Rodent pro or big cheese?
Which do you perfer? My mom getting sick of driving me to the pet store to buy frozen mice, but I'm unfortunately too young to drive... or breed pytons because my parents think that they will "choke me in my sleep". -sniffle- Ah well, I will eventually. But enough of that, which one has better quality?
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
The Mouse Factory. Rodent Pro is OK if you like bags of mice and turds that stink of urin. I don't know anything about big cheese. The Mouse Factory's prices are a bit higher than Rodent Pro, but the shipping is less so it comes out to about the same. Even if the Mouse Factory was twice as much, I'd still buy from them.
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
I always buy my rodents, rabbits, and fowl from RodentPro. I love their quality honestly, and my snakes are very healthy. All of my snakes eat RodentPro feeders....
....if only they sold pigletts :D.........
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
Do to the free shipping they offer (when purchasing over $100) I'm going to try American Rodent next time I get paid.
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
The only one I've ever ordered from was The Mouse Factory. Amazing quality, amazing shipping, Edna rocks!
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
The question was Rodent Pro vs. Big Cheese. Rodent Pro couldn't hold Big Cheese's jock strap. Big Cheese is the best in the business.

Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
I didn't like their shipping costs and prices. I don't use either one.
I've read and heard here that RP had problems with icky/dirty/skinny prey items.
I put together a table of the different sizes, prices, shipping costs, times for eight different companies and after comparing all the different things, I started buying from The Mouse Factory.
They're vacuum packed in trays (not individually) but I've had friendly, excellent service, the deliveries are either early or on time, they've always been frozen solid when they've arrived, and this from TX to Oregon. There's only been one time they were out of stock on the jumbos for Hera.
Edna will keep getting my biz.
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
RodentPro sucks IMHO. I've ordered from them twice. First time they didn't use enough dry ice so half of the order had thawed out. Plus the sizine was awful; in a bag of fuzzy mice, I had pinkies all the way to small adult mice. I understand a little size variation, but that is unacceptable. So I gave them a 2nd chance. Same thing; thawed order again; sizing was better. But recieving a thawed out order is unacceptable.
So I've switched to Big Cheese and they're great! Always arrives frozen solid, plus they vaccum seal their bags. I like this because I feel more confident ordering a larger order and having them stay sealed up in the freezer for a longer time.
Big Cheese all the way!
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
I have ordered from RP twice. Once was just for some feeder rabbits for my boa and the other was for plenty rats. My rats did have urine stains on them as well as missing limbs for some reason. I was not impressed with their size either. Most were rather underweight.
Re: Rodent pro or big cheese?
I've done 3 orders for rats with rodent pro, big cheese, and American rodent. The only one I was ever satisfied with is rodent pro. The big cheese order smelled horrible and the American rodent order came in with half the order thawed and at least 20% of the rats are smaller than what I ordered with a few not even close to what I ordered. I'm gonna go with RP next time since they're the only ones who have seemed to get it right.
