    Where do you buy your frozen feeders?

    Hi guys, I'm looking into getting into snake breeding and I'm hoping to get some advice on the best places to buy bulk frozen feeders online. Where do you guys like to buy frozen feeders, and do you have any advice on who not to buy from?

    I buy from cold blooded cafe. Never had an issue with them. The feeders come very well packed and insulated.

    I use Perfect Prey. They're fantastic. Their customer service is fantastic, product is great, shipping and packing are awesome. Pricing is good and definitely worth it.

    This is one of very few companies I would advocate for with no problem.

    Re: Where do you buy your frozen feeders?

    So, just for fun, I decided to do a price comparison with shipping from 3 different frozen rodent distributors and it's kinda jaw-dropping, to be honest.

    Here's my results....Pricing was for 20 jumbo rats.

    Perfect Prey: $117.47 (3 day shipping) - Located in Loxahatchee, FL

    Cold-Blooded Cafe: $95 (3 day shipping) - Located in Indianapolis, IN

    Underground Reptiles: $168.58!!! (3 day shipping) - Located in Deerfield Beach, FL

    Your zip code may show a different price but this was definitely an eye-opener for me.

    Another Perfect Prey buyer here. I've had nothing but good experiences with them so far. They also have smaller quantity options for their orders which is nice!

    Perfect prey is great. The owner, Bill Galloway of Loxahatchee sold me a few pythons too and they are smoking hot.

    I have been using Big Cheese Rodent Factory. The shipping is flat rate, the prices are good, they are only a few hours from me, and they package those things for a trip through Death Valley. Always arrive frozen, probably more frozen than my freezer can pull off.

    I use Big Cheese Rodent Factory because they're very close to me, but they tend to be sold out of some popular sizes (medium rats, etc.) quite often so I fall back on Perfect Prey when that happens. Both are great.
