Trying New Feeder Source

[GoFride]

My feeder guy, who has been great, is in the process of closing shop
So i've been researching feeder sources, comparing prices, looking up reviews, etc. My big girls are three meals away from emptying the freezer, so I placed an order with Loxahatchee Rodents. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this works out well - if not, I'll be trying Big Cheese next.

I placed my order yesterday, the order was processed and shipped today, and I should have it tomorrow. Quick response - so far, so good.

It's Florida. In August. I mean, it's hot here! It can get so hot outside, I just want to take off my skin and sit in my bones! I would consider Florida in August to be a good "extreme case scenario" for shipping anything frozen. My feeders got delivered this morning while I was at work, and sat outside all day until I got home a little while ago. When I opened the box, I found plenty of dry ice, very good insulation, and the feeders were all still hard frozen - no problems at all. The feeders were clean and healthy looking, uniformly sized, neatly lined up like little furry soldiers, and packed in vacuum sealed trays. These were shipped in a generic looking plain brown box that did NOT have the words RATS or REPTILE in big, bolded letters (for those of you with "neighbor issues") - just a plain brown box. Pricing/shipping was very competitive - with FL sales tax included, it worked out to $1.18 per feeder.
