Buying frozen is out of the question since I think that paying over double for shipping than the item your buying is absurd ($14 for a bag of 25 small mice. nearly $40 for s&h). The only local pet store takes horrible care of their reptiles, and the others are about 45 minutes away. No luck finding local breeders either. Of course, mother dearest won't go with me to the 45 minute away from the store. "You've been there before. You can drive there". No mother, driving over once doesn't mean I have it memorized.
Bah.
