    Do you have a livestock feed store or a Co-op nearby? They can special order you some in.

    I feed all my rats Nutro Natural Vegetarian Dog Food. They've been doing great on it, I like it better than Mazuri personally.

    The guys over at National Pet Pharmacy sell 200lbs of Native Earth (high quality lab block, same as Mazuri) for $85 and only $5 to ship, that's only $.45 a pound, unless you are buying by the ton I don't think you could find a better deal, even at your local feed store.

    Or if you don't need that much or don't want to stock up you can order single bags for just $5 shipping to your front door.

    Even cheaper?!?!

    I do pay like 16.85 a bag for it which sucks

    How many bags are on a pallet?

    Where do you buy it?
