I live in a small town and Im paying $2 on average per pup. Ive looked into buying in bulk but the cost to ship them is . Plus they wont be on pups all year. In fact my biggest girl will eat two pups at a time and probably needs to be moved up a size. Empty she is a lil over 150g. I was thinking with live I could let the baby rodents grow to the size I need and that way I can keep up with my snakes but I dunno.
