    Petco feeders are insanely pricey. Check your local Craiglist and FB reptile forums to see if there's someone close by who is selling feeders.

    There are many places to buy online. You'll have to pay more up front to get a box of frozen feeders sent to you, but eventually you'll end up saving money that way.

    I use layne laboratories, through recommendations of people here.

    Of course if you're feeding live that's more difficult.

    i know they are pricey but with gas there & back i can get 3 hoppers for $8 at petco while it's about 100 mi to the closest rodent breeder i can find on craigslist and no one seems to be selling leftover feeders locally

    also I looked at most of those sites most are $40 to ship.... except 1 http://southfloridarodents.com/ but yea no idea about them i did find info on fauna and yea why he try to do those things also the site seems to have alot of names

    If you're sticking with Petco go with small mice, and you may need to feed two of them. I'm not sure of what all sizes they carry. If they have bigger ones I'd go for it. Hatchlings could easily take the small mice from there.
