When you (whomever wishes to answer) buy from petco/smart, are they reselling from a larger distributor or, like, "homegrown" in ziplock bags? Theres a little local place by my folks (local for them, not me) that i'll buy from if i'm visiting, prices are better, but they are just loose rats in baggies. I dont necessarily think one is better than the other, just curious as to how various places do it. I know my petsmart uses rodent gourmet and the petco uses arctic mice
