    I buy my frozen mice in bulk and they are double wrapped right next to my food in my freezer. I but one year worth at a time, and I keep 6 months in my regular freezer, and the next 6 months in deep freezer. I pay around 60 cents per mouse.

    I do this too, though it still makes me nervous no matter how many times the rats are wrapped. Seriously considering some of these mini freezers people are posting links to...

    A chest freezer is a great investment, snake food or no!

    We keep rats in ours, but also any deer my husband happens to take down during hunting season, any excess veggies we get from the garden... all kinds of stuff!

    That's the one I was looking at as well - they say it'll go on special every once in a while for $100.

    Is it technically unkosher even if its not your food? Is it unkosher to keep chilled dog/cats food in the fridge?

    I believe so, since it would come into contact with the kosher food.

    Exclamation ***Conclusion***

    Hello everyone! OP here.

    I just want to thank you all so much for your suggestions and comments, and for those of you wondering about keeping kosher:
    -Meat and dairy cannot be mixed together.
    -Most fish are kosher, and fish is pareve; it's neither dairy or meat, so it can be mixed with either.
    -A mammal is only kosher if it has cloven hooves AND chews its own cud.
    -Some people only allow kosher food in their kitchen (and dining room), but in my case, anywhere else in the house is okay.

    But that's not the point of this reply.

    I wanted to let all of you Canadians who want to keep mice in separate freezers that I found a great, cheap mini-freezer!

    I can't believe how many people responded!

    This thread isn't necessarily closed, though, so feel free to post and ask about the subject!
