    Re: frozen mice in mini fridge

    Freezers are supposed to be 0*, and refrigerators are supposed to be 40*. While water freezes @ 32*, that's not optimal for storage & if the power goes
    off you're in trouble fast.

    I don't know what your budget is, but they make mini deep-freezers too . .

    my budget right now is about $250 for the entire set up :/ $55 for the enclosure, $100 for the RHP, and probably around $100 for everything inside the enclosure

    You might find something on your local craigstlist, too. We found a nice one for $40. If you get the kind that opens from the front, you can put stuff on top of it. Even throw a small table cloth on it to conceal it and make it a night stand or something. Good luck!

    Not to "stir the pot" but IF there is room in the main freezer, is there any chance you could use it for mice IF you kept them double-boxed so she NEVER
    sees them & they aren't 'near' her food? I've kept frozen rodents (well-wrapped) in my freezer along with my food for decades...no issues at all.
