i was searching the web for reptile food and this came up do you think that it's a good deal? right now i'm getting pinks for $0.50 each and fluffs for around $0.67 do you think that these mice would be better than the one's i'm currently getting?

I think 'Ice Mice' is UK based, Shanley. So not much use to you.:(

It can be quite expensive at times.... especially if you have a large collection, as some of our members do.

I use Rodentpro.com

and I love it!

I order 500 pinkies at a time, it comes out to a little bit over $100.

I buy mine 200 at a time, that costs me £40-. So I'm paying 20p each which is a pretty good price I think, and I don't have to mess about with postage as the place is near enough that I can collect.

Around here, they cost €0,25 each. That should be around 40 cents converted to dollars...
The quality sometimes really sucks, so I decided to breed multimammals. Its fun, they have an great attitude and they are very very prolific breeders!

I purchase from Mice Direct and drive to pick them up. Pinkies are 16 cents each by the 100 count. They do ship, but I don't know the shipping rate.

jeeze, if buying frozen was that cheap here I would be more inclined to buy the pinkies as opposed to being so intent on breeding my own lol. I like breeding my own for quality control reasons, but buying pinkies here is .99 each! nevermind if I needed anything larger lol

I buy for a couple of other people in addition to the stuff for my snakes, so I get an order of a bunch of different sizes
my supplier gives me discounts and some of the shipping costs are defrayed
the price per pinky without any discounts is $0.25
I really like the quality of rodents I get from them, as well as the friendly customer service
