    Frozen Pinky Mice - Web source recommendations?

    Can anyone recommend a good source at a good price online for frozen pinky or fuzzy mice? I'd like to order 100-200 delivered at the best price possible.

    Amy and Jewels can both benefit from those. I can vacuum seal them in 25ct packages for long term freezing and just open one at a time. I have a full size upright freezer that can go down to about -20 F. The door shelves are empty. The racks have meat for me.

    I want to present that best price to my childhood friend who offers lots of frozen rodents at a pet store she owns and see if she can beat or match the price. IF not, I'll order online.

    Steve's got some deal with really good prices, but I think you need huge quantity
    for myself, I decided to not go quite with the best price, because the one time I did, I was not happy with what I got (fecal matter and bedding included) and neither were some of my snakes, so now I stick with a company that has never yet disappointed me, but the prices are higher than some others that I've used
    a big chunk of the money spent is for shipping anyhow and in view of that a few cents more per rodent doesn't seem as big a deal
    after all this, here are links
    the place I use: http://themousefactory.com/
    the place I sometimes use when Edna and Ray have run out of what I need: http://bigcheeserodents.com/

    I ordered from Stephi (mtolypetsupply) a forum member. The mice came quickly and my snakes are all devouring them!

    I found out that they want $111 to ship them. You got to be kidding me.

    Rodent pro can ship me 200 peach fuzzies for $52.82 total cost. That's more like it but I think I'll shop around for a local source and see what they can do.

    Not to brag or anything, but I have a local supplier that gets me pinks for just over $.10 each, no shipping charges!

    You may want to see if there are any snake breeders near you that either produce their own mice or will let you piggy back their orders to save on shipping.

    Seems the cheapest I can find on the web still puts pinkies at over $3 each delivered. Ridiculous. I'll be getting them from my friend's pet store. She charges $1 each.
