Can you get a size reference pic for both the prey and snake.. Put a lighter or phone etc next to each one..

However I'd say a baby brb could handle a fuzzy no problem normally.

[desipooh.12]

Yes I will do that :)

The way that company "arctic mice" boxes there mice is very nice. They individually bag them. That way they don't stick together when you pull one out to defrost it. And it has an individual bag to defrost it in. Only problem is they are expensive (petsmart carries them)

Yes! That's what I hate the most, for 6small fuzzys is like $14
I'm like what the hell they are mice not golden eggs .. I need
To find a better source to get mice ..
Petco is a little bit more cheaper then petsmart

Order them online or post an ad on craigslist looking for mice. Go to your local reptile show and pic up a bag of 100 and your good for a year or 2. Petco and petsmart is if you suddenly run out or need a size you don't have in your fridge. You will pay alot at once, but save all the trips to your local petco and alot of money in the end.

[desipooh.12]

That's a good idea,
Mmm in my city we don't have Reptile shows,
Its very rare that ppl even own reptiles here,
I want to go to a Reptile Expo so bad but I'd have to travel far ..

Oh & I just feed em that Large mouse & it ate it ! Gobbled em up!
I made a video of it lol
Its nice & fat now :)

like SMY said, order online, or try to connect with other people going to an expo. for 14$ I can get at least a dozen adult mice at an expo, or close to 25 fuzzes/pinkies. Another alternative is to look around your area for local family owned pet stores, they often carry mice (both frozen and live) substantially cheaper than the big box stores :P

[desipooh.12]

Yeah I posted an ad on Craigslist,
Thank you :)

wow that is expensive, I would get yourself a separate freezer (if you don't have room in you current one) and buy in bulk

[desipooh.12]

Yeah tell me about it pshh lol
But that's what I plan on doing ..
What's a good website?

[KORBIN5895]

F4you.Clanteam.com (http://f4you.clanteam.com/F4You/Feeders/Feeders.html) that's where all of my feeders come from. The owner is a hard nosed tool but hell take care of you.

[desipooh.12]

K I'll check it out ! Thank you :)

Wow. I clicked on that link expecting the prices to be super low because everything seems to be cheaper in the states with there being more options, etc. However, I was surprised to discover I pay quite a bit less than those prices! Plus I just pick them up locally, no shipping. Who'da thunk. That made my day. Lol. *will stop complaining about feeder prices* Hahaha..

Lol. That's Canadian. As a matter of fact I live in Canada. It's the cheapest local place and and I can't find anywhere in Canada that is cheaper and ships.
