I really doubt that the mods have nothing better to do than follow you around and censor your posts...They left the shameless plug alone, after all.
If the ***'s were a company name, then it was censored for a reason. The site doesn't need a lawsuit. Its the same as putting down a petstore for their husbandry.
Is it so hard to not be difficult and not give the mods such a hard time for doing their job?

It's nothing personal here, Corey. I'd have sent you a PM explaining it but your inbox is full.
I removed the name since it's site policy not to allow actual names in relation to negative feedback or simialr posts. Just to prevent problems, I changed the business name to asterisks.

Thanks for all the input about the hoppers. After one more look at the 'bloody mess' I noticed that some were even popping open. I'm not too anxious to have mouse guts all over the snake enclosure. And I really don't want to risk any food poisoning. I'm a newbie at snakes, so I prefer not to risk situations that will create unneeded problems.
So.... I chopped off about 5 or 6 hoppers worth from the clump, thawed them and fed them to the friendly neighbourhood skunk who lives under my garden shed. She's got a family to feed, so she probably appreciated it. When I think of some of the things I've seen her eat, those mice were a gourmet meal.
Over the next couple of weeks I'll feed them off to her. Maybe then she'll like me enough to stop spraying my flower beds.

I was gonna suggest donating any you couldn't save to someone with a monitor collection, but the skunk is just as worthy a cause. Baby skunks are very cute, and can be tame - so can the mother, espeially if you are feeding them, they can start to act like cats.
We once took a headless chicken, that was donated to the zoo from a local farmer, out to a mother fox we knew of. It then occured to me, that if farmers saw a fox den with chicken feathers, they may poison the fox thinking it had been preying on chickens. So, there I was, out cleaning up chicken feathers after the fox was done with it.
Yes, I kind of sidetracked.

LOL!! I've done stuff like that, Ryan! I rent a house on a chicken farm so I don't DARE do anything like that while I'm here. There's a family of skunks that lives in the barn across from me and the babies are OH SO CUTE!! Little bundles of black and white fur with bright beady eyes! I try to make sure they aren't around when I let the dogs out at night... but I think they might actually be "friends" with the dogs! LOL! I saw the mom walk about 5 feet away from one of my dogs, who just watched her walk past like it was a regular occurance. Mom skunk glanced at the dog when she walked past but didn't seem to be hurrying. I'm just thankful that the dogs have never been sprayed!
Anyways... sorry... went off topic there... LOL!
BTW... I agree... baby skunks are WELL worth the cause! I wouldn't suggest feeding any of the mice to your reptiles... they don't sound all that healthy. :P
Take care
