Re: Need Advice?

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.

Re: Need Advice?

I think that will be fine just wait 72 hours before holding her to make sure no regurge happens

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)

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.

Re: Need Advice?

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
