I didn't understand the subject line......Are you ready to sell mice and need to know going prices??

When I first started in the rodent business, I checked prices on many rodent breeder websites to get an average price for each size I intended to sell. I also got an idea of the weight ranges of each size. Then I called pet shops and explained who I was and asked what they were paying for feeders. I also talked to some local reptile breeders. I found that the average internet price was about the going rate in my area(Maryland). This is not necessarily the same for all areas of the country so you need to call around in your area. Once your into it, you will learn what people are paying in your area just by talking to others.

Be aware that live animals sell for more than frozen. It doesn't make any sense but an adult live mouse is worth about double what you'll get for an adult frozen mouse.
