Is it safe to start feeding mice from a different supplier? Is there really a difference or what? I was just wondering if it was okay that if they're (the snake) used to one type of mouse, one from another supplier may be too different for them. Thanks!

I've heard of some snakes refusing to eat mice of a different color than what they are used to, but other than that, as long as the mice are healthy then there shouldn't be any difference.
