Best frozen rodents

KingOz May 15, 2003 12:00 PM

I have used many diffrent suppliers of frozen rodernts over time, and I have found Frozen Rodent to have the best mice (largest, most wellfed). Now, frozen rodent suppliers are popping up all over the place...I am trying to find a supplier that has nice fat mice, but seals them in small groups so the whole "chipping experience" can be avoided. One of my snakes must think that mice naturally come in pieces (my other two are such aggressive feeders that I do not give them small pieces, ie. leggs, as they may over shoot and hit the hemostats).
So, has anyone found a supplyer of nice fat mice that are frozen in small groups?

I've been using BigCheese and have been able to separate them
without breaking off any pieces. Probably they vacuum pack prior
to freezing, otherwise moisture in the air might condense on the
mice while they are freezing, causing them to stick. When I
receive an order I separate them into small ziplocks anyway.
