oh and i looked at rodentpro.com and they have a price quote that im looking at. for a baby corn what can i get. for example, i heard you shouldnt freeze stuff for more than 6 months. so i figure i get a years worth of food at once to save shipping. now im looking at mice. pinkies are 100/pack, large pinkies are the same, and so on up to hoppers. now what will my snake be eating (just one). i plan to feed a tiny bit more often. every 5 days. so 1 pkg of small pinkies, 1 of large, and 2 fuzzies? will that be 1 years worth of food? im looking at the space taken up in the boxes and Im wondering if I shouldnt just order 3 of every size and resell the stuff to people locally? or is anyone local who can sell me SMALL portions of stuff for my young corn? I am in the Portland Oregon area. Thanks everyone!

how far are you from eugene?
there is a exotic animal on july 9, that is usually how i have been pinking up my mice and rats, you can pick them up a bit cheaper and it cuts out the shipping cost, usually there gobs of frozen feeder companies at them 
but when i do run low there is also a girl here who breeds for feeders, but all she breeds is rats so all i basically get from her are pinkie rats so one feeding my snake snake gets a pinkie rat, then the next feeding he gets a fuzzy mouse.
i have posted the link for the show.

I use a lot of mice and Rodent Pro has done very well by me. I believe they are also an advertiser. Also, you can find good deals at rep shows and look at what you're buying.

i use the mouse factory, i must say i have had very good results with them. to start off with i was getting frozen pinkies from a local pet shop, and 2 times i got spoiled mice, so i opted to order, they even have shipped to my work because i wasnt going to be home that day, i was happy, my boss wasnt, but shes a ditz anyways....LOLbut i also get pinkie rats from time to time
