I'm going broke feeding my eight snakes. What is the best place to get good, fairly priced frozen mice??

I have found that the best way is to find Rodent Pro at a local reptile show or something so you can avoid shipping. Shipping is the major killer of ordering frozen rodents. Past that I still recommend Rodent pro, but Big Cheese I hear is good as well.

See if your pet store has a stockpile of F/T in the back room. It will be cheaper that way. Prices are probably higher where you are than in Tucson, but I buy live rats & have the shop staff fresh-kill for me, then freeze them at home & it only costs a quarter a day per snake (I have 5). I feed full adults every 3rd week, young adults every 10th day & babies every 5th day while they're on mouse pinks, then as the food gets bigger the time gets farther apart until they're on 6"-7" long, 2.5"-3" diam rat pups, which they get for the rest of their life.
Hope this helps!

A reptile show is the best place to buy your frozen mice and rats. My reptile feeding bill equates to about 60 bucks a month (Indies and Cribos). I can’t afford to pay for shipping and packaging also.

I vote Reptile show……
