back in september i ordered 100 adult mice from rodentpro and they were dark mice, smelly, and covered in wood shavings and feces. and the bags were cracked. i gave them a second chance and i am glad i did, i ordered a bag of 50 and they came in today. 50 clean white mice, as for the smell ill post back later.

I have had the same experience with Rodent Pro. Their product isn't entirely consistent in quality. I believe this is because they contract out some of the production and some producers do a better job of packaging than others. That's one of the reasons I have gone to a different supplier.

that would explain why i got dirty mice. i only buy from them because they are cheaper, yunno why go the mall when you can buy pretty much the same thing for cheaper at wallmart

and i just checked and they dont smell at all. the last batch would stink up the room when you opened the freezer.

..............that rodentpro is much cheaper and i have found big cheese rodent factory is about the same price,BUT the biggest differance is that BCRF vacuum seals there feeders.i've been told that vacuum sealed feeders kept at 0 degrees will stay fresh for 2 years.and of coarse the more feeders you buy the lower the price per feeder.i recently ordered 750 mouse pinks and it came to 24 cents per feeder to my door.

another thing i could never understand is that i live in michigan and rodentpro would charge me MORE for ground shipping than BCRF would for air shipping.i have never received feeders from BCRF that were less than perfect,just my experiences.have fun!
