The best thing to do if you only need a small quantity is to find someone willing to split shipping with you. If you notice with RodentPro, only 4% of the box is taken up with the mice you need. Try craigslist or a friend that has reptiles and see if they'd like to order with you.

As the others said, the dry ice is what makes shipping so expensive.
