Ordering frozen food...?

[Mr.James]

Does anyone order frozen mice/rats through the post or something similar? Is it possible and if so how do they keep them frozen?

Help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

froz mice n rats

we could do it bi air but it woud work out pretty dear

 

[Mr.James]

Na thanks stuartandconnie but you are WAY to far away, & it would cost a small fortune.

I'd order them through the petshop but to be honest I don't trust them and they are over priced.

I need 20 fuzzy mice, and 10 pinkies.

Anyone?

 

[Mr.James]

Does anyone use the pieces brand mice? & has anyone found any problems with them? Thats what the petshops get..

Pisces starts off fine but often ends up worses off after storage and freight. Find a local supplier. If you give a more specific location locals might contact you or tell you their nearest distributer.

what area are you located, as this may help with replys.

 

[Mr.James]

I'm on the far south coast NSW. so somewhere around here, or as far as sydney & canberra maybe ok for freight. I know the local petshop can order them but thats what I thought about the storage & freight or pisces..& I remember someone telling me they do occasionally smell bad & not much good. Unless they are fresh.

There is a local guy who breeds rats.. but would those pinkie rats be too large for 8 month old stimson's?

 

[Mr.James]

Anyone know the size comparison of a pinky rat compared to a fuzzy mouse?

Pink rats would be fine for an 8 month old stimmi .
I would just find a local breeder , much cheaper and better than a pet shop IMO .
