Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if the forum can give me some insight as to the general costs of shipping frozen mice. I am looking to buy a bag of 100 peach fuzz pinkie mice. I notice that every on line seller gets about $40-$45 for shipping, even when it is sent UPS ground, which should costs about $12. I realize that this also includes handling and packaging but I was curious if there were any suppliers that were a bit less expensive.

Who do you guys use and does anyone have a recommendation. I am looking at Mice Direct and Rodent Pro.

Thanks
 
some places will offer specials and give free shipping to certain states so if you keep an eye out for specials, you can get a killer deal. also you can go to shows and buy frozen and you will not have to pay for shipping. You might also want to see if there are any places near you that sell frozen. I just found out that I am 5 minutes away from gourmet rodent when I ordered from them and gave them my address.
 
I wound up ordering through micedirect.com Their price was ~$20 cheaper than mouse factory.

I got a bag of 100 fuzzy pinks for 8.00 and the shipping was $42.

Mouse factory wanted $35 for the same animals and $40 for shipping. We'll see what they look like when they arrive.
