Id like to take this opportunity to say....I HATE PET STORES... I dont think Ive said that before [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
Diane, Ive bought mice AND rats that when thawed, smelled of dead deer on the side of a sun baked road... yes, mice AND rats...its happened multiple times... mad because Ive lost money??? yes.... but even "madder" because they tried to pass that rotten animal off as acceptable for MY snakes... which AIN'T happeining...
So...in knowing that, I suggest you find a good quality breeder of rodents...luckily Rare Earth is near me so I bypass ALL petstores which are closer to me, so that I can get rodents I KNOW are quality... Pay a few bucks more?... #$%^$%^$%^$%^& skippy..
For real tho, Ive seriously been considering starting my own colony of rodents, so that I can be positive of the source they come from... for only one snake, you need maybe 2 tanks so I'd definatly recommend it to you... I have a few more snakes so it'd take a little more space, and if money wasnt an issue, Id have multiple colonies right now......
Take my advice, never walk through the door of a pet store... trust me.... they will kill your animal as best they can.. it's their nature... money not life...
Find a breeder...or.. become the breeder.. I must say, as 'sacreligous' as it sounds, rats are very cool animals... I love'em.. Like Mr.Boaphile sez... "they're like little dogs".... very true.. and easy to breed... Like a car, noone cares about your boa as much as you, so dont let someones lack of care feed your boa....."create" the feed yourself... [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
