After dropping Katana off at her ATC Squadron, I looked in the Pets at home store to check out their Jumbo Mice and was pleasantly surprised £4 for 4. The size was good too, Fea could manage easily but I just got 25 large :)
I will try one, the large I got 2 weeks go was covered in blood, not that it mattered to my Boa |

Yeah I've bought these too before now. They kept bursting, I was doing nothing different but nearly every single time Spot had one he'd burst it. Gone back to my reptile shops now and these dont burst. The only reasonable explanation I could think of is they have been frozen and defrosted several times weakening the entire structure of the mouse. This maybe just because I live in Ireland and they are transported longer distances to get here. |

They don't do bulk sales, packs of 4 is the most. I think snakes vary..my two locals only sell lizards |
