www.bigcheeserodents.comOnce you have all the cage and accessory equipment for your pet, you still have to feed them. Heading out to the store every week or two to get another order of mice can be burdensome, and driving home with a fresh batch of mice right next to your new-bought groceries is unfavorable for many. The Big Cheese makes that regular commitment easier. Order frozen freezer mice, rats or day-old chicks. They package their rodents with steps in place to reduce the hassle that comes with a freshly frozen stock, pre-freezing them to prevent clumping in large packs or packing larger ones on trays for the same reason. They are also packed in sealing packages, giving them a shelf life of up to two years.Related: Best Places To Buy Men's Dress Socks In DFW
