anyone know a good place to buy frozen mice online. I used tripple 8 3 times, first time was ok, I'd ordered Freckled (my leo) off them, they used TNT and it arrived the next morning and the mice were still nice and frozen. The second time I had some trouble they used parcel force and the driver ran out of time on deliveries and went back to depot i got them the monday after defrosted and smelly, had to phone tripple 8 and they sent out a new order which got delivered but were begining to defrost. Third time i paid extra for faster delivery they sent it out with Parcel Force again and i had more problems and they were delivered to me half defrosted. So I'm looking for a new place to buy online as the rep shop doesnt do what they call "inbetween sizes" so mouse and pyes food i need to order online. Anyone know anywhere thats more reliable? lol preferably one that doesnt use parcel force to deliver XD

I use Tsm too, their food quality is the best I have seen, never had any snakes refuse it. Delivery isn't too bad, and its special next day, 12 quid if you order less than 125 quid worth.

A&N get my recomendation too - ignore what seems to be a high delivery cost, it is more than offset by their cheaper mouse prices

I myself have just received my first order from A & N Frozen Foods. The rat weaners and mice fluffs and jumpers all arrived fully frozen and very well packed. The rats and mice look excellent. Although delivery is £20 or £24 depending on box size the actual prices of the rodents are excepiontal. I have saved £86+ on this order compared to my local pet shop.

Tried to contact http://anfrozenfoods.co.uk several times to discuss my needs. Unable to get through despite trying over last 36 hrs. Will therefore be buying elsewhere.

I tried both numbers and left message to contact me back. No reply so after having a lengthy discussion with an alternative supplier i will buy from there. Hopefully their goods will be as top notch as their customer service has been.

Contacting A & N by email is the way to go. I emailed them several times and had replies later the same day.
