Disappointed with Big Cheese rodents?
For years I used rodent pro and not 1 issue. I stopped buying when they had that outbreak of something and bred my own for 2 years. I also used JPC boas since he was a few hrs away. Both places were good.
I recently bought 50 fuzzy hoppers from Big Cheese. Totally disappointed when I took out my first hopper to thaw for a baby boa. It weighed 4.1 grams and should have been 7 grams min I believe. Next week I took another out and once again, way light at 5.3 grams. I decided to take out all and weigh individually. 30 were underweight. Several at 6.5 grams and I would not complain to them. But I found 3.9 gram ones and many between 4-5 grams. Is this common to sell so many underweight rodents? Out of 50, only a few were actually over 9 grams. Hoppers from them are 7-12 grams I believe. I did up send pics on a scale and a count of underweights. They said they will send me more when I reorder and not sure I will buy from them again. Trust is earned, not given. And so many underweights shows workers are not too worried. You can tell the difference between a 4 gram and a 7 gram pretty easily. So why so many under! Disappointed with big cheese. |
Hey Rich that does suck that they can't hit a average weight of what u wanted. I feel most of the older rodent outfits just don't care anymore cause there is such a boom with new buyers. In the last 10yrs I've tried many different outfits & with very little success. Most recent was cold Blooded Cafe. Last batch I got from them had a rotten smell like they sat to long before being put in the freezer. When I contacted thm & told them my disappointment they offered me $5 credit towards next purchase. WTF! my order was close to $500 & tht was not the first time I ordered. They said thts all they can offer with the influx of orders. Not a great business model. Curious If it would have been different if forest was still arnd. Either way it sucks. Now I completely breed my own & sell.
I'm in pa. If ur interested send me a message. Have a good one Chris B and S Reptilia |
