    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am looking for someone who has fuzzy/small rats on a regular basis in the central Ohio area.
Thanks ;)
 
Most of my feeders I buy in bulk but when I need something extra, or I run out of feeders, I go to Captive Born Reptiles on Morse Rd. Terry and Jan usually have plenty on hand and if you call in advance you can be sure to get what you need :thumbsup: .
 
Thanks anyway John and yes I am in Columbus. At least Rodent Pro comes to the Columbus reptile show, but I still have a few who haven't switched to f/t. Hopefully my breeder rats will become a little more prolific ;)

Thanks Ann, looking for rats a bit less expensive than $3/4/6 each though.

yeah, I know what you mean. I really try to keep enough in my freezer from rodent pro. It is great because you can pick it up at the all ohio show and save on shipping. I still go to Terry when I run out though. I have to head there tomorrow to pick up some live for my very stubborn baby balls and I just placed an order with rodent pro this morning to pick up at the show in March.
 
rats

I have a friend that raises rats ( I raise mice and we trade alot) We make the columbus area to the reptile show once a month. He has good prices, are you looking for live or frozen?
E-mail me at [email protected] and I'll let you know the particulars

There is a monthly reptile show on W broad st. thats put on by Don Hamper. Heres a link to his site http://www.pythons.com/hamper/ . Just click on All Ohio Shows. Rodent pro is there every month and they sell, for example, large frozen rats for $1, and large frozen mice for about 13 cents. I have 13 snakes at the moment and I feed everything I have, including 4 large (8'+) snakes, for about $60ish every 5-6 months.

As far as Captive Born is concerned, anyone who thinks puting a 5' alligator in a 55 gal aquarium with 1" of nasty water and a light bulb dangling in by a wire wont get a red cent from me. I actually had to inform them that the gator had busted the bulb and they said it was fine. When I went back 3 days later out of curiousity, it was still there. That place is a hole and should have been shut down a long time ago. Almost everything there is in disgusting conditions and infested with mites.
 
I just wanted to make it clear that im not judging you, Ann, for going there. I just think people ought to know about them. Sorry if I said anything to upset you.

Thank you for thinking of my feelings :eek: , I know some people do not. I am not upset and I totally understand your comments. I do still get my live rodents there and sometimes just visit. Terry and Jan are the ones who got my reptile addiction started years ago and my girls and I adore them and their children.
on another note...I just recieved confirmation of my order with RodentPro for my frozen stuff and Casey will be bringing it to the show on March 10th. :) I hope I have enough to get me through 'til then ;) .
 
Im sure they are good as people. I dont know them. I just think their husbandry habits are horrid.
