Huh I haven't had any issues with rodentpro, although I've only ordered from them once. I was looking into Layne but for the price, I could buy day old quail at RP for much less & they process them the same way so it was a no brainer for me. My cats love the birds & are still kicking. They are at a lot of reptile shows so I guess if they sold crappy products, they wouldn't last very long. I've never heard of those other websites but then again I'm not looking for mice or rats. I mainly buy day old quail cause I know my cats will eat them. I will buy some ground whole mice from Hare Today one of these days & see how the kitties like that.
