I didn't see a thread with comments on Mice Direct, so thought I would add one.
https://micedirect.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=21&zenid=5a26a8ee44435f4c3e6b40337ccf58d3
I was originally going to order from RodentPro, but they have been out of stock of so many items for a long time that I went with Mice Direct. I think the prices are very competitive, and the site is excellent. I particularly like that they provide pictures with scale reference for all of the feeding items. I ordered 500 mice, and 6000 roaches. The shipping and tracking was excellent, and everything arrived in a giant sized cooler, packed with dry ice. The mice themselves are very clean and healthy looking (for frozen mice!).
The only thing that would be beneficial would be a volume calculator similar to the one provided by RodentPro. I thought I was ordering a fairly large amount of stuff, but the shipping container could easily have housed a lot more, which would have been more efficient from a shipping cost perspective (thought the order itself would have been significant).
I would recommend this site and expect to use them again (though I will order more next time to get the best value from the shipping!).
One aside - the frozen roaches are not really liked by any of my lizards and will only be eaten if they are the only thing offered (tegu/skinks/berardies), could be I have fussy eaters, I don't know.
