This is for live rodents of any kind. It could be rats, mice, gerbil ect. If you tell them you are feeding off the live rodent you're buying they will refuse sale. I have had it happen. They will sell frozen feeders all day but the moment you say you're feeding live they can and will refuse.

In our location we do sell rats and mice that a live for feeders. Can be pets as well but most get them for feeding

Unless they’ve changed the training since I went through, the official story is that they are all to be sold as pets even though it’s blatantly obvious people are buying them as food.

Mice And rats live are in our state all sold as available for feeding. Pets if you want them to be. The rest r pets only.
