As a reptile owner, you know that it is in the nature of your animal to prefer live food. After all, snakes, iguanas, etc. naturally need fresh meat in large quantities. But buying live feed mice on a regular basis can become quite expensive in the long run. An excellent alternative to live food is frozen mice, rats and fish, because frozen food is much cheaper and, like live food animals, still completely preserved. It is important for the reptile to perceive its prey as such.

The advantage of frozen food is that most of the vitamins are preserved. It is also naturally rich in valuable proteins. However, you should always store frozen food in the freezer. This way, it will keep for several months, a great advantage over live animals, which often have to be bred. Before feeding, you should thaw the frozen food gently to eliminate any parasites and bacteria. However, if you store the food at -18 degrees Celsius, all harmful substances will normally be destroyed anyway. Maxi Zoo ensures that the goods arrive in perfect condition by delivering them properly with dry ice. If you break the cold chain, it is strongly recommended that you use the food immediately.

Turtles are still one of the most popular terrarium animals. They don’t usually eat small animals whole, but Maxi Zoo’s range includes specially developed, species-appropriate frozen food for them too. A mixture of seafood, larvae and leafy vegetables is just right for your pet.
Frozen mice are also suitable as food for cats, as this corresponds to their natural, species-appropriate diet. However, it is always important to adapt the size of the food animal to the needs of your cat and to always keep an eye on the overall nutritional balance of your pet. Would you like to buy frozen mice at a low price? In the Maxi Zoo online shop, you can find frozen foods in different sizes. This way you can guarantee your pet a species-appropriate and high-quality diet.
