Hi guys at some point or another we get complacent, and today is my day.

I defrosted the rats for 4 hours and then warmed them up, after feeding 3 of the snakes i checked the rats because one was having trouble hitting the target.

Anyway long story short, the rats although mostly defrosted are still cold to the touch (still a bit frozen), the remaining rats are being left longer but the ones that have taken, should i try to steel back the rats or will they be ok? The rats are sqidgy but not fully defrosted I dont think

Thanks

I did this with Ratchets rat last week after I noticed, I left it in and he is fine, not going to do any damage apart from a little brain freeze :)
