Quick one... Do you take from freezer:
- and leave to thaw overnight or
- shortly before feeding and thaw in hot water for 5 mins

I always let them thaw at room temps then just before feeding I warm the food item up in warm water. I've never had a snake refuse feed this way (touch wood). |

I defrost smaller mices naturally. I always defrost at room temp if I can, specially with smaller mice. Thawing over night is ott unless feeding in morning, pinkies will just dry out over night lol |

I always defrost in hand hot water, I think it's far quicker and the bug count is much lower, not that it matters too much to snakes. |

I always take out and thaw naturally in a tub.
Pinkies should only take an hour or so, bigger mice I leave overnight. I've never used hot water for fear of poaching the meat.  |
