    First weirded out experience

    Hi all. I just fed Pandora her fourth rat. For some reason it thawed super quick. So I dipped it for minute in hot water. Grabbed it with tongs and blood started dripping. She missed her first strike so I did a re dip in hot water and she took it right away problem was blood covered half the tub. She ate the rat normally. Problem was she was going through the blood then went to her hot hide. I was able to change the newspaper.

    I think she may have blood on her. Will the smell drive her crazy? Should I wash her? Don't want her stressed after feed. I was hoping maybe cleaning her tomorrow evening or the next day. I also think she is in she'd as well.

    HAHAHAHAHA!

    I had not too long ago my balll ate a f/t rat and blood squirted out like mad. He just was happy as a clam and letting it drip all down his sides and climbed all over it. I highly doubt she is stressed and this happens every so often. You don't have to do anything really but a little soak bath or washcloth won't hurt either. Let her digest a few days of course first.

    Thanks. I thought it was a bit cool. My daughter was a bit scared. But yup she was happy as a peach eating the rat.
