    A newbie q about f/t...

    I had a ball about 5 yrs ago and finally my life has been graced with another! I didn't know about f/t back then and have been using them since I acquired my new ball of joy. (lol) Its still a relatively new process but she just jumped right on it each time. My question is how long do they last? I was going to change her feeding schedule by one day, since she's nearly made us late for church twice trying to feed her on Sunday. So Friday night I put the f/t in the fridge to thaw intending to feed her sat. Now I'm questioning changing her feeding schedule and figured I could just feed her Sunday night. So, in the fridge, will it last thawed for two days? Thanks for all replies!

    I think if it's in the fridge, you wouldnt want to go longer than two days.

    Frozen can last up to 6 months in a freezer bag, I believe up to a year in a vacuum sealed freezer bag.

    A simple solution, on Sunday morning place the frozen rodent to thaw in the same room as your "ball of joy", that way you are pre-scenting the room also, feed Sunday evening

    Thanks so much guys, I know they have a tendency to be finicky eaters, and right now shes doing great so I'm going to keep her eatin on Sunday. I just wanted to make sure the mousey would be ok for her. I appreciate the comments!
