Mice?

I have my mice in the freezer and all of sudden the freezer stopped working and now its just at the refrigerators temperature maybe a bit cooler and the mice are kinda thawed out, I was wondering if it would still be ok to feed my snake the mice or should i get new ones? They've been in there for about a week since it has happened.

This is just me....I don't have any scientific or technical knowledge to back up what I'm going to say. I would not feed my family meat that has been sitting in the fridge for more than a couple of days...much less a week. So I would probably go ahead and throw the mice out as well. As well as anything else in the freezer that could spoil.

If it were just a day or so, I'd say it would be ok to refreeze them (with the increased risk of exploding meeces in the future)....but after a week or more....I'd toss 'em.

Sorry.

Ok thank you. :)
