Question - about feeding

Was curious to know, how long can you leave the rat in the bp's enclosure. George hasn't touched it, I thawed & warmed his rat up, like usual.

Did you do the zombie dance with it to see if could be tricked into thinking it was alive? Pretty much for me when my snake hadn't touched the f/t within 30 minutes( when It got a little chilled) and no luck with the zombie dance, my snake was not going to eat that feeding.

As I read this, i was laughing:rofl:, I did try that zombie dance... he poked his head out, & went back to his hiding. He made himself a new hiding spot, under the newspaper. Maybe he is going through a shed... all the temps are fine, & his enclosure is clean.

So I guess I get to throw away that poor rat..lol

thanks

I usually warm it up again really really well and offer. It the snake doesn't eat it in an hour then I toss the rat and wait for the following week :)

Thank you... I believe George may be going through a shed, he has been hiding in his spot for 2 days now.
Will offer him a rat, next week.:gj:
