Yes, if you caught them quickly after death, you could freeze them and use them later. If they sit too long though, they will begin to rot, so the smell might get to you after you've thawed them.

Here's a pic of my rat rack:

It's about 6 feet tall--I'd guess the tubs are about 8-10 inches high? Never really measured them; I don't know how wide/deep they are.

are they cat litter plans ?

i got new tubs now i just need to no what to feed them because i cant get lab blocks all i can get is a seed mix so im goin to make my own ?

No, they are quite a bit larger than cat litter pans.

You can order Mazuri lab block directly from mazuri.com, though beware: the 50 lb bag is going to cost around $30, and the shipping is going to cost about $30. Just check your protein in the seed mix--you want the mommy rats to have a good diet so they can properly feed their babies as well as gain weight back after birthing.

im in ireland so shiping would be more

I use the same rat racks, those tubs are concrete mixing tubs from menards or home depot. Just go to whatever home improvement stores they have in Ireland and check.
