Re: Is 12 hours too long?
Im realy bad, I half fill the tub with HOT water, then put all of the rats and mice in tupperware with paper towels, dont want wet rats, and let them thaw for 30 mins then I fill the sink and submerge the containers for 15 mins. everyone is hot and ready to eat by then. Good thing water is cheap here.:)

Yeah, I've had to feed mine wet mice on several occasions- I just wrap the rodent in a paper towel for a few seconds so it's not dripping, and my normal takes it fine.
