    Yes, it's freezer burn.. LIke stated above, it usually happens when they have been partially thawed, then refroze. It won't hurt your reptiles at all...
    I sell them at a discounted rate when it happens to me, or just use them up myself...

    Re: Is this freezer burn or something else??
    Thanks everyone! I guess I'll go ahead and feed them to my snakes then. There's actually a new reptile shop opening soon and I was able to get in contact with the owner to get me some frozen rats. If all goes well then I can continue to do business with him instead. I wish there were more shows in my area..I really liked the rats from Layne Labs that I got before.

    Well, if it helps, you cna't judge a shop by the fact that the pinks have freezer burn... If they open and close the same bag, they're gonna get freezer burn. I make mine in packs of 12/25/50, etc so it doesn't happen, but I'm sure once they start using them at home and resealing, they probably get a little freezer burn...
    The rats and mice get it too, you just can't see it for the fur...
