Eploding frozen mice??

Yeah I got a picture of the second one that exploded. I am going back tomorrow. I went back to petsmart today and got some. Hopefully I have luck this time

It could be the water you are using is too hot, or they may have thawed at some point before you purchased them and were refrozen.

I'd go back to the store and try to get your money back.
