Is this rat too big for my BP? [pics]

Another silly question. Can the rats tail be too stiff to eat? He seems interested in it, a f/t but its taking him a while to attempt to eat it. He's under a night light with lights off, both my snakes seem shy and wanting to eat in peace in the dark but he keeps getting distracted and leaving it too until I wiggle it around again.

As long as it's defrosted for the appropriate amount of time you should be good. I usually defrost my rats in a refrigerator 24 hours day prior to feeding day, day of, I just warm up with a blow dryer for about 10 minutes.
