    Also if you like feeding large meals this method may not work very well for either.
    No one said 70 but you. and I would still argue that.
    I saw a frozen collection brought back to life AND never had a problem.
    The house was vacant for a couple months, Texas winters are not super cold but the temps in the house were in the low 50s for this entire time with no power.
    19 snakes all alive and still well.
