Is it ok to feed rats that have been 3 days in the fridge?
Long story short: due to various family reasons I had to go to my house on Wednesday (I keep my BP on my apartment) and usually I feed her on fridays, but I fell insanely sick, and couldn't make it to my apartment until today. The thing is that I asked my roommate to take a rat pup from the freezer and put it in the fridge on friday morning (thinking I would get there Friday).
The question is: Is it ok to feed rat pups that have been 3 days in the fridge (this would be their first thawing)?
PS: I just weighed Volvagia and she is 111g  not bad for a july hatchling, right?

Yes it would be ok, but i would try not to make a habit of it.
Check out what's available at

Cool! Thanks!
It wasn't on purpose, I was very sick and couldn't make it

Perishable food is safe to eat for 7 days if kept at 41 F and 5 days at 45 F. No problem keeping a rat in fridge for 3...

Hehe, we have two mid June hatchlings (0.1 normal, 0.1 spider) and they are 293g and 308g respectively.

Should have been fine, but better safe than sorry I suppose.

Wow... I thought 111g was good 
I threw it out because I overheated it, and it 'exploded' lol

Those the ones you got off us? If so, glad to see they are growing like mad for you!
How is the hairless doing?
