Snake Won't Eat Rat

[gdhc21]

What do I do with the rat if my BP won't eat it?

[Zombie]

Freeze it for next time. Feed it to another reptile. If its alive, house it comfortably until next feed. Give it away. Or discard it

[ewaldrep]

if it is f/t, do not refreeze it, just suck it up and toss it out and plan on getting another one for the next feeding time, other than that same as above

[Flikky]

I refreeze the rat until next trash day and then throw it out. I hate doin' it

[Zombie]

Refereezing a rat 1 time won't hurt. You definitely don't want to freeze more than 2 times tho...

Refreezing is fine once. You may go through a lot of rats if you throw out everyone that is refused the first time. They say refreezing breaks down tissue and makes it more "gamey" which some snakes like.

-wonder who did taste testing for that

I house Leftover comfortably until if my snake is ready for it to become Dinner again. I'm currently housing one now.
