    How are you thawing the rats? I have a stubborn blood that will only eat if her meal is delivered really warm. I feed her first but sometimes she still has an issue so I will warm the meal in hot water again and that does the trick.

    I use a ziploc bag and warm water. I usually just leave them in the same water until thawed which sometimes cools to much for her liking so I will give hers a second hot water treatment to warm hers up just a bit more. That always does the trick.

    Thumbs up

    And he is finally eating! Though he dragged the rat (f/t) from the top of his hide into the water dish for some reason. No need to drown it, dude; it's already dead. Maybe he's trying to tell me he'd prefer his meals with dipping sauce, like a nice garlic aioli...

    This stuff is almost good enough to make a dead rat appetizing...
