    F/T mice gone bad?

    I took a mouse out today to thaw for one of my snakes and noticed these white spots I've never noticed before.

    They look almost like fungus or bacteria colonies, is this possible, and should I not feed it to my snake? Here's a pic



    And here's one on the tail



    Could it just be freezer burn?

    When I read the first sentence I first though 'freezer burn', but after looking at the pictures it doesn't look like that. I'd toss it for sure

    Wow. I've never seen anything like that. I personally wouldn't feed it to my snake. I would toss it.

    X2 very odd, doesn't look like feeder freezer burn I've seen before either. I'd toss too.
