Exploding rat during feeding...

[Finn0208]

Eww, I didn't think it was good to thaw one out and then refreeze it? Am I correct in thinking that? It does gripe my ass when I thaw one and he chooses not to eat that week, that means I have to throw it away

I have never had a health problem with refreezing but you have to use the same precautions you would with any raw meat. If you think it may be bad toss it. Exploding rats are always a possibility when feeding FT. I have even had a live rat explode due to a bad strike and a super "violent" constriction.

depending on how it was thawed and how long it was set out, you CAN refreeze a feeder but it's not really recommended. i've had to refreeze a few feeders when i was running low before.
