    A quick update, if anyone's curious...

    So, I placed the pinky by the tub to defrost at room temps, as advised. After a brief period, I then did the hair dryer trick. Tried it the first time, he was in his hide and didn't come out. Left it in there for a very brief period. Then, took pinky out, and heated again with the hair dryer, then placed him in the tub, right in front of the hide opening. This time I left it there and walked away. Came back about 10 minutes later and it was gone. And, Tynee (snake's name) had his head outside the hide peering out. So, either he gobbled it down quickly, or he dragged it into his hide.

    This morning, I opened up the tub and looked under the hides to make sure pinky was indeed eaten... and, he was... no sign of him.

    Cleaned up the tub, replaced the paper towel substrate with Reptichip (not much, just a small layer) then closed everything back up. And, that's all. Won't bother him again until I get back in town in 8 days.

    Thanks for all the advise.
