More Bad Luck - Freezer Stopped Working, Are the Rats Still OK to Feed?

[chickenooget]

when in doubt, throw them out.

i had the same thing happen to me not too long ago. i just went ahead and bought new stock.

TBH i might hang on to the vaccum-sealed feeders. you can try offering them but if you get refusals you might need to just toss them.

Well, tough to say. I always use the same phrase tttaylorrr used "when in doubt, throw it out". But, being that I cook for a living and have been working with food for over 20 years, if the food stays under 47 degrees it is safe to refreeze and still use. Unfortunately, I don't know if that was the case.
Hope that helps a bit.

thanks guys.

i threw out the rats but kept the vacuum sealed ones. i'm not sure of the rats' temperatures when i found them but they felt as cold as they would've if they were frozen, except they were thawed and soft. i'll try feeding tomorrow and hopefully they're still good!
