Either that or the fact that this rat was the first from a different supplier. My first two that he had were from a local pet shop (not a big name chain store, but a large multi-species store nonetheless) and this one was from Canadian Mouseman
I let my rats thaw on top of their screens as well and they are always are so ready they take it like immediately lol Yesterday I fed my girl as well and she was so excited for it when I went it to see if it was fully thawed she had crawled up the side of the tank and was just staring at the part of the screen where the bowl was! When I opened it she even tried to hurry out to grab it and I had to use my tongs to coax her back into the tank XD

The method seems to work well lol. I hope he has a nice full shed with you!
