    Did you thaw it in warm water or use a hairdryer on it for warmth at any point? If so, I'd toss it. If not, it still may be gross to feed but probably safe if it actually
    stayed cold. I'm not a fan of refreezing prey...they get mushy & spoiled...remember that freezing doesn't kill "germs", it only suspends their growth; when you thaw,
    & especially when you warm it, those "germs" (like in the rodents gut) are having a party & multiplying, so you risk more spoilage than your snake's tummy can
    handle. When re-offered, your snake may decide it smells off & refuse it, or he might eat it & be fine, or he might eat it & puke it up...no one can tell you for sure.
    It's your call.
