All good things to know, thank you. I got these smaller rats with the snake (along with all its other supplies). Maybe they are a bit ripe, but also Spot was rubbing it all over the place and squeezing and unsqueezing it. Either way, I'm going to call it a day and go to therapy to recover from the grossness of it (just kidding!)Originally Posted by Bogertophis
He's pretty & he's eating...what more do you want?Anyway, it's more interesting this way, that they aren't all the same, eh?
Rodents shouldn't typically split open unless they're a bit "ripe", as from being thawed too long or re-frozen; I guess the snakes
aren't in quarantine from each other? Re-offering transfers germs from one snake to another, just remember that...a mouth in-
fection that you haven't noticed yet, or a beginning RI. Not saying I never re-offer among my long time healthy residents...I do on
occasion, but I rinse off the rodent first & normally it's when the snake hasn't bitten into it, only sniffed & said "not today".
