Looks fine to me.
I hated thawing in water and decided to try a dryer method. It has worked very well for me, so I'll list what I do below in case you want to give it a try.
24 hours prior to feeding I put frozen feeders in a ziploc bag in the fridge to thaw overnight slowly.
About 2-4 hours before feeding I take the baggie out and sit it in the snake room to come up to room temp.
Right before feeding, I use a hair dryer to heat up the rodent to average rodent body temp, making sure the head is a little warmer than the rest of the body.
Feed using tongs to wiggle the rodent to simulate movement.
I have LOVED not having to deal with wet rodents and have not had any refusals due to the change in heating process.
