I completely understand that people want to feed frozen thawed and there is 45 methods to thawing them out and dancing them around I get it... At the end of the day everyone needs to understand that when buying a snake at some point you have to be willing and able to feed it live prey... Simple as that.. I don't believe in making an animal go weeks or months and once a week shoving a dead rat in their face that was blown probably too hot with a hair dryer.. Sorry, just my two cents...
    It’s not referring to 6 or 7 WEEKS !!


    It means try the method 6 or 7 times in as many minutes .

    So if the snake doesn’t strike the first time you have to reheat the mouse/rat with the hairdryer and offer the food instantly again ... then repeat as many times as you can be bothered . Too many offer a cool mouse ONCE then just give it up as a bad job . That’s why I always emphasise the method so carefully.
