Feeding question

[Craiga 01453]

Thanks y’all! It was definitely the water, I left the rat longer in the water than I usually do. I think I will start using a hair dryer for now on.

The hairdryer method has proven success, but if your snake eats wet prey I'd continue to feed wet. The added hydration is a good thing.

I take my prey out mid evening and defrost in warm water, repeating if necessary for larger prey.
Then once feeding time comes around (usually midnight-ish for me) they're fully defrosted.

From there I get the hottest water my tap will produce and feed within 5 minutes. Smaller prey obviously heats faster though.
