    Excellent news !!!!


    I know some others use warm water to thaw but surely that washes away the rodent aroma ... bearing in mind that some people swear by wiping the bedding of hamsters or gerbils over the mouse to encourage a strike .


    I’m know for a fact that warming with a hairdryer then offering IMMEDIATELY whilst it’s still warm works wonderfully well with many Royals ... some just take a few REHEATS to get their juices going
