The problem I find with leaving the rats out to thaw is, I have 35 snakes to feed, chances are a few of them are going to refuse. If I've already got the rats thawed out, and some refused, I've got some wasted rats. I've been there and done that, and it wasn't my thing.

And of course the snakes will pee just as much, difference is, they won't have to sit in it all night.
