It won't be long til I move my Kingsnake up to fuzzies, and up to now have been defrosting pinkies in warm water for 15 mins before feeding.
Obviously a fuzzy is bigger so I was gonna leave it for a minimum of half an hour, but does anyone have a rough guide on defrosting times for different sizes of mice using the method of defrosting in water? |

Thanks guys, that's what I've been doing so far anyways with the pinkies to check they're ready. I'll carry on as I am then! |

i do mine until they're squashy when i poke em...
(when totally defrosted any rodent should have a fully articulated spine: if it bends and twists easily at all vertebrae joints then it's defrosted |
