Just wondering.
When I got my snake he came with 4 fuzzys that were partially if not fully defrosted during transport. I have re-frozen them, but wondered if they are still ok for my lil Mojo to eat. Dont wanna feed him sumit that might make him ill.

Cheers

you might want to search for 're-freeze' on here, some people do, some people don't.
i personally do as corns are opportunists in the wild and would happily devour an already deceased meal if they came across it, providing it wasn't too far gone.

I think that I'll use em.
I have always been of the opinion that
animals have an extra sense telling
them when food is a bit funky lol

I had a load off pinkies delivered that were almost defrosted. They were still very cold so i refroze them. Been feeding my two corns with them for 3 weeks now and they are fine so i would use them if i were you.

i would also refreeze, but last feed my corn 'killed' the dead mouse, but dropped it after like 10 mins, and it was ver skinny in the middle from where it had been constricted so i chucked it in the bin
