is it wise to feed 1yr old corns fuzzies that were defrosted in the fridge yesterday,been warmed slightly in hot water then put back in fridge (didnt feed them last night)then taken out later and re- warmed slightly again tonight?

IMO I'd just get some new ones, not worth the risk for the sake of a couple of quid at the most

Put them in a sandwich bag and put them in warm water for a couple of minutes, then replace the water. Should only take ten minutes.

i would feed then no problem............
corns are opportunists in the wild and would take an easy meal if they came across one, they're a good judge of whether something is 'off' (then they won't touch it)
