If it was frozen thawed, the skin would not have been anywhere close to the strength it once was.

I had a carpet break a frozen rat's leg on the side of the cage just from striking and pulling it into her coils. I heard a snap and looked in and the leg almost completely broke off.

The last time I fed my little ball Pika he took the rat out of my fingers so quickly that I was left holding the last third of the tail :eek: So gross

My adult bp did this with me once. I usually use tongs to feed Pika, but I had used the tongs with the sick rosy boa and I haven't been able to get a new set since. :sad: But yeah, really gross; leftover tail... lol

Haha. I use my fingers for my adult corn but tongs for my little guy.
I almost got bit once.
The male is has a very good feeding response.
He's the only one of mine that coils.

Lol, I feed all my guys frozen/thawed as well, and the hotter the water you thaw in is, the softer the rat's skin gets. I had my adult male BP constrict an f/t medium rat so hard that the rat's stones popped out of the sac and stuck onto the side of the snake's cage. My fiance, who was helping me feed, gagged and turned an odd shade of green and bolted from the room. I thought it was hilarious and wish I had had a camera phone at the time.

All men would respond that way. Gabby has a tendency to pop their eyes out.

He is a 30 inchish rtb. My 4 year old son named him. My only internet source is my cell and I can't upload pics for some reason. :(

If it was f/t you probably warmed it up to hot.
