Re: *sigh wow this sucks
Dude, I put a dozen mice in a container once in August, fell asleep while they thawed, woke up next morning, forgot the mice and went about my day.
Three days later my kids asked me what died 
So I find this little poly box sitting on the shelf in the snake room, I won't even describe it.

I just did the same thing....so no need to describe it to me!! Infact I have done it more than once....or twice LOL. It is horrible and you think that I would learn. In 22 years of keeping reptiles you have pretty much seen it all.......smelled it all!!

The most foul stench, nausiating and potent is Monitor feces.
Chomper had crapped on me twice now.
The first time was not so bad, he hit my feet while I was on the computer. (free roaming the house)
The second incident was not so lucky. I was showing him to a group of people and he started wiggling around, He was asking to get let down, but I ignored these signals and just kept on talking....
About 2 minutes of squirming about and he finally just decided he had enough, the tail lifted up and I wore it right down the front of me, with a full adience to see it happen.
The smell is similar to, if not worse than the mice smells described above.

Re: *sigh wow this sucks
Hope you threw out the microwave too.... LOL!! That stench is NOT going to come out no matter HOW often you scrub it down!
Best way I've found to thaw out rodents is to put them in a bag in hot tap water. Change the water every 5 - 10 mins to keep it warm and in no time you'll have a fully thawed and warmed up rodent snack for your snake. Some people leave the rodent thaw in the water to give the snake some extra liquids. Don't see the need for that myself...
Good luck next time!

Re: *sigh wow this sucks
years ago one of my boas got sick and i fed it a couple large rats, about 6 days later it decided to regurgitate it.....OMG my eye were watering it smelt so bad, it had already broken down all the hair and skin... not even breathing through my shirt made any difference. lol good times lol. When i thaw my rats out i just put them in the water and feed them to the snakes wet, a little water isnt going to make a difference,
