Refreezing rodents

[Jack W]

I have always thought that I shouldn't refreeze uneaten rodents, any way I have seen on a few caresheet websites and rep sites that they say you can refreeze as long as the rodent hasn't been left hanging around for too long.

So does anyone refreeze left over mice and rats?

Cheers

for the sake of the price of a rodent its not worth putting your snakes health at risk

Nope never have and never will, if they refuse a feed I chuck the prey. Simple as with me

Just like re heating food in a way, we dont do it?
I know its not the same, and i may not be making sense, but we dont reheat food twice, and refreezing would be doing it twice :P

Good point. Cheers guys, I have never done it, and didn't think it would be a good idea. Just wanted to be sure that I wasn't chucking money down the drain for no reason lol. Normally any left overs go to the FWC, but I may need to get a bull snake soon to serve as a snake left over recycling bin!
