"...put them in a plastic bag have a warm bucket of water..."



I've got the worst luck in keeping them dry when thawing in water. Dang water most always ends up in the bag with the rat. Ha! Ha! I think most of the time it would be due to pin holes from the rat's claws. I've even tried double-bagging & they still got wet. Room temperature and/or heat tape is all I use now. Temp guns are real handy for warming 'em up to a good temperature.



Good to see you back around!

Later!

Mike
