If the freshness of feeder mice or rats is ever in question, you're always better off throwing them away or returning them. Even newborn baby snakes can go weeks and months without eating. However, one rancid meal can greatly harm a snake.

Cynthia, I'm glad you decided to return the feeders. If you have trouble finding quality frozen feeders at your local pet store, you may have better luck ordering from one of the online companies.
