Try using a cooler. The insulation keeps the heat in, so you can thaw a lot more rats in a shorter period of time...and usually without having to change the water. I use a big one that can thaw 100 small rats at a time. It has wheels on one end and a big handle on the other, so I can pull it around the room while I feed.

>>I've been placing my frozen rodents in warm to hot water for over 20 years. I lightly towel dry them before feeding but have offered wet mice and rats too. Some rats or mice are left in their vacuumed pack bags for some of my more finicky feeders.
