I use a heat lamp -- but if your snakes are taking f/t well then they will most likely take them at room temperature.

As for the wet rats -- it's most likely condensation inside the bag from defrosting too quickly. If you defrost them slower - overnight in the fridge or out on the counter for the day - then you should eliminate wet rat syndrome.

Good luck!
