I lost a female eastern king a few years back. I actually did my own necropsy on the garage floor and found her stomach had been sliced open with the aspen.
Since then, I dont thaw my mice in warm water anymore, I dry thaw them over my room heater. I tried plastic bags/Ziplok too, but they seem to have minut holes in them and the mice get wet anyway, or the mouse claws poke holes. Then you have to deal with trying to sink a mouse balloon. Big pain. I feed dry thawed food now, and usually taunt the snake to take it from the tongs so the head is started before the mouse settles on the bedding. ----- Tom
