Hello, I'm in soggy Northern CA where we had a flood, and the power went out for at least six hours. I stacked my boas near the gas heater and left to move things to higher ground from our photo gallery in the flood plain. The snakes did just fine, and I didn't lose anything to the flood except maybe a months worth of rats, we really dodged a bullet with only a little mud on the floor at the gallery. So should I just throw the rats away and reorder? They were already frozen again when I got home because the power had come back on, and they don't really stink any more than before.... It's only 15 or so rats, so I'm thinking I'll toss them, what do you think?
