Do not microwave the pinkies. It is very bad for the snake. It will start to cook it and bactiria can start to grow. You can leave it out over night or if you are in a hurry you can put it in some lukewarm water or put it under running water. I freeze mine dry. To warm it up for my snakes I put the mouse under a heat light til it's about body temp.
