I just accepted delivery for 25 frozen mice, trouble is they were despatched on the 9th so that is 4 days ago.
There are ice crystals on the inner packaging but all the mice are thawed.
I phoned my supplier and to their credit they have arranged a new delivery to be sent tomorrow with no request from myself.
Now these mice, should I bin them?
Thanks |

Thanks guys :)
They were packed in a polysterene tub with ice packs inside, but they would have thawed probably by Saturday. So yeah best bin them..but aye Rob same as you I hate throwing food away.
Last time i bought meat online was for a 3 bird roast for xmas dinner 2 years ago..the year we had snow..tons of it. so my bird arrived almost a week late..grr cost me £150 and dumped lol
As for my snakes, if I fed and made my babies ill i'd never forgive myself. |

You wouldn't refreeze raw meat for yourself, so...anyway Janie, you've no doubt binned them by now.
I had to bin a mouse this morning too. |
