Welcome to the gold standard of reptile husbandry. For the beginner enthusiast, transitioning to whole-prey feeding can feel daunting, but Stoffels Frozen Mice make the process hygienic, simple, and nutritionally complete.

Why Choose Stoffels Frozen XL Mice? Feeding frozen-thawed (FT) prey is widely considered the safest and most humane method for captive reptiles. Unlike live feeding, frozen prey eliminates the risk of your pet being bitten or injured during the hunt. Stoffels ensures that every mouse is raised on a high-quality diet, resulting in a nutrient-dense meal for your pet.

Key Benefits:

• Optimal Nutrition: Packed with essential proteins, calcium (from the developed skeleton), and fats required for energy and shedding.

• Hygienic Blister Packaging: The individual compartments prevent “freezer burn” and allow you to pop out exactly what you need without thawing the entire pack.

• Pathogen Free: The deep-freeze process significantly reduces the risk of parasites compared to live prey.

• Easy Digestion: Sized at 20g, these XL adults are the perfect stepping stone for sub-adult snakes moving toward larger prey items.

Feeding Guide for Beginners:

1. Thaw: Place the blister in the refrigerator overnight or submerge the sealed mouse in a bowl of lukewarm (not boiling) water for 30–60 minutes.

2. Warm: Before serving, briefly dip the mouse in warm water to bring it to a natural body temperature (approx. 32–37°C). This helps “pit-viper” species locate the meal via heat signatures.

3. Offer: Use feeding tongs (tweezers) to offer the mouse to your pet. Gently wiggle the prey to simulate movement.

4. Safety: Never use a microwave to thaw frozen mice, as this creates dangerous “hot spots” and destroys nutrients.
