How long does a pinky to defrost correctly? Also is it ok to be fed at room temp or warmer? |

If it's just a pinkie I've bought, I'll just pour some lukewarm water in the bag and leave for 10 minutes or so (usually longer as I forget it's there though!)
If I've bought food for the whole crew, it gets lobbed into the defrosting tub with the rest, lukewarm water again and left for an hour or 2 (depending on when I can take the time to feed) and fed at the same time as theb rest :) |

I usually feed pinkys at room temp because I've over heated and exploded them too many times! You'd be able to defrost one in a short enough time. I would wrap it in kitchen roll and let it sit over the radiator. Once the belly feels squidgy and the head is warm its eating time! |
