I have moved house and the local reptile place sold me some pinkies, and ive personally never seen anything like it. the pics are frozen, but the whiteness in the rings or patches stays, and sometimes, they are hollowing into the pinkie. just wondering what it is and what causes it, and double checking it is suitable feed... |

it's frost bite, basically they have been in the freezer 'exposed' not wrapped at all. It's harmless to your reptiles. _________________

Used to find that all the time with the pinkies from a local supplier. They were just stored in an open tub in the freezer so were easily damaged by the freezing process. |
