PLT Frozen Rats Hoppers Small 20g+

PLT Frozen Rat Hoppers are a trusted staple for keepers of juvenile snakes, small birds of prey, and select amphibians. At 20g+, these hoppers are sized for animals at an early stage of growth, and PLT has been a go-to supplier for serious reptile keepers for 30 years. Ethically farm-bred and humanely euthanised, they arrive in secure, clear plastic packaging ready for your freezer.

Right Size, Right Animal

Rat hoppers at this weight are well suited to juvenile corn snakes, baby ball pythons, milk snakes, and kingsnakes. They are also appropriate for carnivorous and omnivorous lizards and frogs where prey of this size is suitable. If you keep small birds of prey, hoppers are a commonly used dietary staple at this stage too.

Why PLT

• Farm-bred under ethical conditions
• Humanely euthanised prior to freezing
• Packed in clear, secure plastic packaging
• Consistently supplied to reptile specialists for three decades

Frozen Delivery

Orders are dispatched in insulated boxes with dry ice packs designed specifically for frozen food transport. The CO2 released by the dry ice also helps keep the box free from pest insects during transit. During warmer months, additional dry ice packs are included to ensure everything arrives in fully frozen condition.

Feeding Guide

• Defrost thoroughly at room temperature before offering to your animal
• Never refreeze once thawed
• Remove any uneaten food promptly to keep the enclosure hygienic

Storage

Store in the freezer and only defrost what you need for each feeding. Keep the packaging sealed in the freezer to prevent freezer burn and preserve nutritional quality over time.

PLT hoppers give keepers a reliable, ethically sourced frozen food option backed by decades of use in specialist reptile retail — straightforward to store, straightforward to feed.
