PLT Rat Small 100g+ 10 Pack | Snake Food UK

Frozen rats are a dietary staple for a wide range of reptiles, and the PLT Frozen Rat Small 100g+ 10 Pack is a trusted choice for keepers feeding sub-adult boas, pythons, and similar species. PLT has supplied specialist reptile retailers across the UK for 30 years, and these smalls are ethically farm-bred and humanely euthanised before being sealed in clear, secure plastic packaging.

Size and Suitability

At 100g+, these smalls are well-suited to sub-adult boas and pythons, including ball pythons, that have moved beyond pinky or fuzzy feeders but are not yet ready for a larger prey item. They are also appropriate for birds of prey and some larger amphibians.

Ethical Sourcing

• Farm-bred under ethical conditions
• Humanely euthanised prior to packaging
• Sealed in clear plastic packaging for easy inspection and hygienic handling

Packaging and Transit

Orders are dispatched in insulated boxes with dry ice packs engineered specifically for frozen food transit, keeping items solidly frozen on arrival. The CO2 released by the dry ice also helps protect the contents from pest insects during delivery. During warmer months, additional dry ice is included to maintain temperature throughout the journey.

Feeding Guide

• Defrost thoroughly at room temperature before offering to your animal
• Never use a microwave or hot water to thaw
• Remove any prey item that is not consumed promptly to keep the enclosure hygienic
• Do not refreeze once thawed

Storage

Store in the freezer and keep the packaging sealed to prevent freezer burn. Only remove and defrost what you intend to use in a single feeding session. Correct storage preserves nutritional quality and keeps waste to a minimum.

PLT's long-standing reputation in the UK reptile trade makes this a reliable staple for keepers who want consistent, responsibly sourced frozen feeders delivered directly to their door.
