How long does it take defrost a snake?

Defrosting a snake typically takes about 12 to 24 hours when done safely in a refrigerator. For quicker methods, submerging the sealed snake in cold water can take around 1 to 3 hours, depending on its size. It's crucial to avoid using a microwave, as this can cook parts of the snake unevenly. Always ensure the snake is completely thawed before feeding to prevent health issues for the pet.
