    freeze night crawlers?

    can you freeze night crawlers and feed them to your snakes later on?

    Ew...i've never heard of anyone doing this. Is there a reason why youre thinking of trying it? They will survive for quite a while in the fridge..

    Re: freeze night crawlers?

    This has been brought up many times before. The answer is no. If you freeze them, then thaw, you end up with useless goo.

    Night crawlers will tolerate temperatures as low as 42 degrees and will last (go dormant and stay alive) a very long time at that temperature. You just have to keep them slightly moist, not wet, and open the container once in a while to let air in.
