Twang'em into trees!
Perhaps I didn't do a good enough to search to find info on this, but I really have to ask...
I took out Maizie's pinkies tonight to prepare dinner & when I opened the container, I noticed that all of the pinkies had little white spots on the skin. The spots don't look to be *on* the skin so much as within the skin tissue itself, and the don't scrape off with a fingernail. I only bought the pinkies about two weeks ago, at most. They almost look like a white version of when you break a blood vessel close to the surface of the skin when you scratch, versus causing a bruise. I wish I had a camera...
So, I wonder: is it freezer burn? I don't think it could be mold, could it? And, dare I ask this without sounding like a complete ignoramus: safe to eat? Or, toss them? (And, no, I didn't feed them to Maizie...to me they looked quite odd, but I don't have enough experience with mice to know whether or not this is normal & safe, or otherwise...)
Thanks!
