Spotted pinkies?

I bought two bags of frozen pinkies from RodentPro two months ago. My snakes recently went through the first one and now working on the second bag. Although I realized that there are white spots all over the second bag of pinkies that I don't believe were there before when I received them. Does it mean they're expired/molded...? I thought they could stay in the freezer for up to a year and still be fine?
 
If anything, it might be freezer burn. I can't say for sure without seeing. Do they have a smell to them when thawed?
 
That sounds like freezer burn, the pinks should be 100% unless they smell VERY strongly.
 
You can keep them in the freezer for a long time but you want to seal them airtight. Take the pinkies you have left and divide them into 4 bags. Seal up 3 of the bags really well to prevent any further freezer burn. Feed out of the fourth bag.
 
I would feed them. But I would rewrap the rest to prevent further burning.
