Hi everyone, just bought a load of mice from pets at home for the first time, the first one I get out to give to my corn and it looks like this, not seen this before, is this normal/common? I'm guessing it will be ok to give to my corn and also probably bet appealing to her but just want to make sure it's safe?

Personally, I have never seen my mice look like that. Just to be safe, you might want to try to bring them back to the store and get new ones.
 
Weird. I've seen them with a little blood, but that's a lot. Does it feel squishy, or firm (firm is good)? Does it smell okay? Is the belly soft and discolored?
 
It felt and smelt and looked normal all apart from the blood, I just fed it to her in the end as didn't get any responses on here for a while and didn't want to leave it out to long, I found online that it can happen occasionally and that its due to it defrosting and freezing a few times but apparently doesn't do any harm, snake liked it that's for sure! Then I went to put her back in her viv but when I picked her up she had blood on her which then went on my finger which then led to her biting me for the first time ever! She let go straight away but did draw a tiny bit of blood, oh well least I know what it feels like now!
Thanks for your responses anyway [emoji4]
