    I love days like this

    So for the past month my normal bp who is 570g has been on a hunger strike and not eating. She was normally feeding on a live rat in the tub. But tonight I tried pre killing a rat and leaving it in her tank. She took it within a couple minutes.!!!!! I love when my snakes are fed!! So i guess do you think it was the pre killed or the fact that it was in her tank that ended her strike? Or both?

    Could just be coincidence...or she was just ready to eat. Ball pythons act like that from time to time. Don't stress out over it, they eat when they are hungry. In the future just offer once a week or whatever your schedule is and if they don't eat just monitor their weight. I'm glad she ate, i'm sure you will be sleeping much better
