    Eating after shedding

    I was told that right after shedding a bp will most definitly eat. Not my bp. Right now the natal mammate mouse checks out the snake without being attacked. How long to wait until trying again?

    Eating after shedding

    With my two balls if one skips a meal I will not try again until their next scheduled feeding time.

    Re: Eating after shedding

    After mine sheds i usually just wait to feed till it comes up on the feeding schedule. Gives her time to readjust. Seems to work for mine, haven't had a feeding problem yet.
