    Ball Python Feeding questions??

    I have recently bought two Ball Pythons from different places one Male Spider and one female normal.
    The male Spider weighs 67 grams
    the normal weighs 66 grams
    online it says they should eat hoppers ( small mice) they won't eat them they only eat mice fuzzies.
    Do you think I should just wait longer and feed them fuzzies until they want to eat more?

    I think you should feed them what they will eat at this size. They aren't old enough and don't have enough weight on them to fast right now. Sometimes they just don't like larger prey. Ease them up to size but make sure they are eating... I had to drop prey size for one of mine until he was eating well. Then I bumped to a more appropriate size and he did just fine. I'm sure there are diff opinions on this. This is just my 2 cents..
