    Frozen success!!!

    Okay. If you read my previos thread you know I was gonna try to feed my ball pythons f/t for the first time today.......you know how some ball pythons are picky and its really hard for them to change to f/t? Yea apparently my ball pythons dont know that 😂😂😂sometimes it took longer for them to take the p/k rodents!! they just went for their food so quick today it surprised me, thank you to everyone that helped me and gave me advice, youre awesome people, i feel like im getting better at snake keeping because of you oh and i did follow the advice i received and I started feeding in the enclosure instead of using a feeding bin. I didnt put carboard down because i didnt want to bother them even for that so that they were more likely to eat the f/t mice, so i guess they ate a little aspen but i guess its cool, not everyone puts carboard right?

    And just because, I'm gonna leave a picture of the leopard gecko i rescued on wednesday, this is Luna

    Congrats on the successful f/t feedings. I try to make sure the feeders are dry so it minimizes any substrate ingestion but it won't hurt your snakes if they accidentally eat a little.
    Your leo is a cutie too . Nice rescue!

    What makes you think she's impacted? It's not a very common occurrence.
