    the pied!!!!

    I finally got him to eat tonight. I tried every trick every ball python keeper has told me. I tried rat pups, asf, and mice I tried live and frozen and tonight I was feeding everyone and saw him yawning and I grabbed a ft mouse and sat it in his mouth while he was yawning and he took it! So now I guess im gonna have to be on gaurd to catch him yawning lol.

    I guess that would be called a super mild form of assist feeding? Still, it is great that he ate!
