    In my opinion there is no reason not to feed them when they are in shed. Some will eat some wont I would try it.

    i offer food even if getting ready to shed they choose if they want to eat. ive had them shed no more than 2-3 min after they got their meals down.

    On here you should actually be getting the opposite response.

    Many ball pythons will eat just find during shed. The only way to find out is to give it a try.

    Eating during shed cannot hurt your snake.
