How long did it take you to make your ball python to eat F/t?

So how long? If you did.

She ate them right away, I got her at abount 4 weeks and she's always eaten F/T

I have never fed a live mouse/rat or other prey to any of my snakes :)

When i transitioned my BP to F/T it took a little while. He refused food for 2months. Then hunger got the best of him. No problems since that.

I've never "made" any of mine eat f/t. I happen to feed live to all but my albino.

I've been lucky, all of mine take f/t no problem. My normal was eating live mice when I got her and she switched to f/t rats instantly and my little bee was eating live hopper mice and I got her on f/t first try. Going to try to get on rats tonight. :D

I'm proud to say I've never fed any of my current snakes f/t :D

I've started a few on f/t right from their first meal(because I had the f/t given to me) and then switched them over to live, they do that pretty readily :P

i just want to feed my adult f/t just to be safe

All of mine are eating f/t right from the start.

Same here. They are safe as long as you supervise them while they eat. Our pastel prefers prekilled, though. He is a wuss. Very shy eater. You can put a live rat in there and he will cower. Kill it, put it in his hut with him and leave him for a few minutes and it will be gone.

I do, however, start my corn snakes on f/t, mainly out of convenience. They aren't usually picky like balls.
