I just got a spider ball python and he's used to eating frozen/thawed. So my question is how to convert him to live Prey?
Thanks

Why in the world do you want to convert him to live?

There probably wont be much issue there. Most of the time the only problem is trying to get a snake thats used to live back on frozen/thawed. But thats just my experience.

They will eat live no problem... Why in the world would you not want to feed frozen thawed? It's safer, cheaper, and easier.

Make sure your snake has on body armor!

Why in world would you want to switch back to live prey? It can take months if not longer to switch from live to f/t (which is cheaper, easier, safer). If you already have one that has switched, keep it that way.

Not where I live in rural Wyoming nobody carries frozen thawed and shipping would put the price higher then a live one would cost me.

So why not at least feed pre-killed? Still safer for the snake.
