    vacation question
    ok, so I'm leaving for a 2 week vacation on wednesday. my SO is going to change water, check for doodies and sheds, and take care of Nag and Nagaina...except the feeding. as I am feeding live prey now, he doesnt want to have to feed them. am I correct that they will be fine for 2 weeks and I can feed them when I get back, or is this something I need to beg him to do?

    any advice is apreciated. thanks :)

    thank you so much for the speedy reply. still lots of stuff to do before I can leave. and thanks for letting me know I was right. I would have hated to ask him if he could go buy mousies LOL

    The great part of owning a ball python as a pet. No harm in not feeding while on vacation for two weeks. So long as they get fresh water and clean cages, you are on track.

    That's the down side to vacations - you have to leave your pets :( I dread this every year - I don't worry about the snakes hardly at all though as others have already said, they're find without food for a couple of weeks and apart from the water bowl and poop cleaning there's nothing much to do. This year I have to leave my Sav ... he WILL be a handful ...

    yeah he said he can do the water change and poop check, and also a skin shed for Nag, while I'm gone. I think he's a bit squeamish about he live prey thing. anywho...I'm gonna take off and finish making my outfit and I'll see you all when I get back. thanks again!
