My vet has some baby pygmy rattlers. He had to anesthetize them and force feed them for the first feedings lol!

I have a ball python that has a crazy short tongue, and only one eye. She was born a twin and didn't fair so well in the egg. She is over a year old and is doing really well now. She used to need to assist feed but now she is taking on her own. She is still quite small but has in the last month started to pack on some weight. She was micro when she was born at about 13 gm She was only 98 gm 3 months ago but is now 133! She has over come her difficulties, and recognizes feeder mice (FT) it is interesting she bumps them backs up and strikes. Myself and a friend have a lot of work in her but she was so fiesty when first born that we figured she was fighting us maybe she would fight to live too and deserved the chance.
