You'll want to get off the live kick as soon as you can - I know its fascinating and very National Geographic to watch but there's insane room for injury - try switching to pre-killed and possibly even transitioning to frozen-thawed - too much room for stuff to go wrong. Congrats on your new family members and welcome to the site as well!

gonna see it ?
Yeah I bought three frozen the other day since my 5 month old Calista is beginning to shed. I'll feed her in the next day or two and see how it goes. The live pups I'm feeding them don't have any teeth so they can't hurt my babys right now, but I am going to try f/t tomorrow , any advice on inticing her with the f/t?
-
well it depends on the snake. some will take the mouse right off the tongs and others you have to put the mouse in there and move it around like it is alive, and some snakes just need to be left alone with the mouse and they will take it on thier own. im not expertat feeding f/t im still trying to switch but thats the information ive got from on here.

That's pretty much what I figured.
Calista is a veracious eater so she probably won't be to hard to convince, my other baby is a little more timid, I'll just have to try and see. If I can't get it to work I might just break the jaws of anything that could possibly harm them before feeding.
-
ouch, would that kill them or just disable them from biting, not to be mean but it sounds kinda cruel. but i dont know how u do it, i may be wrong

Adult feeding schedule.
No you're right it would be cruel, not very nice.

my 10 month old ball at the time was 190.00 but i was able to get him for 150.00, they are really expensive up here in canada.
And first time herp, if 80$ is alot of money, money you dont havem mabey you should wait a while. Because im working now, and owning a BP and caring for it correctily can become a bit of an expence.
-
Yeah it is kinda expensive, but just wait till you bread and get some morphs, you can really make some money. Of course that is minus the electric bill, feeding, bedding, incubator, stress, worry . . .
but 15,000.00 for a caramel or snow makes it worth while.

Yeah I'm not trying to be mean but 80 dollars is nothing it cost me at least 100 to start and I continue to spend if my bp's need something that money never existed. I don't have a job but i still have money for my bp's because I love having them so much Christmas money for bps, birthday money for bps, money i make on the side is money for bp's ok I exaggerated a little but not that much the reason i can do it is because when i spend money on them it's like anybody else buying a big TV. What im saying is you have to be willing to not buy that game if it gets in the way of something you need to get for your snake luckily i don't pay heat or electric and my dad helps buy mice.

Yeah you must consider the future, it's a continuous investment, just make sure you have sufficient funds for your babys.
