so far i have yet to find a local petstore that sells any kind of frozen or feeder mice. But that is a really good idea i'll keep looking.

I just joined here and I've had my Ball Python for a little over a month now...

Over the month that I've had her, I've never once had an issue with her striking at me within her enclosure.
She knows what day is feeding day and she gets increasingly more active. If I open up the top and even put my hand in, she'll come have a look, but then she'll realize it's my hand and she'll go looking for the actual mouse. I haven't been bitten yet!
