    Re: The best way to fattin babies up fast?
    The best trick I ever learned about Ball Pythons (or any live animal for that matter, but especially BP's) is PATIENCE. Nothing happens overnight. Take a deep breath, perfect your husbandry, feed them appropriate meals, as everyone has advised you on, and enjoy them while they are small. Eventually they will grow into adults, and you'll wish they were small. The time eventually starts to fly by, and you wonder where it went.

    That's the best advice that I can give that L've learned over the last 6 years.

    Set them up, let them settle in. When they start eating, you won a big first step! They will grow just fine with a weekly feeding.

    I already am. Maybe that's where it comes from. LOL. I think that comment made me feel older.

    Another trick that I don't believe has been posted is if they refuse don't try and feed them again until the next feeding cycle comes around.

    Thats when patience comes in, like Tim posted. :)
