    All my hatchlings are "fight or flight", that's just nature. They think everything is out to kill them.
    Anything else in my collection doesn't care. I handle before and after feeding.

    By the way if your girl is gravid she might be going off feed for a while.

    That's just it; its going to happen. I couldn't tell you how many times even the most docile of my snakes has decided to make my hand a personal target.

    Again, wild animals, they have a mouth, they have teeth. You will get bit in your Ball Python Career.

    VERY TRUE it's public just that my question was asked, answered and SOLVED so anymore input is irrelevant...

    But was it really solved? You asked questions about shedding and feeding.

    You replied with new information about shedding and feeding, and that you feed in a separate tank.

    I'm not sure I would say its irrelevant, again we are trying to help you take care of your 'babies'.

    just the shedding part is all i needed, she'll eat when she's ready <---just have to be the patient guy that i'm NOT..i asked about the shedding because that was delaying the feeding of the 4 but only 3 took em..so anyone else that mentions something they think is useful is the irrelevant part, because the issue has been solved already...;)
