First day of f/t successful!

Monty has only ever eaten live, but today he successfully ate f/t without any fuss at all. Really shocked me, he snapped it right up. :) Yay!

That's awesome, congrats!

You are so darn lucky!!! Congrats on the easy switch :)

That's fantastic!! :clap:

That's great and I'm happy for you.

If I can get three new additions to do this I'll be very happy.

It's an awesome feeling, isn't it? I had one do that a few weeks ago, he'd eaten live all his life and I figured it would be a battle to get him to switch. Nope, took it first try, he just needed a little zombie dance and it was all good.

im trying again this week hope it works out like this :please: lol

Tomorrows feeding day, hope my little guy can finally make the switch! Wish me luck!

Good luck!! :)

Thanks so much for the luck my little guy has successfully made the switch today and took his first f/t meal with me today :D I have no idea how the breeder that sold him to me fed him live his aim is terrible! He bite the f/t hopper mouse right in the middle of his body. If it was a live mouse it definitely would've ended up with a possible bite that I'd have to prevent. Glad I got him on f/t though so ill never have to worry about it :) thanks for the luck and encouragement!

Awesome! :D Congrats!

Awesome

On a similar note he also took his first rat today without any issues. I have yet to experience the picky / shyness of this ball python. He eats anything I throw at him! :)

LOL consider yourself lucky! I have a few boas because they clean up everything the BP's don't eat that day.

My boy,eats his mice from the ass or the head or the mouse can be upside down,he eats in all wild ways,but strikes immediately,no hesitation either. Downs it in minutes. When he strikes he always grabs the FT towards the bottom/mid stomach to ass.

I hope I can switch mine over soon, I'm going to try this next feeding because I'd rather he not eat live, my family hates the noise the rats make. And it's cheaper to buy frozen in my area.
