Very skinny ball python

Looks like this little guy is going to start eating better and better I fed him Friday and he ate 2 fuzzys and 1 hopper (all live) even though he was in shed and I had a leftover hopper I threw in there monday night and he ate it too my next hope is to get him on f/t so I can feed him bigger prey. Im going to try to weigh him Friday before feeding and see how much weight he has gained but I can tell hes putting on some mass.
Thanks again for all the help and support yall have given me while getting this guy back healthy

Put him on a scale last night and I know he was full but he was at 108g over double what he was when I got him

Thanks it didnt feel to awesome when I lost him last Wednesday but I found him Friday night put him into his new home in the rack and he ate the same night so I guess he wasnt to stressed out

Wow. Had some down time, found this thread today and couldn't stop until I finished it. Way to go! You will have an extra special bond with this guy from here on out, one you wouldn't have had if you didn't take all that time and effort and save his life. Blessings in disguise eh??

side note, this encourages me as I will be attempting a similar job. About to get a BP that is extremely underweight and may soon be at the point of being very very sick if I don't help him. So thanks for being a good example! That was a great strorytime thread with a happy ending!!!!

or at least hoping that's the end of the eating troubles lol!
