First BP

Alright, so the baby ate his second mice today.

I tried it at 5 days but he refused it and now at 7 days he took it

Not handled it a single time since you told me to not

Nice job!!! I would stick to 7 days though. Especially now, since by refusing on day 5 your snake basically told you 5 is too soon.
If you offer too often it can stress the snake and lead to more refusals.
So stick to a 7 day schedule and you should be good to go

I think adult mice are probably fine. It's tough to see in the picture, especially on my phone.
Does the mouse leave a noticeable lump in the snakes stomach after it is swallowed?

[oli769oli]

Nah, not a noticeable lump

Last week feed was noticeable, but this week adult mouse is like if he ate nothing or almost nothing

What should i go for?

Ok, well you can try switching to rats soon. It's best to switch to rats earlier than later, anyway. This way you'll never have to feed multiple prey items. A male BP will be fine on Smalls his whole life, and a female will be fine on Mediums.

But for now, you're probably looking at rat fuzzies or pups. Maybe fuzzies to start then pups after a handful of meals and some growth

Thanks for the advice,

I will look at the size next time I hit the store this weekend

2 things I can suggest.

1. needs 2 hides. One on each side, hot and cool sides. Definitely needs more clutter. Too much open space for a ball python.

2. Temp and humidity gauge - accurites are a good choice to monitor.


What's the wire running in the tank for?

Hi,

I have both thing to monitor the humidity and the temp.

The wire that you see is the thermometer probe.

For an hide at the cold spot would be a great idea I will look into it
