    Baby lesser eating question

    My new lesser baby just took a fuzzy rat for the first time for me but the little booger doesn't seem to have the strength to kill it. Oh wait I think he finally killed it now he's starting to swallow it.

    Have you tried frozen thawed? Would eliminate the killing process and be a bit safer for your snake.

    Live is perfectly fine when done responsibly.

    He did it. He just seemed like such a rookie it sure is cute watching the little booger fumble thru the eating process. I am so happy, I was worried that he wasn't going to eat and just dry up and die. Now I guess I should resist the urge to power feed him like I want to do. Should I just feed him once a week? All my other balls were older when I got them and I haven't had any feeding issues, matter of fact I have six other balls and they are all pigs.
