We purchased four fuzzies from the local petstore to feed to Xefaud and Sadis (our baby ball pythons). They were out of hoppers and the small mice were too large. We weighed the snakes and then gave each their first fuzzy. Sadis went to town in no time and was ready for her second in a few minutes. She then slammed down her second fuzzy no problem. Xefaud, the smaller of the two was just sitting there with the fuzzy crawling around him. He showed no interest in it. If it moved, he looked at it, but he made no effort to eat. We even left him alone with it for 3 hours with the lights out and nothing.
So now we are left with two fuzzies. The room temperature is probably keeping them alive for now. (80 degrees) but we are wondering what to do with them. We've never killed anything and I'm not so sure we are willing to physically kill them. Is there anyway we can keep them for tomorrow? The ball pythons won't eat frozen or at least they didn't when we tried before.
Any advice?
