So I have worked with Ball Pythons at both a pet store and a zoo for a couple years and just today finally bought my first BP.
I bought it off of someone that had to move and couldn't take her with and to be honest I don't know how well he cared for her...
Since this is the first snake that I have actually owned I had a few questions...

1. She has shed recently. I don't know how recently (the oprevious owner couldn't remember), but it couldn't have been too long ago as there were still parts of her shed in her cage when I bought her. He said that she always has shed in patches like that, but I know that it should ideally be in 1 piece.
Could this just be a problem with the humidity that he kept her at? Would puttign in a humidity hide during shedding help that as well?

2. Along with the shed question... it seems that she still has bits that havent come off. Would a soak be the solution for that?

3. He said she has always eaten live mice. Will it be hard to switch to F/T?
I have heard that BPs can be fairly easy to switch over, but also that some are rather picky...

4. Finally, he said that he fed her 1 mouse a month. Should I slowly work her up to feeding her once a week or can I just start offering food every week starting now?

Any help would be appreciated.
Normally I would spend hours researching all of this on the internet, but unfortunately my laptop crashed a few days ago and the computer I'm on now has too many people sharing it to spend that much time on lol.
