I just picked up a baby ball python today from Petco. Hes under 12 inches. I have had an adult BP before, never such a tiny one!

How long before I should handle it?

When should I try feeding first?

and it wont stress him out if i put him in a different container each time i feed him right?

How often and what should I feed him?

I was basically given no help at petco, in fact the lady helping me was too afraid to pick the little guy up lol I do know though to keep him in a smaller cage until he gets bigger.


Thank you!
