Hey everyone,
I have recently taken ownership of a 4 year old Ball Python! He was re-homed to me after my GFs family didnt have the room for him anymore.
I have done tons and tons of research in the weeks before receiving him (as well as taking advice from previous owners, although I have changed many things), and have made sure that all of his needs are being met. He is the sweetest most docile snake ever and seems to already be comfortable in his new home
The only thing is that the previous owners only fed him live mice, and all of the research that I have done seems to point to the fact that f/t is much better. He has been eating this way all his life for 4 years, and I am worried that he will not be able to make the switch after getting so used to live.
I have only had him for a few weeks, and have fed him twice so far. I have fed him live mice only because I am not sure how to begin switching him over.
I have read/watched many different sources explaining how one may get a snake to switch over. Just looking for more information or if anyone has had past experience with something like this!
Thank you!![]()
