I think my snake has a burn.

Ball pythons are super finicky eaters and any little thing can cause them not to eat. I would for sure recommend the shorter handling sessions, IMO anything over an hour is just to much for these timid little guys and for some even an hour is to much

Just test out the shorter handling and see if it makes a difference. It is ultimately your animal so if you truly think it’s not benefiting it at all then you can go to longer sessions if that’s what you want.

Another way to help with the feeding issue is when you heat up the mouse, focus the heat of the head that way when they strike they will aim for the head and hopefully won’t end up striking in a weird position and give up.

I hope this helps

Alright I'll try limiting it to 10 minutes once every 2 days with no handling in between as much as it will kill me. At least with a drastic change like that results will be gained quickly, and in a large manner. Of course it will have to wait until she is checked on.
