My baby ball python's food shipped today (frozen hoppers) and should be arriving the day before his feeding day (Friday). I ordered my him from xyz reptiles and they previously had him on live food, and Friday will be the first time I'm feeding him since he didn't eat last Friday. Any suggestions on how to properly feed him and switch him to f/t?
Also, I have a separate feeding tub for him so he doesn't accidentally eat his substrate by accident. So how should I quickly transport him into the tub? How do I lift him without stressing him out?
I have not handled him since he's been in his terrarium, so any advice would be great

Thank you!
