I have what seems to be a baby ball python, he is only about 17 inches long. He was being fed every Tue when I bought him. When I tried to feed him the next Tue he wouldn't eat, so I thought maybe it was the stress of changing homes and getting used to his new one. But he fed, on a f/t pinkie, on Sat for the first time. To my relief, and he didn't take long to snatch it.

I tried to get him back on the routine of feeding every Tue, cause thats when the pet shop gets new pinkies in. When I offered him the pinkie (live), he didn't even take 10 secs to snatch it. So I waited a while, about 15 minutes, and dropped another pinkie in, a smaller one (live), and again, he snatched it in less than 10 secs.

Is this classed as over feeding/ power feeding, or did I just have a hungry boy, that has a good appetite???

The first pinkie was just starting to get a fuzz, still see it's skin clearly, but the ears more more formed, and the second one was a real baby, only skin.

Please let me know, cause I don't want to think i'm doing good, and end up causing severe problems for my snake.

Thanks a lot...
