    Re: New with many questions!

    a 2 foot Ball should be on something larger then adult mice. or should be fed multiple. my ball is 2.5 feet and i feed him a medium rat every 5-7 days.

    judging by its length its estimated that its 6-8 months. maybe a year. this is difficult to guess because they all grow differently and some can be runts compared to there brothers and sisters. not only this but since it came from petco it was probably under fed its whole time there which can stunt the growth of a snake.

    please post some pictures of him/her so we can get a better idea of body mass and suggest a proper food item.

    Edit: forgot to mention some snakes love a bath others hate it. it can change with the wind my Ball likes to have a good soak... never used to though. but i will tell you this NEVER leave them in water unattended they can panic and drown it has happened to many users here.
