    Re: Feeding Issue? Try this...

    I think that a few things in here are correct, but for the most part, the advice given is not really accurate.

    PAM is the ONLY way to get rid of mites and keep them gone.

    Temps, humidity and hide boxes are probably the leading cause of a snakes refusal to eat. Maybe you should go into more detail about the exact types of hides you need to provide for a BP.
    "Try thawing a rodent, refreezing it, and thawing it again, the freezing process breaks down the cell walls and makes the rodent smell more pungent"
    This isn't true. Refreezing just makes them loose their nutritional value more.

    I don't think chicks are suitable for ball pythons. Nor do they think of them as treats

    I think it is more common for females and some males to go off feed in the winter months.
