Since ball pythons use their heat pits more than their eyes for hunting, there's no reason why you can't offer food regardless of the stage of shed. All of mine are offered food on the same day each week, whether they are deep in blue or not. More times than not, everyone eats.
was just about to ask as Zeus shedded yesterday and i have a rat thawing now

My fire will eat during any stage of shed. I actually fed her yesterday and I'm pretty sure she will shed today or tomorrow. My firefly turned down a meal during shed once, but fed while blue the next time. I just offer food on the scheduled day whether they are shedding or not...
