    Then you came here to the site for nothing. Pinky mice for a ball pythons is STUPID. They have no nutritional value to the snake what so ever. Its waste of time and money to even offer them.

    If your not going to take the advice to properly offer food then why ask.

    Sorry Rich, I was waiting for advise, not just empty blame.

    Everyone else is helping, you not so much in the beginning. I did not say anything more then the breeder had them on pinkie mice and did not want to switch the food until they were settled. I usually feed fuzzies or hoppers to babies, pinkies are not much more then fluid and skin.

    Which is all the more reason to stay away from that breeder. The breeder was skimping of food to save money and increase his/her profits. Which explains why yours is still the size of babies out of the egg rather double the size in the 2 months its been hatched.

    Good point about the money, never thought about it. Is a fuzzy or hopper a good size? She did like the fuzzy i gave her on week 2. I have heard that the rat pups smell different and some BPs will not take to them right away.
