Both my ball python and mexican king snake have a taste for the finer things in life. Guess I've spoiled them a bit. They will only eat pan seared mice in virgin olive oil (2-3 minutes tops depending on mouse size). Then, im required to drizzle a mix of strawberry flavored balsamic vinegar and sesame seeds with a sprig of thyme on top. Occasionally they prefer a sprig of pesto-basil.
