first experience with bp

I will add a little info as well If you buy from a breeder ONLINE or LOCAL ask them to get the snake eating Frozen Thawed F/T it will cut the cost down for you quit a bit. Plus you can order F/T online or form a local Breeder in bulk so you dont have to make a weekly trip to the pet store. If you get a live eater most can be converted to F/T pretty easily once they settle in to a routine. I do have one girl who refues to eat anything but LIVE MICE. But I am working on it she is a rescue and well at this point it is more imprtant to get some food in her rather than worry about switching her to rats and F/T. As others have said I have never fed a mouse pinkie to a Ball Python and have only had one who was the correct size for a rat pinkie. Most hatchling Ball Pythons will eat a rat pup or larger I am glad you have found us here in the Forum lots of great people here with a ton of info. I hope your second encounter with a Ball Python goes better for you they are great snakes
