Do you guys have opinions on feeding younger balls live or pre-killed?
You can feed them whatever they will eat. My hatchlings vary from live ASF rats to f/t rat pups.

Most will give babies live when they hatch usually just to get them eating right away. If you wanted to, you could offer a f/t mouse/rat and see if your Bp will eat it.
