When kept in tupperware - ball pythons eat rodents.
When given a choice, ball pythons often eat avian prey. The study has been done, the results posted.
The question is: how do they get to those little birdies? I mean, haven't many of you decided that they cannot climb, should not climb and that climbing is generally dangerous to them?
They climb - apparently, wild ball pythons have not gotten the memos stating that they cannot climb and can eat only rodents.
