As far as eating goes that has more to do with wild caught specimens although if a captive bred BP is not being kept right they won't eat.

    Check out the BP dedicated portion of this site. I would venture to say that at least 1/3 of the new posts everyday have to do with ball pythons not eating. These are all captive bred. They are incredibly unpredictable in their eating.

    This. It's why I have boas and king snakes, they are happy to eat any leftovers so I don't waste feeders.

    Yep love the boa feeding response.

    maybe it's just my experience but I feel like boas are much cleaner than BPs. My boas usually defecate in a single spot and rarely slither through it. When I had BPs I felt like their tubs were always a nightmare after pooping.

    I would have to agree 3 out 4 of my boas go in thier water bowl and the other always dose it behind her hide. Its kidda nice dumping the poop in the toilet and cleaning just the bowl. My corn snake seams the worse about painting the tank.... then agian he is old and bilnd I belive. Ball would land in the middle
