My first time feeding was successful!!! (for the most part) Last night was my first attempt at feeding a ball python ever, shes eating F/T .. so heres the story..... I thawed the mouse out, then once it was thawed, i put it in hot water, i then dried it with a paper towel, i opened the cage, as soon as i walked in the room, her head came out of her hide lol she was hungry is guess, then i put the mouse on the tongs, wiggled it, after 10 seconds she struck it and began to wrap.. this is where it gets weird , she took it in the hide.. after observing, she began biting around the mouse, i noticed she was going towards the back... she then gave up.. using the tongs, i moved the mouse to the front of the hide (with the head in the hide) , thinking i didn't thaw it good enough ( even though i felt it for myself and it seemed fine) i went to start the process over with another mouse.. when i came back to get the thawing container the mouse (in the cage) was gone with my small female sitting in her hide with almost a smile .. a little weird but if she ate then im happy
