No I had a conversation with someone about the Champagne being in a small tub. I've been over this on FB but I'll go ahead and let the cat out of the bag here too..Originally Posted by Asherah
He is a problem feeder that we have tried every trick in or 15 year tool box of keeping and breeding to get him to eat in a bigger tub. I've used black tubs as you see we have, hides, news paper stuffed in the tub, more hides than you could count, paper substrate, aspen, coconut, live feeders, frozen, mice, rats, ASF. He just shuts down he's crazy like that. But you put him back and a day later he's back on food. He's been 3 months before on hunger strike, get him back in the small tub and poof "give me food"
Something I learned along time ago is to give your snake what it wants not what you think it needs. I've had snakes eat before their first shed and then I've had them go a year off food, only to become an awesome feeder over night. I'd be willing to bet that only 80% or less of the Ball Pythons in captivity conform to the standard care sheet mold.
