Re: My first snake, and ball python.

Optimistic, I bought some frozen/thawed mice and she chowed down almost immediately! I was so relieved and so proud of how good of an eater she was. I'd love updates on your Lil guy!
I'm glad to hear!!! I was told this guy has been eating frozen, but I'll know for sure when I try feeding! I've heard the live can be a hassle, and since I actually have a couple pet mice It'd be nicer not to feed live. Lol
I'll be sure to keep an updated progress log of photos going on this guy! Do you have an pictures of yours?

I don't get to see mine slithering around a cage considering they're all in tubs. But I handle them all every other day, so I still get to witness the beauty that they are... there's nothing like a Ball Python.... well, even though I'm starting to lock in to the bigger pythons now lol.

Thank you!!! I considered going the tub route, but got a set-up for a steal so decided to start with this and see how it works out. I'll have to upgrade tanks at some point, so tubs may be in my, and my snake's, future. Haha. I really love the ball pythons, but I'm also a huge fan of the green tree pythons. I had a hard time deciding between the two, but figured the ball was probably a better first snake, and couldn't be happier so far!!
