Finally switching to frozen/thawed!!!!

[JodanOrNoDan]

Oh my ball pythons have taken mice before. Same as with the rat pups, pre-killed, actually i switched the female to rat pups just on friday because the mice hoppers were not cutting it anymore and she took the rat pup like it was chocolate cake. I was thinking that the next feeding (friday) instead of going and buying live rat pups to the reptile store (they dont do what you suggested, i asked) i go to petco and just for that day get the mice and see what happens. If it doesnt work, the next day i'll get them their live rat pups like usual. Do you still think something can go wrong? Im really asking for opinions, its okay if you say something can go wrong, who knows, you might be right

One thing about me is if it hasn't happened to me I will keep my mouth shut. So, the stuff I said has happened to me at least once. I am giving warnings as to what can happen. Sometimes everything works out fine. Getting balls off a mouse addiction can be a pain. I do have some that will take both no problem, but as a general rule once they are on rats they stay there. With the number of animals I have, feeding adults mice just wont work. At the end of the day you have to do what you have to do. Sometimes I have issues getting the right size rats for hatchlings. WHen that occurs I have to get mice, my rule though is they are not sold until they are on rats. Without knowing your animals I would give you a 75% chance of succeeding. You just have to accept that there is a 25% chance of a problem and it is not your fault. SOme of these animals can be really stubborn.
