Feeding schedule for neonate ball pythons and such?

[asplundii]

Thanks for the hopper tip. How many months are we talking before force feeding, 2 or 3? Before I should start to be concerned.

Depends on the individual animal really. If it seems to be holding weight and not declining then I am less likely to force feed. If it is looking poor and losing weight rapidly then I try an assist feed to get it going.
