I think the original poster was asking about hatchling ball pythons.

Have you ever tried to get hatchling ball pythons to take their first meal? LOL .... large enclosures and seperate feeding boxes really isn't the right way to go if you want them to eat.

Also, due to the shy and easily stressed nature of these animals, I advocate feeding ball pythons of all ages right in their enclosure. They will be more consistent feeders.
