Also since I didn’t see it mentioned yet... best time to weigh is after they’ve had a bowel movement. Weighing two days after feeding will give an artificially high weight because there’s still an entire prey item in the animal.
On the biting and not wanting to get bit subject.. no one “wants” to get bit. But as a snake keeper it’s no longer a matter of IF, but WHEN you will get bit. Luckily a ball python bite, especially from a juvenile, is not unlike being attacked by a barrage of cotton balls lol
