    Congrats on your snake eating! I always love to see a ball python eat as mine just came off a 7 month strike from eating, so a eating ball python is a nice sight to see.

    Thanks! Yea, he was on "live" when I got him last December, then I went straight to F/T mice for 4 months and now we're doin' the "rat" thang. He's such a good boy.

    Thank ya! That's what I was afraid of. Hope my new girl (Blade Clown) is as easy as my Pastel. (fingers crossed)

    Great advice! Thanks for sharing.

    I purchase 10 frozen each purchase online but this delivery the rats are black ,

    Hope the change to rats plus the colour change won't be too much of a difference .
    Good luck! Keep us posted!

    Thanks!! Glad to hear the strike is finally over! That's a good stretch, 7 months.
