The trick with ball pythons, is to make sure they have the proper environment. 92-94 hot side and 82-84 cool side. DO NOT let temps drop below 80. Two hides, one on each side. One week no touching. Attempt to feed. If they eat wait 48 hours (always wait 48 hours after a meal before handling), you could handle. You may want to wait until they have two meals in them, but you have to kinda use a judgement call. Oh and welcome to bp.net!!
