Hey I just got this new python yesterday and he ate a mouse today. He also had one yesterday at the store but they told me to try when i got him home and i did but the mouse was fast and scared him. So i had to kill the mouse and freeze it. So today i thawed it out and put it in hot water. Dropped it in there and left when i came back an hour later and it was gone and he was just looking at me like was that it.lol and went is his hide box. I just think that it cool that he was ready to eat and everything and is not scared or anything. Not bad for being at home for 2days.
