hello everybody! my wife and I recently just got our first ball python which we named julius.

he is about 3 or 4 weeks old, and i have not gotten him to eat prekilled prey yet. he ate yesterday no problem (first feeding in our care). my question is - how long will it take to get him to eat prekilled prey, and is there a good way to go about doing so?

another question - how much do these guys weigh when they reach maturity? i havent been able to find that anywhere, all i know is that they get to be about 4-6 feet.

thanks guys! ill post some pictures very soon
