Are you sure you didn't think that ball pythons ate worms, so you dangled a worm in front of it and it ate it, only to later find out that ball pythons eat rodents? If you did, it's no big deal. It shouldn't harm the snake other than maybe some loose, smelly crap, and at least you know better now.
I feed them to my oscar. I left it open and bumped the stand when I was opening the ball's cage. the container fell in.


If I wanted to see if ball python's ate worms...I would just say that.I'm not new to reptiles. That is why I thought it was strange that it ate it.
