I never touch roddents with my bare hands and still ball python's feeding habbits suck. I've tryed everything from having roddents with perfect body temperature to dry and wet roddents, blowing them with hairdryer prescenting the room etc and nothing helps . This guy's are just a pain. I wish I never started with a ball python, but i've had it for so long I can't just get rid of it.

Anyhow I decided to try live and since the little s. has never seen a live rodend in his life it was a bit confused but stroke with lightning speed within a minute and then I fed him another live mouse .
So now thereis no going back , but at least he's eating and the mice are free.
So I guess I'm stuck with breeding mice... Good luck to you all !
