Ball Pythons (Live Feeding)

It's a live feeding, don't get all freaked out. Most of my snakes wont eat frozen thawed. So If you carefully watch them, live feeding isn't bad. Enjoy!!

ok so i have a question i personal dont think it is but i have heard from people that think live feeding is bad because your snake can get hurt but i have seen my friends feed their snakes live and never get hurt 1 of them have a Burmese pythons and the other has 2 ball pythons im looking into getting a ball pythons any tips for me?

@explorer617 , I have known mice or rats to injure the snakes. As long as you keep a good eye out for your animals, live feeding is okay. I don't leave the feeders in for very long, the snake has a few minutes before i take the feeder out and try again another day. Burms do well with frozen thawed mice. Ball pythons are picky eaters and really like live food. Hope this helps.

how long was ur caramel female off of food for

@OGSCRAPS , about 8 months. My buddies Lesser went off food for 10 months. Not sure why these snakes do that. But its very normal for them to go off food.

@iLLz32 Same problem here in NJ Kind of hard to get consistantly. We can not bring them in across the border they have to be bred here in NJ. which begs the question.... how did they get here in the first place LOL.

@Infinityherps , I wouldn't mind some ASF rats myself. But there is no local shop that i know of, who sells them. I have also tried the frozen thawed rat, But my snakes dont' respond to pre killed food. So I must watch them like a hawk during feedings. make sure none of them get hurt... Thanks alot bud!
