Great video! My Western Hognose sometimes goes for 3 months without eating. I've learned to chill out, not worry unless his weight drops or he starts to look poor. I've never had to scent his food. I didn't want him to get dependant on something like scent of I could help it. The simpler you keep the feeding process the better off you are in my humble opinion.

THIS IS SUCH A WONDERFUL VIDEO! Extremely reassuring to me as well. I also really would rather not breed rodents and kept being told that ball python hatchlings would never ever take f/t rats right off the bat, and I was on the fence about even trying to breed my lovely girl out of the fear of starving some newly hatched snakes that didn't know any better to survive. Seeing yours take those f/t rats is such a relief, but even moreso when you said you haven't had to feed live in 4 years and have had none starve, OOF, that destressed me completely about the issue.

I recently got a ball python and he didn’t eat for me when I first tried to feed him, then I moved and had to wait another week to try again. He still didn’t eat but he seemed interested, after watching your video I changed the time I fed him to later in the day, dimmed the lights in my room and made sure it was quiet at least an hour before I tried feeding him and I also let the rat thaw out for a bit in front of his enclosure. I then heated up the rat and fed him successfully, it was such a great feeling for me when he took the rat because I was getting worried, but you video really helped me a lot. Thank you so much!

Warm the rodent, make it move like a live one, and wait. Great vid! That's the same technique I use with my boas, though I admit sometimes I do live for a first feeding just to get them started. In the past I lived places where live rodents were hard to come by and I had one baby boa go 4 months without his first meal, stubborn thing. He wasn't losing body condition though, and eventually he ate and did just fine. Like you say, people worry and get impatient, but boid snakes are built to last. I admit I was worried at the time, though! Still a great learning experience.

I've never had issues switching from live to f/t. I've had a had time getting mouse eaters to switch to rats. And tips? I've found when switching to f/t if you feed a few live meals. Then skip a few meals. Then offer f/t the first meal after skipping a few. 95% of them will take them. My only issue I have with f/t is the amount of waste I have. Ones that don't eat on feeding day. That's a wasted rat and gets tossed in the trash. That's one plus to feeding live is a bit cheaper. I do have a small group of 8 animals that will only take live mice. Wish I could do 100% f/t. Maybe someday.

I have the same „pastel“ ball python. But I only can feed life, because she attacks the feeding tungs. I’ll try it again, but next time I let the mouse in the enclosure. As a nocturnal snake, I only feed at night because she won’t eat at day. But I’m afraid the snake gets hurt by the mouse or the mouse eats the thermostat sensor, because she needs half an hour to catch the mouse. And of course I don’t want the mice to suffer. They are not the usual white laboratory mice with red eyes, they are brownish patterned with black eyes - really beautiful and cute.

Im purchasing an adult male ball python soon and he's 6 years old and full grown, about 5 1/2 feet rn. he's feeding on large live rats but I'm hoping to transition him into f/t. so my questions would be how do u recommend doing that? also how often should I feed him? as well as he currently is living in a 25gallon enclosure but i do know that fully grown they should have a bigger enclosure. I've been told 55gallon would be good. so what do u recommend? should I keep him in the 25g or switch him to something larger? how can I transition him to f/t? and how often would be a healthy feeding schedule for him? I'm well rounded with snake care but am inexperienced when it comes to fully adult bp/s.
