My wife just got me two Ball Pythons. One is 2, the other is 3 and they are both about 4 feet long. If any of you have any experience with these pets, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm really looking forward to seeing them. I haven't named them yet, but I will as soon as she gets me some pictures of them. Any suggestions?

 

How about Pork & Beans, Have fun with the new pets hope you have alot of room in your freezer for the mice

 

Will they eat frozen mice?

 

yes they will eat frozen but you have to thaw them out first

That helps a lot. Thanks man

 

ive had two ball pythons. once you start feeding them somthing don't change. i had one that got hooked on hamsters, pain in the ****. if your thinking of mating them don't bother. they lay eggs and you have to incubate them where as a boa or reticulat have live babies. too much hassel mating *****. anything else just ask.

 

feed them live stuff ...imo

 

I'm as excited as a nervous ferret after a triple expresso. I'm like a fat kid in a candy store on Christmas. I can't wait to see them

 

becareful because they eat farrets too

they say feed them dead mice so there is no chance of the live mouse bitting or cuasing any other injury to the snake during the attack.

 

That's what I was thinking after reading that article. I'd rather not have my snakes scarred up. Besides... the snakes don't get to have all of the fun! J/K
