I have learned a $200 lessens. My Jungle Carpet Python got bit by a mouse last month, in the lower jaw(I wish she would eat rats but that’s a different subject) that I thought I had thumped adequately. It got abscessed and I had to visit the vet. Now I have to soak her, flush the abscess, and give her a shot for 10 days. It sucks! All because I was too lazy to hold a F/T in front of her and make her think it was alive. My balls are on live also because they got picky last year and would only eat live.

So, the whole lot of them are going back on F/T! I know that some of you say,” That’s what happens in nature”, but a lot die in the wild also.
