I got my first ball a little more than a month ago, hes a normal ball, about 2.5 feet, hatched aug '06, and hes the most docile and friendly snake ever.

Im concerned about this weird whistling sound I hear from him when hes inspecting my ear, it sounds like pressured expulsion of air, and its not at every breath, only once in a while. Possible respiratory problem?

Also, considering his size, I've been feeding him 2 adult mice a week, but I want to make the transition to F/T Weined rats, theyre more convienient and more nutritious, I was wondering if he would make the transition well since hes used to killing his own food?
