I got my ball yesturday and she ate her first rat today

waldo Nov 27, 2004 02:20 PM

I picked up my ball yesturday,she is 3-4 years old and 4-41/2 ft(I still have to mesure her).Her previous owner was feeding her 2 mice every 10 days and I didn't think that sounded like enough so I wanted to switch her over to rats.I was concerned that she wouldn't switch easily but this morning she took a medium rat without a problem I have named her Damballa which means Snake-God in the Caribbean voodoo religion.She is a normal but very pretty,I will try and get some picture soon.Any advice on how often I should feed her? ever 2 weeks sound ok? thanks for any advice

ok well my bp is approx 3ft 7" and i feed him a pre killed(thats all he takes) medium rat every week and he takes it and sometimes comes out a bit earlier looking for food so you can try it that way and if it dosen't take it all the time u can try doing it like eveyr 10 days and if not then do the 2 weeks mine tends to be very hungry within 2 weeks..lol.
