A "Royal" Picnic

Under a dead ohio sky,
Eleven has been and will be waiting,
Defending his light,
And wondering...
Where the hell have I been?
Sleeping, lost, and numb.
So glad that I have found you.
I am wide awake and heading home.

some people hate em, some love em. i personally like the feeding photos because they are a fact of ball (or royal, what ever you prefer) pythons life. how many people that dont like these snakes come here and look at the pictures anyway? if they are then what are the lookin at? there is plenty of anti-snake ammo out there. a few pictures of snakes eating mice/rats isnt hurting anything.

sorry if i upset anybody here with the pics. i didnt mean to. it is exciting when they start to eat cause to me i think that means that everything is going well and that the snake is happy.
sorry again.

why i think that he stopped eating was because the temps and everything were jumping up and down all the time. we finally got a mini space heater that works wonders. i have the room temps at around 88 to 94.
is it okay that the temps go up and down like that? they dont get any lower? i figure that if the snakes where in the wild the african weather will do the same. like winds and stuff. but its really nice and warm in the room. but iam still learning too, so any help would be great.
thank you

I would think variations in temps between 88 and 94 would be OK. You're right about temps in Africa, they DO fluctuate . As long as they don't get much lower, or stay to high, for any length of time you should be fine.
