Just looking at the first site I could find ball phythons-Bob Clark it mentions 2 months little contact and establishing a feeding pattern

Baby ball pythons are about 10 inches in length and are very shy. They will usually feed after the first shed. They should have a hide box and not be held often during their first few months of life to establish a good feeding pattern.
you can go to any search engine like I did for this one and pull up the sites, there are some that also talk about gout as a cause of death in one within a few months from stress of transport and not ideal enviroment.

Baby ball pythons do stress very easily, and that can have fatal effects on them, even if ideal enviroments happen later on. This one and its siblings should have never been put through this
