I was stuck between a rock and a hard place when my local reptile store closed. I was having to travel up to half an hour away to get mice for my ball pythons which was killing my cash flow gas on top of paying $3.00 a piece on 7 mice plus tax every week but they are my pet's so I had to do it no matter the cost. Tinley Parks NARBC show came and I got a bag of frozen mice and a bag of frozen rats. My only real fear was my 15 year old ball python would not take as he has always eaten live. Fed him a frozen today and he took it like a champ no hesitation at all and my younger ones followed suit so happy they are F/T eaters now.

Lucky you! I'm still trying to convert one of my big females. She hasn't eaten in a month. Hopefully next time she will take to f/t.

yay! it is so much easier to feed f/t. I've got 3 holdouts that refuse to eat f/t. If they don't get with the plan, they will be sold. :(
