I am so happy! Titus the seven year old retired breeder normal ball python we adopted last summer ate for the first time this winter. He ate f/t rats like a champ all summer, but stopped eating in September. He ate a maybe four times in November then stopped again. We moved early December and I read that moving stresses them out, he also had a bad shed. He's refused rat after rat, it didn't matter if I bled or brained them. This time my husband put chicken broth on the rat. We closed his tube and left in the dark, when we checked on him, the rat was gone. :cheers:
 
WOOP WOOP that's awesome!!

Their hunger strikes is one of the reasons I don't own a ball yet...I don't know if I could handle it...LOL
 
The hunger strikes are stressful but once you get through the first two or so and realize no harm has befallen the snake, you get over it.
