Ball Python Feeding Guide

Young and small snakes start with tiny frozen mice. As they grow, they need bigger prey. It's important to match the prey size to your snake's diameter. Choosing between live and frozen prey has its own set of challenges. Each option has its own benefits and risks for your snake's health.

Ball pythons do best on whole prey, usually frozen-thawed mice or rats sized about the same width as the widest part of the snake's body. Most juveniles eat about once weekly, while many adults eat every 1-2 weeks.
