[ballpython101]

i have a bp.... she has been eatting regular size white mice...

unfortunally i dont get 2 see her eat because she eats like 1:30-4 in da morning(when im sleeping) so i wouldnt know until i wake up n see the mouse(f/t) has dissappeared ! i wanna know how can i have her eat 2 mice...?

should i place both of them in the cage or jus feed one each night ? also i would like to know... i will be goin away for a week n i cant take my bp with me and i dont have any 1 to watch her 4 6 days.... wat should i do to her cage or wat do u request i do b4 i leave her home alone ? she is in a 10g. right now i have a empty 30g. (not being use) if u want to kno her size check my gallery and u will be albe to see....

i was thinkin bout feeding her and leaving the night light on for the 6 days.....?

How bout working on switching to rats? The earlier you do this, the better it will be. Ball Pythons can be pain in the butt feeders :rolleyes: Until then, yes you can just leave the two mice in her cage overnight, just like you would one ;)
When you go away, make sure she has a clean dish of water and her temps are stable. Leaving her night light on if is fine as long as it provides proper daytime temps. She looks fine in the ten for now as well. Have fun on your trip :)

she should be fine for a week. i left my snakes alone for thanksgiving break, and i just made sure that their takes were securely shut, and i gave them fresh water. it also couldn't hurt to make sure the tank is clean of pee/poo, since there will probably be some in there when you get back. feed before you leave, for sure. i just left the black lights on 24/7 while I was gone, since I don't have a timer. :D

and I definitely agree with Linds...try to get on rats asap.

Eventually, the 14 mice that you'll have to feed her every meal would be much easier if you gave here one large rat. MUCH cheaper too.
