Rescued three year old Ball and need Help

[notAce]

"I hate people who neglect there pets then decide to dump them on someone else for there problem. But its just the greatest thing to hear when someone like you gives them a miracle of life im so happy for you you should be really proud of yourself. As for his skiddyness just start by hand-feeding him offer his food in your hand and when he starts taking it start slowly picking him up letting him go anywhere he pleases. Hope that helps.

please do not pay any attention to this suggestion becuase it's totally dumb

a) you never handle a ball python after its eaten expecially if its skiddish, it'll regurgitate it's food!! You should leave him alone for a while, preferably on the hot side of the tank to improve metabolism.

b) you never hand feed snakes, they'll mistake you for food and then they'll bite you. If this guy is skiddish it's becuase hes still getting used to his new environment. just leave him alone for the next week and you'll see a miraculous difference.

matt, please don't post if you don't know what youre talking about, from what i read you've got leos. not pythons.
