Finally got my baby blood to eat!

[Theweinz]

Been about two months since she was sent to me. She would not even look at f/t and my local and only pet store recently closed! I immediately put together a small mouse colony and finally had some suitable hoppers for her and she went to town on them! Always at night in the dark, but she is feeding regularly and I am one happy camper!! Her parents are beautiful so I cannot wait to see some color change. She is filling out nicely. Will get some photos up soon. She is about 5 months old and has yet to shed. How long before I can expect her first shed?

Congrats on getting her to eat regularly.As for the first shed it takes a very long time for blood pythons.At least three to four months.I bred some Bloods last year...they are about six months old and have yet to shed!

Thanks Trent,
I will feel better once it sheds. Bloods are fascinating snakes. Thanks for your imput.
