Feeding

In the wild Ball Pythons naturally eat small mammals, amphibians, lizards, birds, and sometimes other snakes. It is best to choose a captive bred ball python because most likely its diet will consist of mice or rats, unless you plan on going out and catching small snakes and lizards for it. Most pet stores carry mice and rats live and frozen cheaper for feeding purposes only. Most ball pythons will eat live mice, but getting a ball python that will eat a frozen mouse or rat isn’t always as easy. It is much better to get your python to eat frozen mice though and it is much easier since you do not have to make so many trips to the pet store or keep a little city of mice yourself.
