royal python feeding

Thought I would open a post about an excellent feeding Royal Python! Yes, you read it correctly a Royal Python who feeds well. No April Fool, not an oxymoron and no bigger boat needed. Poppy a pinstripe and my sons snake is generally an excellent feeder. Normally takes every week without fail...

Oh, here we go, another Royal not eating ? Well, No. Hatched last November, About 380g. Always fed great (2 days after purchase). On mouse fluffs, up to Small/Medium mice, then rat fluffs and now small rat weaners. Feed one a week (don't want to power feed). Fed him Sunday 13th, by Wednesday...

My spinner has jus took a rat after a year of not eating! Just as I was going to start trying alternative methods :2thumb:

Hi guys, I have two royal pythons who have been living up to there finicky reputation. My 3 year old female and 2 yr old male(seperate tanks) refuses to eat rats and no matter what tricks I try they won't eat rats but if I dangle a mouse or multimammate on the other hand they both eat. With...

Just curious, you see so many threads saying 'My Royal isn't feeding' etc. and obviously most of us know Royals are no stranger to fasting. But does anyone have a Royal that never misses a feed? Never fasts at any time of the year?

HI I have recently purchased a four month old female royal python. But am a little unsure how often I should feed her, as the reptile shop we got her from was feeding her once a week, however she seems to be looking for food before the week is up. I have read lots of literature which suggests...

is a royal python feeding really that hard?

My female lesser weighing around 200g has eaten every time food is offered since i got her (Pras end of october 2011) however the last 3 attempts she strikes/constricts and then leaves it, i offer it again same thing happens. I was offering small weaners which she was taking, have tried rat...

Okay, so my 4 1/2 year old royal has been a terrible feeder for the past 12 months. Tonight I'm going to combine individual tips for getting non-feeders going again into a triple whammy, non-feeder combo (I'm copyrighting that). Firstly, I'm going to use multi-mammates. Secondly, I'm going to...

Eh, someone wants to tell my lot that! 7 royal pythons fed in under 11 minutes, start to finish. Strike fed (one drop) and that's with me filling in paperwork between snakes. JOB DONE. I <3 my Royals. Just felt like gloating :Na_Na_Na_Na: :lol2:

Hey up everyone :D Just finished writing up my post to help deal with belly/scale rot and thought I'd also post up this little tip, which I found to work rather successfully... Briefly, I didn't have any problems when I initially got my Royal Python, Lola, with regards to feeding. She has been...
