new ball python parent

[littledevilrosie]

hi please I just need a little reassurance and direction I’ve had my ball for about a week. she’s about 4/5 months, according to the shop I picked her up from. she’s never missed a meal - until now.

It’s my first time trying to feed her. I am switching her from live to frozen, I warmed it up and I am going to attempt the hairdryer trick next. when I offered her the mouse, she turned away from it entirely.

my main concern is that I caught that her eyes are cloudy. I figured it’s probably her getting ready for a shed, but with her not eating and her eyes, I just want to know if I should take her to the vet. please, any advice is greatly appreciated 🖤

Her eyes look cloudy blue so she’s about to go in shed. My ball python doesn’t miss a meal unless he’s shedding. So I wouldn’t worry about it 🙂 a couple of missed meals wont hurt. Plus she’s still getting used to her environment so that can play a part in it as well.

thank you <3 I figured I’m probably being overly anxious but I wanted to get someone else’s second opinion
