Line 24 ⟶ 34:
In captivity most are fed mice as juveniles. Adults will take rats. Ball Pythons have a reputation for being picky eaters, but this is much more of a problem with snakes caught from the wild rather than captive-bred because they prey-imprint early in life, and it can be difficult to convince them to switch prey items. Offering different food items instead of just mice usually solves this problem, especially in captive-breed animals.
Like all ectotherms,[[cold-blooded]] animals, they must be housed with an external heat source, and they must also have enough space to be comfortable. Contrary to folk-myth, snakes do not stop growing their penis to fit their housing space.
