Hi and welcome to the forum Jamie I'm feeding Blitz live hamster, and when i bought Blitz he didn't eat for 5 months there is other royals python who will eat in thier very first day, so it's up to snake's personality. |

yeah its normal for them not to eat if you only recently got them, it can take a week or two for them to settle in |

By any chance would u no how long you should leave on the heat lamp and the heat mat on for in the tank,should i leave it on 20 4 7 or just a couple oh hours.
If its attached to a thermostat then you should be able to leave it on as the thermostat will tell what temp it is turn it on/off when needs be. If its not then check your thermometers regualy and turn it off/on when you need to. Although it really should be stated, if you havent got one you should try to get one ASAP. Oh, I almost forgot, welcome to the forum  |

Hi and welcome, best way to freeze then is in the freezer. You wold get them from the shop frozen just add them into the freezer when you get home. Defrost, I have mine in a tupperware dish and just thaw till defrosted |
