Went into the study the this mornign and my 9 year old inland python was out and in hunting poistion. Thawed a rat and she smashed it. It dissappeared quickly. Earliest time in any year that she has been out and looking ready tto eat. Normally this is a mid to late Septmber event.

Anyone else having snakes out eating early? My other two are still hding away.
 
Some pythons eat all year, especially non breeding females. It varies between individuals and years/weather and how much they were fed in the previous season etc. Sounds like your girl felt more hungry this year than she usually does :)
 
Gave most my girls a small feed. Also have a md het silver pepper hatchling girl I’m growing out.
 
Gave my 2 non breeders a nice big meal this morning :) time to stock up
 
Yeah , one of my coastals is doing the same. Last winter he showed no interest in food till mid september. Could be global warming i guess.
