Snakes need warmth to digest there food. If they are not warm enough and then they eat they can poison themselves which is why they need a heat lamp.

Chances are that you are not keeping the Ball Python at tropical temperatures (85* F or so). Snakes need heat for activity and that includes eating. I suggest that you invest in a standard hot rock or under tank heater to keep the snake warm enough to eat in the winter.

well i guess ur python here needs some hibernation.he u dont put him in the sunlight for atleast 2 hours. he wont get fit enough to eat or digest its food.
so early morning is the best time for hibernation.
