Hello,
I am new here. I grew up with two boa's, and I love snakes but my family doesn't so I just now have the chance to get another. i really love ball pythons so i have decided that They will be the first snake I will get. I have thre other reptiles (going on 5) I currently have a Gargoyle Gecko, a Leopard Gecko, and a schnider's skink. I am getting a panther chameleon in a month or two, and a BP hopefully at the upcoming manchester, NH reptile expo. I just have a few questions about them.
1) If i get a baby what size tank should it start out in? I was told 10Gal is that correct?
2) Is a 20L okay for a full grown male?
3) is there a differance in temperment between male & female?
That is pretty much it. Ohh sorry one more.. 4) This snake is not being kept at my house it is going to be at a good friends house, and then hopefully I can get it to my house, but It can stay with the friend as long as needed (so no worries about it being homeless) How often is handleing needed to become friendly. Is going to see it every to every other weekend okay?
Thanks!
