I've had a male normal ball for about five years now. I've been away at college for the past four years. My parents have been taking care of my bp. I would have brought him to college if I could, but I lived in the university's housing for the whole time (they didn't allow snakes). Anyways, I have graduated, recently acquired a job, and am moving about 5 hours away from home. I have been apartment hunting and I really want to take my snake with me. However, my parents are dead set against it. But then he just ends up here at home again... My parents keep saying, "They won't allow him and you can't hide him. What if he gets out?" (He has never escaped in the past 5 years that I've had him). -.-

Anyways, I need advice. Does anyone live in an apartment that allows snakes? Or does anyone live in an apartment that does not allow snakes but still keeps them? What should I do?

5 years ago my bp was an impulse buy, but he is very important to me and I know he is my responsibility (In my opinion pets are not dispensable).

Help!
