New here hoping to catch local breeder?!
First of all Hi to everyone. My name is Jack I'm 22 and im new Here and to snakes!? I currently live in north eastern Ohio (Cleveland area) and have been reading up about ball pythons for the past month or so and decided it's time to start setting up my cage. I plan on visiting a local reptile show but that isn't for another 3 weeks and I'm getting really anxious and don't think I'm gonna be able to hold off that long. My goal here is to hopefully find a local breeder or even reptile store that has healthy young snake hatchlings. I'm hoping to get a normal snake and possibly a lower end morph to start my collection. My budget isn't huge and I'm not really looking for a large snake to start off with. Any info tips hints or feedback is appreciated. I look forward to replies and any information this wonderful community is able to help me with.
Thanks again,
Jack

Update.... Not that anyone cares :0. I ended up setting up a glass tank with screen top. Added alpine substrate a few hides and a water dish. Set up my uth with a thermostat and had my tank ready 3 days after posting. My temps have been 80-85 and humidity hovering around 60%. I ended up picking a up a female spider ball python from my local reptile show and have been loving her. She had sunk right into her new cage and has been loving it I tried feeding her frozen thawed today and she struck and tried eating it 2-3 times but never actually ate it.

That show is very convenient as you can order from RodentPro and they will deliver your feeders to the show with no shipping charge. Very affordable.

Are you serious?? Does it matter which show they ship it to? Because that would seriously be amazing

Beautiful ball by the way, love the high whites on her side in the first pic. Love spiders. I assume you have read about spider wobble? If not, give it a quick google search. Just something to be aware of so that you don't freak out😊
