Introducing Myself and my BP's
These are my babies! All are rescues, and very dear to me.
The darkest is Gizmo. He was my first snake, he is roughly 11 years old (They wouldn't feed him but they knew his age -_-). I will have had him for 2 years this December. And he has been confirmed male by the discovery of sperm plugs. (My vet tried to pop him but Gizmo didn't care for it, but sperm plugs were produced) His previous home hardly fed him so he was just skin and bones when I got him.
The lighter one is Xander, I do not know how old he is. I have only had him for about two months. His people simply could not care for him anymore, he was greatly cared for but was raised on live and refuses to change that. He was also confirmed male the same way as Gizmo.
And the smallest and lightest is Bandia which means goddess in Irish. She was a surprise gift/rescue from a friend. He quite literally sprung her on me after a pet store had her on sale where he worked. He was scared someone with no experience would buy her and wind up killing her as he has seen happen before with sales like that. So he got her figuring I would take good care of her, which I plan to do. Because she is a pet store pet and I have no experience with baby ball pythons I have no idea about how old she would be. The vet said she was a girl so I'm going with that haha. I have had her about 3 months now. She can be a tricky eater, I often have to put the head of her food in her mouth and then she will eat. I actually have yet to have her strike, minus the first day I got her, she was even thinner than she is now.
A bit about myself, I hope to be a large scale breeder of these beautiful creatures one day. There are so many morphs and I love them all so much. Um, I skipped out on my senior year of high school (Well that would be where I am now) But I got my GED and I'm currently in college getting my Vet-Tech degree/licence and am hoping to also get my bachelors in Business to make this hobby my career one day. But first I'd like to become a reptile veterinarian after the Vet-Tech so I can build a good cushion for my animals so I'm not just getting by. I have a lot of work ahead of me 
I have 3 rescue ball pythons  I am very proud to have them.
My dream is to one day be on the front lines of ball python color morphs and to be a proud and successful breeder of the magnificent and fascinating creatures that I have come to love and respect so much.
Any tips are always welcome! Id love to chat about these beauties and other reptiles as well.

Cool to have another Vet Tech student on here! What school do you go to?
Just as an FYI, none of your vet tech class credits will transfer to Vet School (other then your general eds).
