    Unboxing my first BP this morning from Maestro Exotics

    After months of research, tons of reading, relentless searching, I finally made the plunge and bought my first ball python. This is my first reptile pet of any kind, ever. I've always liked the idea of owning a snake but never was in a position to care for one until recently. This morning was super exciting for me to unbox my first and undoubtedly not last snake. I had a fantastic experience with the breeder, Maestro Exotics; as a new owner I had tons of questions and they were all answered quickly and thoroughly. I couldn't be happier with the healthy and alert appearance of my new snake as well as the care in packing for shipment. The pictures of me handling him are only from the brief opening the snake bag he was shipped in, and then transferring him to his new tub. I will be leaving him alone to acclimate for the next week and then we will see how this guy feeds. Thanks everyone for creating such a friendly community for new and seasoned enthusiasts!





















    *Pic of tub with thermometer is from when I first set it up, current temperatures are appropriate*

    Congrats on your new pretty boy!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
