Hi all... I am looking for a caring home for my Ball Python. He is a GREAT snake but it has become too much of a responsibility issue for my son (and me with the birth of my new daughter). My son has "lost" him 5 times in the house when I've been busy tending to his new sister, sometimes we go days without finding him . Anyway, for the good of the snake I need to find him a home with a more responsible "daddy".

The snake will be one year in October, was CBB from a breader here in Columbus Ohio, he eats a live medium rat every other week with absolutly no problems except some times he strikes and misses and he sheds regularly around once per 5 weeks. He is extremely tame, I would have bitten my son if I were the snake, but he never has. He doesn't even hiss when my son gets him out, I'm unaware, while he is deep blue in the shed. I know not a good thing... and that is why I am trying to find him a good home. Let's see... he is a Normal perfect size and weight, that's what his breeder tells me when we go in to get his meals. But I don't have a scale to weigh him. He has been housed in a 20 gallon glass viv with a solid wood top and 40watt heat source. The solid top has made for perfect humidity just like his breeder said so he has never had a problem with shedding. He is housed on newspaper and has had two hides on either side of the viv. Anyway, the viv can go with him but there is a crack in the glass from my son accidentally dropping the top while getting him out. Again, why I'm finding him a more responsible home.

I will not mail him anywhere but would prefer him to be picked up here in Columbus Ohio. Please email me if you are interested... Include an email address if you would like me to send some pictures... it's too much work to post them here.

Thanks for you time.
