    Please Help Identify this Snake

    Looking at getting a Ball for the family and someone in my area has this snake for a reasonable price, very tame. Says it is a Burmese but looks like a Ball to me. Please help clarify if possible by the pic as I amwilling to provide a home to a 6ft snake, but not a huge-mongo ft snake. Please help.

    Ball Python...and don't worry about the 6'. Not much chance of it getting over 4-4 1/2 ft.

    Re: Please Help Identify this Snake

    I have owned a few Balls in the [past so I was pretty sure of myself but it has been over ten yrs so I just wanted to make sure. Joined the group as this appears to be a place for a wealth of info. Thanks for the info and quick responses.

    I am sure I will be able to provide a nice home for one. Also had Green Ig's in the past. My 16yr old daughter got a corn snake about two months ago and ever since I have had snake on the brain. Thank you for the warm reception.
