    My First BP!

    Hello everyone! I am new to ball pythons. Actually I am completely new to snake keeping. Snakes have always interested me, and I have always had great experiences with them. I researched them for over 2 years, but could never buy one as the time wasn't right. About 3 months ago I asked my good friend (and reptile vet) to help me choose a ball python. He agreed and I just got the little guy two days ago! My friend told me that he is around 6 weeks old. So just a little guy. Anyway, here are some pics (by the way...any ideas on names? I am thinking about Apollo):


    All curled up!


    Away he goes!


    Stretched out to see his length.


    And finally..my favorite marking on him...the stripe down his neck.


    Thanks for looking. As I said I am a total newbie. Thank goodness I have the help of a vet! But any other recommendations would be great. Keep in mind...I live in Mexico (I am from the U.S.) so pet supplies here are a little hard to come by.
    See you around!
