    New to snakes TX

    My name is Rita and I have recently become interested in snakes, well that’s not entirely true, I've like snakes for a long time but never had an opportunity to own any. I have three dogs and countless fish and one empty 90 gl aquarium. While deciding what to do with the tank I thought about getting a snake or two. I'm interested in ball python's and hope to purchase a couple sometime soon.

    Hi,

    Welcome to the site. A word of caution... Ball Pythons are very addictive. So many people start out with a snake or two and wind up selling off their furniture to make space (and money) for more snakes. That 90 gallon tank will be usless for Ball Pythons. They love small spaces and high humidity. Poke around and above all, have fun.
