    Here is a pic of my Grandson holding our new Ball python We actually got him for free off of craigslist, he came with his aquarium cage too :). Unsure if it is a he, or she. But I call him he lol. He is about 2 or 3 years old. They just didn't have time for him anymore. He has never had live food only small F/T rats every 7 to 10 days is what they fed him. I have done quite a bit of reading here, very informative forum :) They have him on this reptile bark, I am thinking of just taking that out and using newpapers :) He is very shy, isn't very curious at all even when out, he does seem to get a little comfortable after about 5 mins out and start to look around and explore things. I have always loved snakes, but never really knew how much until I got this one :). I want more like a morph, but money is tight and honestly if he wasn't free we probably wouldn't have gotten him. My wife is stiff terrified of him though LOL. We also have 3 dragons which she was afraid of at first and now adores, 3 dogs and 2 cats, along with feeder dubia roaches, and super worms LOL. Wow sorry so long Just wanted to show him off a little, as well as my grandson :P

    Welcome. My wife was the same way and now she holds them when I clean the enclosures and even asks out of the blue to hold one of them. She will feel different when she sees how chilled out they are.

    Gorgeous snake and adorable grandchild!

    Welcome to the wonderful world of bp ownership. I myself joined the club last November. I just acquired my second bp this past weekend.

    Thanks for sharing the picture. Hope to see more in the future!
