My first Ball Python

So i've wanted a snake for a long time and finally went with a ball python and i absolutely love him, i will probably have at least one more by the end of the year, possibly two. I'm thinking maybe a female pinstripe or female spider for breeding in the future?

Anyway here he is, my male pastel Zeus.

Gratz on your first. Thanks for sharing.

Like everyone says..."Welcome to the addiction". We got one for my daughter and my wife doesn't even like snakes. Now I have three and my wife bought the last one. This has all happened since this past March.

Congrats

Congrats! They are addicting.

Congrats on your first ball! My first was a pastel also. Well, he is still my only. I also plan on getting another soon. I love all my snakes, but along with my hognose, my ball is my baby! Have fun with him!

Congrats and welcome to the addiction.

Thanks so much everyone! i haven't had him for long but i can already tell this is a new addiction. Ill post pics of whatever female i choose in the next few months. Off topic question how long does it take them to be able to breed, i know its mostly weight so i guess my question is really, how long does it take for them to get heavy enough? Thanks again
