Where to buy??

Hello, I'm new to the forum here and I've never owned a snake before, but I've been dyingggg to get one lol. I'm a big fan of the ball pythons look and lazy personality and think theres definitely what I want, but my problem is, idk where the best place to acquire one is! I don't want to go to the pet shop bc theirs always just don't look right, kinda unhealthy looking you know. And I was looking at ordering online, but big apple herps are farm raised, so idk if they'd be started as well and be as easily handlable as one raised on a home enviroment. So my question to all of you, if where did you get your snakes!?! I want to get a baby, whose feeding on f/t and been started out well, our if the farm raised points from big apple herp would make just as good a pet. Thank you all in advance!

Your best best is a reptile show. What state do you live in?

Online, there's FaunaClassifieds.com & Kingsnake.com just to start. Have you thought about reptile shows, if there are any within a reasonable distance?

Woww you guys are quick lol,i never thought about a reptile show, I'm located in massachusetts in the boston area, and id probably save a bundle on shipping and be able to find one I really like rather than just shooting in the darkwith online, do you happen to know of any names of them so I can google when their coming up.
