My brand new Ball Python

Hey everyone,
My name is Luke...I'm new to this forum, and am also new to owning snakes. I just purchased my first Ball Python yesterday, and I'm already in love. Since I'm a bit inexperienced, I wanted to find a forum where I could ask questions if need be. Is the community fairly knowledgeable and helpful here?

Anyways, just thought I would introduce myself, and my new friend! Her name is Fiona and she's about 2 and a half months old...check her out:

This site is pretty much the best resource when it comes to ball pythons. I would suggest that you start out by reading these 2 threads:

@reptiliachnids, nice to meet you too! where abouts in Ontario are you from? and yes, you could say I'm a bit of a Star Wars fan lol...it's mostly my nickname though.

@TheSerpantMerchant, thanks...I will be sure to read these soon!

I love that she climbs!!
When I ordered Bobba's enclosure I had to make it high enough for his tree!
She's super cute !

Thanks guys!!! I knew she was a nice specimen, but it's nice to hear it from some true snake enthusiasts. As for me wondering if BP.net is a good community...my question has been answered. I've only been on here for about an hour, and I've gotten some great insight from you guys! Looking forward to meeting more people on here.

Welcome! Shes such a cutie :)

Also we love questions :D
