Describe your ball python

My normal male is a lazy bum when he is in his container. I hardly ever see him move too much but as soon as i take him out he wants to climb on everything including my head. What kind of personality does your BP have?

same here

Spider: very shy
Pastel: hissy pissy
Normals: some shy, some come right out and say hi and are very inquisitive
Butter: pretty fearless since she's settled in
Het OG: ^same as my Butter
YB: inquisitive but will ball up sometimes
OG: VERY inquisitive, always right there when I open the tub. Very fearless little dude
Black Pastel: very shy
Albino: pretty shy too
Pinny: pretty fearless

I hardly see any of ours move around unless it's feeding day or the day before then we see them cruising a little at night.
Our one het Russo I never see him but it seems like if he notices us in the room he parks himself on top of the hide and waits. As soon as my daughter slides his tub out he climbs right out to her.

My female normal is routinized - comes out at almost the same times every day (around 10:00 AM, 5:00 PM, 10:00 PM). She's relaxed when held, seems pretty low stress

My sole BP is a total pig. She would eat until she was sick. Most people keep a boa as a garbage can. Not me- all rejects go to her. Sure is nice not having to worry about the fastidious BP food issues!:)

Normal- Always trying to get out and likes to play with hair
Spider- Pig and pretty lazy. Loves to climb
Pastel- Shy girl that will poke around a little if she's let out of her tub
Cinnamon- Very jumpy and very shy. turns into a beast during feeding time though. It's scary :P

Yea thats for sure. My male has taken a meal every saturday since i got him which was around 9 months ago. He literally strikes within 10 seconds every time. Hope he keeps it up.

Oh lord, I could go on about my normal female forever.

She's a total pig and a total priss. She never refuses a feed even during her shed. She refuses to have anything to do with water and she always lets me know when she has pooped. She refuses to go in the hide she pooped in and sits on top of it, when I clean it out and put in new substrate, she will pat her nose on the new substrate making sure I got it all.

My normal is I swear a species confused bp. He cruises his cage 3–4 hours a day and all night. He"s never balled since I've owned him, he prefers behind his water bowl, the top of his hot hide or under his cold hide (not in it) its a solid box with a hole cut in it. He only touches the substrate when he chooses to. He has a game of going from his hot hide, over his water bowl to his cold hide without ever letting anything more than his tail touch the bedding. And he does this weird neck kinking thing that reminds me of an accordion when I agitate him. And he's always drinking water I see him with his head in the bowl 20x a day, and he loves to tease my dog.
