Hello. I just bought one of the 2013 BP hatchlings at LLL Reptile (after a lot of research I assure you, the sale was just well-timed) and he's the most gorgeous boy. I didn't expect to be lovestruck so quickly, but he's just too sweet for words. I was extremely tempted to hold him, but I just put him in the tank to prevent extra stress.
I've had a corn snake before, but this is my first Ball Python. Even if I've done my research, there's still so many things that could go wrong. ^^;
