I'm new! :)

Hi everyone!

I am new here and new to snakes. I've done tons and tons of research and I was so inspired by Ball Pythons, I decided to make a business out of it from the get-go! So, now I have seven baby ball pythons that I love. I have built them a rack system and they seem very happy in their tubs. I haven't had anything go wrong with them yet, but I am keeping a close eye on them all the time to make sure they are alright.

Anyway, just thought I would introduce myself! My name is Allie. :) I have always been an animal lover, so I am not new to having pets. Just snakes! :)

How about a question for you so we can get to know each other:

How did you get into ball pythons and why did it stick?

Also, feel free to share any tips that you think a newbie like myself should know! I have done my research, but I am always happy to hear from the veterans. :)

These are my babies! :)

You've got some good looking BP's!

Thank you very much!!

Welcome! To answer your question about why, for us its art. The genetic possibilities and different creations that can be achieved are awe inspiring. Everyday I see something new that id like to own/create.

Every egg is like christmas! What else can give you that feeling?

I agree! I find them breathtaking! I can't wait until mine are ready to breed. :)

Beautiful babies!! It's like living art :). Most of all remembering they are living! I love interacting with each one, they have such different personalities so to speak.

Welcome to the site! Your snakes look great!


As for me. I had a friend who had some ball pythons and started getting into snakes then. I got one of my own several years later and then the collection exploded from there!

Welcome. Where are you located?
