    Hi

    IŽm new to these forums and IŽm not a native English speaker, so have patience with me.

    I have a 3 year old sinaloan milksnake

    and a 2 year old male Jungle Carpet Python

    but the bug for Royal (ball) Pythons has allways been there...

    So, recently a friend of mine gave me a 3-4 months old (normal) female BP. He had her for 2 months with an older female and - comprehensively - she stoped eating. She had missed 4 meals in a row and since he didnŽt have the room to separate her, he gave her to me.
    When she arrived at my home, I put her on a scale: 122g.

    I let her settle for a few days and tried feeding her a medium adult mouse (15g). After a few minutes hesitation, she took it!

    5 days later, I tried again. She didnŽt hesitate at all; 5 days later, another success feeding. I think sheŽs on her way.

    I donŽt have pictures yet - didnŽt want to disturb her - but will post some in the future. Her name is Accra.

    In another month IŽll also have another BP. A 2007 Pastel female (NERD line). Beautifull girl !
    IŽm just waiting for the confirmation from the seller and then IŽll post a picture.

    Next year, IŽll get a male spider. At least, thatŽs the plan.


    So, this is it for the timebeing. Hope to learn a lot from you all.

    Hello and welcome to the site! :welcome:

    Nice looking snakes and viv. :) I'm glad to hear about your new Ball getting her appetite back, and it sounds like you're pretty well prepared for your future snakes. Can't wait to see the pics.
