    First, I'm pleased you've learned so much from this site. I've learned a great deal myself. However, I would be alarmed if one isolated incident made you decide to stop posting here. As nacash stated, the posters in this thread are simply going with the generally accepted wisdom of keeping ball pythons. The advice is there for you to take or not to take, that is your decision. You could be the exception to the rule, but people are concerned nonetheless.

    please keep posting on here. This isn't a scenario involving right and wrong. We've all had people tell us differently on this forum. Sometimes any of us will take advice given, and sometimes we won't. The reason you should stay on this forum isn't so anyone can set you straight, but it is so you can educate us and others through your experiences, your achievements, and your failures. That is why any of us join forums. We want to have an open and effective dialogue about our hobby. I hope you will continue to offer your own perspective on ball python care.

    Very well put! Couldn't have said it better myself. This is why I frequent places like this, there are so many different outlooks on every situation. If I don't like the response one person gave, I can wait a few minutes and see what someone else has to say.

    Like nacash said, please don't leave! I would hate to see anyone step away from this site when there is so much to be learned!

    Who's assuming what now? I am not a breeder...all of mine are pets and I keep them safely in their own enclosures. I handle mine daily and keep them as pets for me and my son who loves them just as much as me. Without proper quarantine, you are risking your snakes' lives and health. Now if one gets sick, the other will as well. If one had parasites, now the other does too. People don't say these things just because we like to. I would personally LOVE to have all of mine in a nice little snake pile living in my fantasy happy world, but this is reality. As someone else mentioned, what you consider "cuddling" is a dominent gesture. For an unexperienced owner, it's just not safe or ideal for the snakes. But you're clearly going to do whatever you want regardless of what any of us "know it alls" tell you, so why even argue? Anything pretty much anyone posts on here is to help others, not attack. Don't be so quick to become defensive.

    Are you kidding me? Alright, but for the record I wish you luck in finding things out the hard way like I have had to and a lot of other people have had to. It's not fun, I was just trying to help. And "we" don't have a problem, you do...I was just simply stating that you must not have been informed of the risks of keeping them together. I was leaving work when I posted and didn't have time to link any of the 100 other threads on this same subject with a lot of useful info on them. My intent was not not come off as rude, so I apologize if that's how it seemed.

    It goes a long way if your take the time to type out proper sentences with a little bit of proper spelling. With the way you type, I have a hard time believing you take fantastic care of your pets and admit you look as if you have no idea what your doing. I could be more blunt, but if you want to follow the advice of said breeder, by all means. Just remember, most people that get hostile don't really care about your silly reasons or your justifications, they just care about your snakes. In any case I hope it works out for you and that your snakes do very well. Good luck,
