Why so long?

females have to be pretty old before they can mate 3-4 years old, dont they?

Wow; she needs a warm, correct tub right away.

Most about 3 years.

It's ok, be calm, shes in her new HEATED tub and chillin at about 94 degress, i misted the tank a little but I dont have a hydrometer so dont know the exact % of humidity in the tub, will be getting that tomorrow along with a thermostat to control the UTH. here is some more pics of her in her new home. Note there is no water bowl in the tub, I added it after she went into one her hides, its just a little plastic dish in the middle.

((Note the little tail sticking out, she was crawling around her tub and I caught the end of her going back into her hide, lol))

Can't get over how small and cute she is. What you all think?

Just make sure you quarantine her from your other snakes.

Alright...how many ball pythons are gotten rid of a year? there seems to be tons, but not a ton of buyers...what is with that?

Oh she is, def. Her tub is actually on the other side of my room on a lower shelf, where as my male's tank is on the other side of the room ontop of a book shelf. You talking about just so she is safe or incase she has an illness?

Don't follow ya on this one?

They seem to be selling really quick here, they said that morning alone they already sold 12-15 of em....not alot out of 500, but still alot for one mornings worth of sales.

you really should consider quarantining your new ball python in a different room. be sure to feed, clean etc your exisiting snake(s) before going over to her enclosure and be sure to wash up really well in between each snake.
