Re: What if BP's were a bigger species? Would u keep them?
I got my first Ball Python a few months ago. I was attracted to their docile nature and manageable size. Due to my age, not as young as I use to be, I couldn't see myself handling anything large and feisty.

for all the BP's i have, i've learned that the pet rock stigma is a general rule but not an absolute. sure most BP's like to hide. they ball up. but given good husbandry and space and individual personality, they are pretty active. i have two in display tanks and i pretty much see them scooting around every night. the most annoying thing is they can be picky eaters.

I have my BP set up in a display enclosure as well. Husbandry is fine. He is actually very active at night (when no one's watching lol) but during the day he would rather chill out in his hide and doesn't care to be handled too much. I understand this is all natural BP behavior. BP's are cool snakes just not my favorite which is why I only have one.

Holy crap! A 4,000 gram Ball? I've never seen one that large. Can you share some pics of him with us?
My vote is for double in size. I think a Ball Python that would reach the size of an adult female BCI would be awesome! I don't know how a lot of you feel about hybrids, but personally, I look forward to making some Super Balls in the future. How could a big fat Blood with the cool colors and patterns of a Ball not be awesome?
Great poll!
