WHY Ball Pythons?

I think that-

-they are the perfect size. Not too large for me to keep easily. And not too small either.

-the morph combinations and possibilities are awesome.

-I get attached to my snakes, and they are all parts of our little family here! Not to personify them; but my husband and I know each snake's little quirks and appearance differences, etc.

-breeding is fun, rewarding, and slightly profitable.

The variety of colors
They don't get too big
Most are calm

The first thing I noticed about ball pythons is how beautiful they are. I think that even normal ball pythons are stunning, plus each one looks different from the next.
I like their size and girth, not to big, not to small.
I love their gentle demeanor, how shy they can be, and how they are so easy and such a joy to handle.
Add faces that are to cute to pass up and there you have it.

Man, everyone keeps saying "cute"... these are HIGHLY evolved rodent pounding machines. Its like calling a Hemi 'Cuda "cute". :D

P.S.
All readers who don't know what a Hemi 'Cuda is.. Google it!

Well I originally wanted to start my snake owning adventure with a corn snake. But I bumped into this place and read all up on Ball Pythons and was surprised on how easy they are to care for. The pictures baffled me and all the different morphs drove me off the wall. Needless to say I do have a Normal now. She is a darling and is in Shed now(first one) and I love ALL BP's morphs and looks. I hope one day to have a massive female to take care of. The bigger the better but not big enough to hurt me tooo much!
