Re: ball python versus burmise python
The only thing I've ever heard of a bp being "mixed" with is an Angolan Python (I think I got that name right) and that is very rare. It's highly unlikely that you have a cross. It looks like a lovely, normal bp. However, they do sometimes come with unique "personalities" in that some are more active than others or more scaredy-cat or more fiesty, etc.
It would be good to describe the weird behavior to help rule out anything symptomatic of illness or injury or husbandry that isn't quite right.
EDIT: By the way....sweet looking burm, Sean! Is that yours?

Blood-balls? For real? I hadn't heard of that at all. Personally, I'm not into hybrids at all. But I don't have a moral argument against it like I've seen in some very heated debates on the issue.
