My first Ball Python

Here he is!!!
He's super shy, so please excuse the terrible photos. This is the first time I've had him out in the week and a half I've had him. Next time I promise the pics will be better.

He's a bit more friendly in his cage.

Thanks!
I love the pieds, they are the reason I started looking at balls. Instead of going out and getting a less expensive morph, I waited and saved up until I had enough/ found a male I could afford.

Great looking first snake! I just got my first, but it's not a Pied :(

Congrats! You're one of the lucky!

Nice pied boy :gj:

Thanks everyone!

btw, his name is Wilhelm.
Eventually I want to breed him, in fact I'm looking at a nice super pastel female right now. That or a lesser. (but I'm not getting babies for quite a while, he's still a baby!)

I'm just happy he's a good eater. He took a mouse no problem a couple days ago.

I wish my first was a morph:(

But I got a normal, and don't ever regret it. Good luck with the new guy!:gj:

Not many people can say their first ball python is a pie.

Respect :bow:

I just cant imagine what #2 will be:O

I do have expensive taste, but after paying for him I can't afford anything else! lol.
Well, except a female. :P

Just a quick update, I found a female for him!!! It's going to be quite a while before they breed (she's just a baby), but this is just a pet project for me. I only have room for a couple snakes so she and my pied are it for now.
She's just a baby, but here's the breeder's picture.

Damn son go big or go home is the only way you roll. haha
Nice super though, you should send her my way when she is breedable. :P

Congrats for your first snake! +1 for the wow, having a pied as a first snake!

Wow! A pied and a super pastel as your first two ball pythons... I like the way you think!!!

They're both awesome!

Love your taste in royals, I also have a pied (not too dissimilar to yours) and I'm picking up a super pastel at the end of this month. You will find room for more; promise. I love my pied to bits, stunning snakes & love the ones with about 50% white-yours is just about perfect in my eyes. Only shame is mine's not such a good feeder but the clever boy managed a 36g mouse on Sunday :)

Thanks everyone!

Lol, she's got a long way to go before she's breedable.

Great minds think alike!
I'm soooo lucky my pied is a good eater. So far he's taken food no problem. I'm hoping the female is the same.
