Lurking for quite a few days, thought i might as well join in

So, I'm Ashley-Christena, I have three BPs Well, one is mine two are my dad's. I'm 15 I normally am in Virginia unless i'm with my dad then i'm in Las Vegas, My snake's name is Queen Ghosty. Our other's names are Monty Python and Kah. I was strictly Corn snakes then al four of my Corn snakes died after i got Queen Ghosty and her brother Princey. Princey ended up dying and it took me fives weeks to get her to eat. Thats, basically it!

I'm sorry to hear about your other snakes, but ball pythons are fun, you'll love them. Any how, welcome to ball-pythons.net and I hope you enjoy it here!

I'm finding it fasinating because i'm use to Corn snakes, who don't grip my hand or contristrict their food. I LOVE watching the Ball Python's eat. Its so interesting! I'm enjoying it here as well, i never knew that they could be bred for so many bright colors!

Yes, they are fascinating, and the morphs are gorgeous as well. I'm glad you are liking it here, there are many people willing to help if you need it, including myself.

welcome lurker :P you came to the right place if you have a snake of practically any kind :snake:

Its always nice to have help [: and I'm noticing most snake owners have more then just snakes... We have 1.1 Geckos and 3.1 turtles [: Well, other then the snakeys

Welcome to BP.net Ashley-Christena :gj: Any questions you may have feel free to ask!!!

Hello Ashley, and :welcome:to BP.net. Feel free to post some photos. We always like those... :D

Hi, Ashley. I used to have 2 cornsnakes along with my 2 boas and 3 pythons. They were very pretty. I had a candycane corn and a sunfire or sunburt I`m not sure which. but he was BRIGHT orange. They were very nice snakes, but they ate ALOT and were the type of snake that was always on the go. They loved to be held, but you could`nt just "hang out" with them. If anyone`s had a CORN, THEY KNOW WHAT i`m saying. Anyway. I gave the both of them to a realy good person.He enjoys them very much. I still have my constrictors and if you look at my gallery photos you will see all of them. So, to the point, I welcome you and I love to help. I`m sure there are people here that know a lot of tecnical stuff about snakes, but I am more interested in behaviors. so If you have ?s about that kind of thing, than I`m sure I could be of some help. Agian, welcome and enjoy your Python!!:snake::D I also recently adopted a baby green iguana. Can`t forget about him. I am learnig a lot about him on my own. The correct way to keep them, my daughter helps me with, but as far as calming him down, that is up to me. :)

I had an Amel, a Snow, a Butter, and an Aztec Amel. I do love the orange colors of Corn Snakes. And they do eat A TON! All of mine were all up on 2 mice every feeding day because they were so ravenous when eating. They do seem to just MOVE everywhere, i had one that would just lounge on my shoulder though [: She was my favorite. To my Python, she's kinda hissy, well... more then kinda hissy everytime i would open the tank she would hiss at me. But never has she striked at me. Right now my mom [who i have trained well in the art of taking care of snakes] is taking care of her while i'm in Las Vegas.

I wonder if it has something to do with gender with corns that made your corn "layed back" as you mentioned you had a girl that would sit on your shoulder. I am real interested in different behaviors in reptiles. It fasinates me. They all have different temperments, and if you study them well enough, you can pretty much tell what they want, will do, want to do...ect.
As I said, welcome and it is always nice to look at photos of different people`s animals. I am somewhat of a shutterbug. :)

I think it did, because, even though Lilly's name was femine, Lilly was male and he would NOT sit still for ANY length of time. Coral would chill on my shoulder, in my sleeve, on my lap, Basically anywhere i set her down she'd chill with me. The Ball Pythons i've handled, are busy little bees [: Always moving about. Yes, they do have VERY different temperments, I noticed, some of my Corns would let me touch there heads, some likes the waters, whiles others didn't like either or. I use to be camera happy myself when it came to my snakes, but i haven't been recently since my favorite subject died, i will have to start getting back into that habit. Maybe i can take a few shots of my dad's Pythons...

It would be nice to see your photos. Nice to meet you, Asley-Christena. I hope to hear from you about your progress with your baby.
