    Hello all,
    Imnew to the site as well as snakes in general. I have always wanted ball pythons but never had the time place or been ready to really do this the right way. so i jumped in recently and am having a GREAT time. My first snake is a normal female wild caught as an egg and captive hatched. Her original owner didnt have time for her and couldnt get her to eat. I have her slammin ASF hoppers and she is doing great! a little shy and starting her first shed! after having her i picked up two more. i have two males about 10mo old. both from metal monkey exotics. one has papers but im told both are the same. they are het hypo. one is eating like a horse he will eat two to three mice every other day if id let him. the other that is papered hasnt eaten in a couple weeks and doesnt seem to interested. both handle really well which is importnant to me as i have 4yo twins that love to be around when they are out.

    i will load more pics later, this is my female we call Cleopatra

    Oh! One of mine had a bad shed once. I put her in a small container with warm water and a wash clothe. She worked it all off her self. It took her around 30 minutes.
