Finally ordered my very first Ball Pythons! (pics)
So I ended up going with the male '11 spider from Rockstar Reptile and, since they were only $25 bucks, a normal female. As I had already contacted them before about buying both of their leftover '11 females but this time only requested one they offered to throw in the second for free and no extra shipping which I thought was nice! So now I'm getting two female normals and one male spider pictured below:

Because they're in Washington state and want to ensure their safe arrival, they want to feed them one more time before they ship it out on Monday of next week. They didn't want to risk something going wrong with a Friday delivery so we agreed on a Tuesday delivery.
Their names will be Lucifer, Lilith and Ruby (any Supernatural fans out there? lol)
yay!

I always buy hatchlings! You get a glimpse of what their babies are going to look like :D.

Not to be harsh but i would see how you do keeping these 3 bps before you add a bunch more. Im not trying to be a downer but ive seen people buy 15 snakes all at once with big hopes of breeding and then realizing that they dont have the time to care for all the animals properly.
Thank you! I totally understand what you mean. Luckily I've got a very good work schedule that lets me off at 3pm everyday so I know I can take care of the three I ordered. The ones I plan to get in the future will definitely not be brought into a home that doesn't have time for them if I think that might be the case. I owe it to the little ones to give them a good home in which they are well taken care of. At some point I'll have to put together a rack system though so that'll come once I've got about six. Fear not n_n
