First Ball Python

Hello everyone! First time poster long time lurker here. Finally brought home my first (and probably not last) ball python and wanted to share a quick picture I snapped before moving him into his new enclosure.

His name is Apollo, he's currently at 400grams, and I believe that he is a Low White Piebald. I feel like I got a pretty good deal on him, only paid about 300 CAD.

I will probably have a few questions in the coming days and just wanted to say thanks ahead of time for anyone who takes the time to answer.

Thanks all!

Welcome to the forum Bat. :)

Very nice Pied!

Can't go wrong with a pied!! I like how his pattern changes right in the middle.

Very nice !!

O. M. G. I looove your pied, what a great choice! Enjoy your new pet =)

Thanks guys! Yes he does have some interesting things going on with his pattern. Can't wait until he's settled in and I can start handling him. He seemed pretty chill for the few moments I did hold him while transferring him into his enclosure.

Welcome and congratulations, he is beautiful! I like the low-white pieds too, I love their crazy mottled patterns :)

I'm loving his totally white tipped tail, great looking snake and congrats on your first my friend! :sweeet:

Welcome and wow that's a Beautiful First Ball Python ......

Nice! I like how the front half almost has alien heads and the back half almost looks pastel.

Very cool looking

Couple more photos I managed to take in some slightly more natural lighting when I cleaned out the massive poop he left me. Hopefully he keeps the orange into adulthood. His colours remind me of Halloween. :P

Aww man I really love my normal ball but I am totally jealous of Apollo's colouring, he is just beyond handsome. :bow: Crazy beautiful!! He looks like a lil chunky boy :oops:
