Oops... Third ball python!

Six months ago I had none. Yesterday I picked up my third... nobody warned me about how addictive they are 😂
So meet this lil lady, a leopard pastel. Although to me I’m not so sure she has any pastel?

Wow... what a beauty. The patterns and the contrast are just stunning!

Looks like a nice leopard pastel! :)

Congrats! Make sure you're following proper quarantine procedures.

Thanks guys,
will take better photos in a week or so once she’s settled in and fed 👍

Yes Paddy, these little noodles are very beautiful and addictive. And dont let anyone tell you that you are going overboard with the amount of snakes you have or will get in the future.. If you are providing for them as they need then who has the right to say you are going overboard?

Only you know what you can handle and everyone else can mind their own business. Besides, there really isnt that many on us on here that just have one loney snake! So you are good to go my friend...:rockon:

I don't want to be a pest by repeating myself, but it's extremely important...
Are you following proper quarantine practices???

I hear ya. As long as things are done right and the animals are well cared for I say get as many as each individual wants and can properly care for.

For sure! Great point about the quarantine and i‘m on it... separate tongs, separate rooms... and I use antibacterial gel religiously between interactions... etc so all good I think.

And thanks for all your comments guys!

A small update on this gal.
Fed her for the first time yesterday :)

My first ate on day one,
My second one day 7 ( didn’t try to feed earlier)
and then this girl took ten days before being interested.

I can’t wait to hold her to check her out properly and take some better photos, but I know the best thing to do is to leave her for another few meals?

WHAT YOUR THIRD ONE ALREADY? :D NEXT THING YOU WILL BE TELLING US IS THAT YOU PURCHASED 2 RETICS, AND ANNACONDA AND A KING COBRA!:D


Kidding. Gratz on the new girl. Wish you well as you progress.


I am not addicted...… I am enthusiastic. :rolleyes::O:D:cool:

Haha I know! It’s a bit crazy. I’m sure I’m not the first to get excited!

I’ve decided no more though until these three are fully grown.

I really want to try my hand at breeding, and I think the three I have could give some really nice potential offspring... in a few years time!

She is beautiful! I see blushing on her head so pastel.

I LOVE her contrast! Stunning!

Congrats on the more than one club! Lol

Just curious what you mean by quarantine. I certainly wouldn't house two bp's together. Do you mean keep the new one in a different room? Please forgive my ignorance, I got my first one yesterday.

Yeah sure...we hear that quite often, actually. :rofl: We'll see? ;)

Congrats!! And....holy crap she’s beautiful! I’m actually going to an expo. next month in hopes of picking up my #2. Have only had #1 for 3 months. It’s definitely a sickness but I’m okay with it. [emoji51]

Looking forward to more pics! She’s amazing.
