Welcome!!!! This is a great site and has very friendly people, and they have been a lot of help to my husband and myself. We are first time snake owners and have had our normal male ball python (Dax) for a month now. So far everything is good. So, how big and how old and what sex are your snake?

Welcome to the good side :gj:

Thank you, thank you! Wow what a welcome!! This site seems like like one of the nicest!
Havent seen to much bickering going on in posts which is why i was pointed in this direction by jglass38. We got involved in a post from, hell-o all!!
Well Im not sure what standard package my Ball has, going to have him sexed eventually. Sometimes he is refered to as a guy and sometimes a girl and sometimes I just use his name, Davu! Meaning "The begining". It is some sort of african but i have no idea what tribe or from what part of the country. He is my first and i doubt my only. He wieghs right close to 500g and is 30 inches long. As far as age not to sure on that either! From what i was told about 6 months but i think he is a lil older maybe then 6 months. 6-9 sounds good as one of the other members had said in my post about age.
I kind of think of him as a rescue. Some 16 year old kid had him, lost interest and the dad wanted to get rid of him so he sold Davu and everything else for 50 bucks. I really wanted to get one from a breeder but could not pass up on the price. Temps were WAY to hot when i got him, practically no humidity and he only had one hide. Had a dented eye cap when i picked him up and a lil scar between his nostrals. Im guessing the scar was from a feeding acident as he was being feed live mice or maybe he tried to escape or something im not real sure. Other then that he was well feed, active, and never once has he balled himself up or showed any type of aggression! :) Awesome snake! Right after i got him home, humidity was raised, eye looked better within 30 minutes, He now has 2 hides, temps have been regulated and he is living a much better life! :)
Thanks again all and sorry for the long post!!

Hope you enjoy your time on the forum and please feel free to just jump right on in with pics, questions, comments, concerns, whatever strikes your fancy.

Hahaha...Well in that case the girl is kind of a twit. She has multiple hatchlings (that haven't eaten yet), kept together in a glass tank on crushed walnut bedding with improper temps and wonders why they won't eat. That and the fact that she only bought the hatchlings as a "test" to see if she would be ready when her gravid female lays.

Bahah..Just typing that I felt brain cells dying off.

Glad you made it over here, where for the most part we are twit free

Yea i was definitly disturbed by her aswell! Guess thats the kinda crap we all have to put up with from time to time!! Im just really sick of all the young know it all who ask for advice and then tell you that your the one that is wrong!! Nothing against young people just the ones that are all argumentative and cant take it when there called out!! Errrr!!

No doubt!

Does this site have a chat room??

We do, but we only open it from time to time. Usually on a Friday or Saturday evening. We always announce it ahead of time so folks can plan on being there. Haven't done one lately, so maybe this weekend we'll bat our eyes at Smulkin and get him to fire it up again?

A lot of us us AIM as well. I think there's a thread on it somewhere here where folks listed their AIM names (mine is frankykeno just like here)....dang why can't I find that thread...I swear when my back is this sore, my brain fries in the process!

Cool. So if i put my yahoo on my profile people will be able to message me that way if they wish?

Hi,


Nice to hear from someone else here in Colorado. The people on this site are very nice, and helpful. I have learned a lot just since joining, and I think my snakes are much better off because of the people here.

Welcome!!!!
:welcome:


Neil

You do any herping here in CO?? Im trying to find some places to go this summer!!

Well, only down the bike trails and such. Lots of garter snakes, bull snakes, and an occasional rattler. We went to Garden of the Gods last spring and saw tons of different kinds of lizards. Also there is a small state park south of Franktown, I can't remember the name, but we saw lots of reptiles there.

We take a trip to Arkansas every summer, and that is a herping fiesta!!!

My oldest daughter has really started to get interested, so I am sure we will be doing a lot more of this summer, just need to find some more good places to go.

Neil

Awesome! Yea i think im going to make a trip to garden of the gods this summer myself to try and find some reps. Im there all the time but usually just out and about with the kids and the dog! If you find some good places let me know or if your ever down in these parts maybe we could hook up or something! I was thinking about trying out east aswell!

Sounds good, we are usually down your way a few times during the summer. It makes for a nice "get-away" day. The kids would love to do something like that.

I will post if I hear of any good spots or if we come acress something really
interesting.

Neil

Cool cool, same here!

I agree, welcome Davu... And I absolutely love that pith helmet pic!

Thanks a bunch! Not exactly sure what a pith helmet is tho!! lol I just call it a safari hat. Wendy is the photographer in the family so Ill make sure to pass on the good word!! :)
