    I want another!!!!!

    So I have had a regular bp since october. I love it. So I want another, But a diferent morph. Does anyone have some favorite morphs that aren't to much? I really like albinos! And also any good breeders near by? Or any at all? I am in southern ut. What are some good racks? And how are racks heated? Sorry for so many questions.
    Thank you
    Christian

    For albinos your looking to spend $400+
    If you want something cheaper maybe go with a pastel, spider, pinstripe etc.
    You can do some searching faunaclassifieds.com and see if you find any morphs you like.
    If you will only have the two snakes you don't really need a rack. But most racks are heated by uth called flexwatt heat tape, controlled by a thermostat.

    Go to worldofballpythons.com
    They have a lot of information and advice for beginning the addiction. Ha
    Also, pastels are probably your best starting morph, you can get a male for as low as $70 bucks, maybe lower. I've taken a new interest to the black pastels, hoping to produce a few black pewters next year

    This is a Black Pastel, she was hanging out with my albino haha

    This.

    Here's a list of morphs that are out there:
    http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/

    I'd keep an eye out for the basic morphs/base morphs seeing as you have a budget such as that.

    Also, I'd recommend racks to those who have 4+ snakes at the least, otherwise it doesn't seem very useful. Not sure about the breeders in that area, but check out some of these:
    http://www.bhbreptiles.com/
    www.jkobylkareptiles.com/
    davegreenreptiles.com/

    There are many more, and quite a few of the users here are also really nice breeders

    Good luck hunting for one!

    I wouldn't, aquariums are big, bulky, and don't really give your snake any privacy. I went to walmart and bought a few containers the 28q.

    The hides give them privacy.

    You can buy another tank if that's what you prefer to use.
    If you have two bps then two tanks isn't so bad. If you plan on getting more than that you may want to build a small rack in the future.
    Most people who have multiple bps have their snakes in rubbermaid tubs for convenience.

    Re: I want another!!!!!

    this really makes me want all of them!!! But i would really like to see them in person vs buying online. Does anyone know my options there? any snake expos happening in vegas or salt lake area?
    is going to pet stores really a bad idea?
    i bought my BP at petco and she is a sweet heart. i couldnt ask for a better snake.

    I think next show in vegas is early september but i could easily be wrong. If you want to learn about morphs theres many videos on youtube.

    JKR Reptiles was mentioned above, when i was first looking for information i found his youtube channel. He has a great deal of videos with good info. He has a playlist called Morphs 101. It doesnt have them all but im sure you can find many more vids off those.
