Re: New Snake - What is it? Not BP, right? [pics]

I have only researched Ball Pythons, so I am not sure what he is. First the guy told me he was a Ball Python, and when I got there he said he was a young Burmese.
He is about 3 feet long and slender. He seems active and alert.
Please look at my pictures and tell me what kind of snake he is. Thanks.
P.S. I wasn't expecting to get a snake immediately, so I had to toss together a habitat for him. That's why he has a Kleenex box hide.
Bonre up on your bull snake husbandry, as they have different requirements than ball pythons.

Yeah, it means he saved extra money for a vet trip. I'd get it checked out for parasites, considering its shady origin.
If you ever feel you can't keep him, look into local rescues or a reputable/knowledgeable keeper.

you should also check you local laws. bull snakes are not legal to keep in every state.

You could attempt to trade it for a BP on craigslist.
