The best thing about owning BPs is ...
Apologies if a thread like this has been done before, but I'm a noob.
What's your favorite thing about owning a ball python? For me, it's his laid-back nature, docility, curiosity, and "friendliness." Also, I love the shape of his funny little head, the way he feels in my hands, and watching him eat (which I thought I'd hate).

Re: The best thing about owning BPs is ...
I've owned snakes on and off since I was a teen (mainly BPs) but even though I know how its done, I'm always fascinated how snakes move. I stare at my boys every time I see them move in the tank. LOL.. As for BP's specifically, I just think they have a special kind of cuteness.

EVERYTHING. I dont think there is anything i dont like about ball pythons (maybe just the hunger strikes). Every time i look at my BPs i get happy. Its just the perfect snake for me.

I like how easy they are to care for as well as the fact that they don't get enormous. Plus I just think they're cute.

Re: The best thing about owning BPs is ...
Favorite thing? Watching them eat. It still amazes me how their little necks stretch, and I LOVE watching that yawn they do after eating. It is so cool how their mouth moves around back into place. Simply fascinating. And best thing about owning reptiles in general? Watching the look of shock on people's faces when they come into my house for the first time and see the huge burmese python enclosures taking up what used to be my dinning room! Then them seeing the reptiles in every room of the house.

Besides being amazing creatures that are docile, my favorite part about owning them is how therapeutic they are. Watching and handling them always clams me down and puts me in a great mood.

Their designs, patterns, and adaptations. I also love that they're kind of private like my tattoos-
Unless I tell someone I have them, they'd never know/guess that I did.
