    New to the site. Just wanted to say hi.

    Hi, I would just like to introduce myself to this everyone. I have been browsing this site for months and finally set up an account. I'm from Arizona so I have had many experiences with snakes as a child. I have always been fascinated with these amazing creatures. I fell in love with ball pythons because of all the different morphs and possibilities. I have always loved genetics so breeding is a very exciting step for me. I'm still learning but it feels like I have found another life long passion.

    I am somewhat new to the trade. I have had my original first snake for the past five years trying find out what works for me and trying to learn everything that I can about these amazing creatures. Over the past year I have went from one ball python to four. I know it doesn't seem like much but it is an addiction for me.

    I have one baby male lemon pastel, one baby female cinnamon. One breeder ready female yellow belly, and one breeder ready male normal.

    I hate to ask such a nub question. (New to the site but I love it already. So much wisdom here.) What does the 1.0 numbers mean before the listed snake in some peoples sig?

    Thank you for the advice. If it was up to me I would already have 20 snakes. Luckily my girlfriend won't let that happen. I also have 2 cats and a dog so it is a good thing I'm not getting ahead of myself.

    I live in north phx. Yeah this is a huge state for ball python owners and snakes in general. Its a good and a bad thing. The market is saturated with lots of sketchy snake dealers out here. Lots of reputable breeders out here though. You just have to know where to look.


    Sorry guys don't have means to post pics yet. Soon though!
