Why did you want to get a BP?
Random question, but just wondering.
How did you guys get into snakes, and why did you want one?
I wanted one because they seemed like such amazing creatures and I wanted to be able to observe one and watch one for myself. And also I think they're just cute.
Oh and I also wanted to get one because I hate how some people are afraid of snakes, and I want to show them that snakes aren't that scary and they can actually make great pets.

Mostly because i have always loved snakes and when i saw how bp had puppy faces i just knew that had to be my first snake lol they are too cute not to have one, and i totally agree with you, i love to show people how a snake is not gonna jump and eat them like they might think, especially my little sister, she now loves even my tarantula! Lol

Re: Why did you want to get a BP?
To be honest I didn't... For the longest time when I was younger I wanted to get a bearded dragon, largely because I thought it'd be like owning a miniature dinosaur... I mean, wouldn't that be awesome? Anyway, they never let me because we used to go away quite frequently and we didn't have someone to look after a lizard. Eventually, after asking far too many times, my dad, who is actually afraid of snakes, suggested we compromise and get a ball python instead because they can be left alone. I said okay and have never looked back. I'm honestly glad I ended up with a ball python instead. Ball pythons are awesome!!!

Re: Why did you want to get a BP?
i moved to my own place for the first time at 23 and was incredibly lonely (anxiety, depression, etc.). i worked so much that a cat/dog was out of the question, so i ended up googling pets you can leave alone.
when i was 22, during my last year of college, i held my first snake - a normal female beep - and i fell in love. during my googling i remembered snakes, i found this forum, i learned, i bought Yellow and the rest is history.
in hindsight Yellow was an impulse purchase, but i'm so lucky i found pets and a hobby that i love so much. i try so hard to convince others how wonderful these pets can be. i got lucky on an impulse buy, but i'm so so thankful i found this hobby and the amazing community behind it.

because when I was little, I wanted one. my dad would only let me have a hamster ( snake food), close enough. when I was grown, I spent 22yrs driving trucks, never had time. now im older, and on SSDI, with nothing else to do. I have time, and can do what I want. so, I got one. actually, had a few and one red tail boa. but, got a baby spider ball the other day.
ball pythons are cool. I like how their heads are shaped. unlike corn snakes, and whatever, that look like pugs, with those flat faces.
