    Well I hadn't heard of them before but after a quick Google search I found this

    http://www.reptilesmagazine.com/Snak...s-and-Secrets/

    It's pretty extensive on their care and history and such, very intersting. Don't know if you've already seen it but thought I'd share Also Snakes at Sunset had an ad for one (Out of Stock now apparently) that was $449

    Thanks for the link no I haven't seen it I didn't do much Google searching on them because most of the snake info I find on google is kinda off and so much conflicting info. I read the whole thing and according to that site a lot of the typical Bp care info applies to them as well. Except the part about dry shedding lol it didn't say anything about humidity though which confuses me.

    It just said they need low humidity I believe, nothing specific though. Yeah their care seems to be pretty similar to ball pythons other then their temps need to be slight lower, they need low humidity and all their stuff has to be ancored lol

    From what I’ve seen they’re considered desert so yes low humidity , decent heat and they will take the water U spray on them daily for water intake

    Mine are semi active at night lol but that is probably just cuz they are young. Azura likes to climb on things and bask, and as previously mentioned knock everything down along the way! And Meeko, he doesn't really like to climb or anything like that but he's weirdly inquisitive for a ball python. When I sit at my desk next to his tank he almost always comes over and just watches what I'm doing and he always pops his little head out of the hide when I come into the room XD
