    First ball python. Eclipse

    Recently purchased a new Butter Pastel from Dynasty Reptiles. Say hello to Eclipse. Ses approximately 20" and i feel like I weighed her wrong since I got 150 grams so may need to check the scale I have. I'll admit I was timid holding her the first time but she's sweet enough I am getting used to her more each time. Have had her over 3 weeks and she's been eating like a champ each week with lil fuss. (7 days for the feeding). Appreciate the topics and help from this site already so I thought I'd jump in.

    Cute noodle!
    How did you like your experience with dynasty reptiles? I'm considering ordering from them.

    First ball python. Eclipse

    Nice looker and seems to have lovely set up as well . The substrate really enhances the colours of the Royal ( looks like Orchid bark ) .

    I'd consider even more fake plants and even a few nice looking branches . It will look amazing , make it feel even more secure and Royals love climbing ( evenings) !

    I wasn't given a date of birth but I think she was born in August since that's when she was first posted for adoption

    They were great to work with. I'd highly recommend them, I purchased her out of town and they held her for me and worked with shipping a few days later. Also should add they are based out of Florida and I'm in Michigan and they overnighted took good care of her.

    Thank you, It's the Zoo med Repta Bark and thank you for the suggestions, I've added one branch (well a stick) for her but she tends to knock everything over so I'm working in getting them secure so they don't fall as easily. Also I'm having a hard time finding decent fake plants to add, but I'm still looking and finding some good husbandry for her.

    I usually get fake plants and foliage from one of the many dollar shops .... branches can be hot glued into place or if it's a wooden viv , often you can put screws through the side and into the ends of the branches ..

    Thanks, I was thinking of doing that. No chance of them being hazardous to her right?
