Hey
Hi I'm new here so it would be nice if people could help me out on this website because it's kinda confusing for me. I live in the northwest and it pretty humid here and I was wondering if I really need to mist a tank to keep a good humidity for ball pythons. I have a million questions about snakes and would love to hear from you guys.
Also I'm wondering if anyone has information on Burmballs or Superballs. Thanks

Welcome. For any husbandry or feeding questions, it is best to list your temps, tank size, type of substrate, % of humidity, number of hides and where, and confirm if your heat mat is on a thermostat. So do you know what % is your humidity at?
Sorry, I am not familiar with morphs to help you out there.

Re: Hey
I do not have the money to afford a BP right now but I am close. I am just asking questions in preparation as I like to be cautious.
Burmballs and Superballs are hybrid snakes and I am interested in getting one.

Morph Market has/had some normals for $20 the other day.

Hello, welcome to the forum.
It's important to have your enclosure and all your equipment bought, set up and dialed in before bringing your snake home.
Do you already have your equipment?
Enclosure, heating equipment, thermostats, temp gun, substrate, hides, water bowl, etc...??
Not knowing your setup it's hard to tell if you'll need to mist daily, weekly, or at all. There's no one cookie cutter answer due to the high number of variables that could affect your personal setup.
Lastly, it's extremely important to have some money stashed away for a vet bill. You never know when something can happen. Part of responsible pet ownership includes being able to afford a vet visit when needed.
I personally don't like hybrid snakes, so I've never priced them out, but due to their rarity I would guess they aren't cheap.

I’m not 100% on this but I don’t think burmballs are easily obtainable for a brand new reptile owner.

Re: Hey
Welcome. Read and educate yourself on all the species out there, not just balls. You might find something out there that fits you and what you are looking for specifically. Then it is time to get the correct setup up and running. Also educate yourself on health issues related to what species or morph you are looking at. Find a local exotics vet incase you need them and put money back for an unplanned vet visit (they do happen). Then start shopping for an animal. Normal BPs can be purchased or obtained for less than $20 most of the time. Be in it for the long haul! 20 to 35 years of loving your animal. Price feeders for baby all the way to adult.
