Wish me luck?
A friend on another forum can't properly care for her normal ball python, Dexter. She doesn't have the time, the proper equipment, can't get him to eat, and the ball python has a head issue (he cut himself on a tree branch), enclosure aggression, won't eat, and has the head issue.
Anyway, I asked her if I could take him in. I have a male ball python, Ozzy, myself, and she thinks he is doing great (which he is ). She thinks that Dexter will do great with me, and feels comfortable with housing Dexter with me, and is including all of the supplies for free. All I have to do is pay shipping.
He is about four feel long, under-weight, has a cut, and has some issues, but hopefully I can help. I am just hoping that my mother will agree to letting me keep him, and give him a forever home where he will eventually eat, and get his head healed up, and will hopefully become a sweet snake.
He is a rescue off of CraigsList (don't even get me started >:/), where Ozzy was a rescue, too. Apparently, Dexter wasn't fed, was in a small aquarium, and his enclosure was filthy. Ozzy had scale rot, mouth rot, an upper RI, under-fed, and I helped him heal, too. Now he is thriving, and is a pig!
Anyways, here is Dexter (a very old picture):

Wish me luck with convincing my mother to add one more snake!

I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

Good luck taking him in and healing him up. I still can't get my mom to allow one bp, she would never let me get two lol.
