Just got a ball python...first time. I have experience with lizards (fat tail geckos, lacertas, anoles, house gecko's, iguana, flat rocks) all my life, so its not too hard for me...I saw this ball, at a petshop for sale, had no idea why it was so cheap (supposedly the breeder was trying to get rid of them) I know i took a chance but now I'm wondering...Do Balls have personalities?
Okay he did a few things that i'm not familiar with, and I guess a few things i did, that i wasn't suppose to do:
I was playing with him the first day, and he didn't seem to mind,
He even got comfortable that I can pet his head...
He seems to want to be out of the tank at all times and I have not seen him roll into a ball yet...
As he's hanging around on my bed he's on my belly and does this cobra position, and he just starts looking around...
And oddly he ate yesterday...(and took a sip of water!)(which i also handled him today...i know i know, but he's like my little puppy)
He seldom gets frightened and I kinda get the feeling he likes to be petted
Any advice as to why he's acting like a dog? As I see it ofcourse...
