New to BP.net and I was hoping for some feedback from some of you guys.

I have never owned a reptile before but I have wanted a snake since I was a kid. My mom wouldn't have it lol. But I am older now and out on my own and was interested in getting a BP. I have done my research and feel like i'm up for it but I would like to hear what all the owners have to say. Any advice for new guy? Thanks in advance!
