Hey all...My name is Tony, I am from Iowa. Just got a new friend 2 days ago..a 4 foot ( a little over) Ball Python, and a beauty too. Im happy I found him, the previous owner had no thermometer, or under tank heater for night use, and only a 100 Watt basking lamp in his 75 gallon enclosure. I went out and got a new digital timer, UTH, and a 150 W night glow basking lamp for 24 hour use. I still need to get a good thermometer, thermostat, and some nice cage furnishings including a bigger hide...he likes to hide under his water bowl, lol.
This is my first Ball Python, I have been wanting one for a very long time and have been reading care sheets, and going through many, many web sites soaking up all the info I can. He seems to be pretty happy, and very active. I love him already...his name is Tango.
I also have a really cute 6 month old female Crested Gecko named Pebbles, she is very spoiled. She is a little hyper though and dont care to be handled to much, I have to put my cat in the bedroom when I take her out because she will take a flying leap and try to run off.
