I got my first ball python late 1995. A little normal female. My first pet. Definitely didn't have the best set-up or record keeping. She only lived around 8 years. I didn't get any more ball pythons up until November of last year. I happened to go on the ball python section on fauna....I saw the most beautiful spider and it was instant love. I HAD to have him. A year later and almost 40 bps, tons of rats, lots of cleaning/work later...here I am. And I absolutely do not see myself going any time soon. I'm here to stay.
I know I have learned a TON since my first bp. And a lot of the thanks for that have to go to this site.
