I'm going to be buying my first snake from a reptile expo soon. I'm getting a ball python, but I need some tips on picking a healthy snakes. I know to check for mites, leftover shed, and aggressiveness, but that's about all I know. Also, could you give me some tips on choosing a good vendor/breeder to buy from?
It's going to be a 3-4 hour drive back home with the snake. Will that be safe? Any info on traveling with snakes?
