So iv been peekin around the forum for past few days after I held a baby ball python. You guys do seem to know your stuff so thought id join. First off I do not own a Ball Python....yet i fell in love with the baby female I held, and as much as I wanted to take her home then and there I want to do a lot of research before I do so I can provide her with the best home possible. So here I am, any words of advice on ownership, how big of a tank/terrarium should I purchase (im also great with my hands so advice on building one would be cool too) what materials do they like/avoid and well just looking to learn more about the species and ownership and responsabilities that come with them. Also if you can reccomend some good reads id more than gladly look into them. Iv been reading about the basics of them online/forums for the past few days but without asking theres only so much you can learn right! So anywho heres where I turn it over to you guys oh and im from the s. side burbs in chicago so also any reptile breeders/shops reccomendations would be appreaciated. Thanks for reading! And thanks for responding!
