So I got a spider ball python (October) about 3 weeks ago.I bought him on craigslist from a socall breeder.i dont really know if he is.But when i saw the spider i fell in love with the spider pattern.Hes pretty active and eats well. Everytime I wana handle him he slithers away.So i try to holding him back and he turns around as if hes gonna strike at me so i add a lil pressure to hold him from striking.Im afraid im gonna hurt him,but i also don't want to get bit.im afraid of getting bit because if he has parasite, will i get them to?or some kind of disease?Has not been to Vet..So do u guys have any suggestion on how to tame him?
