My poor baby...

Honestly Ball Pythons are not good display snakes nor do they want to be handles much. You hardly see them when they are happy. Happy = Hiding with balls. At night they come out of their hides and love to climb. Build them a 1/2" PVC pipe Jungle Gym in the enclosure. Just never use tape and always cap the ends of pipes.
My Burm is the people snake. A lot of people here have Smaller Retics for a snake that is more involved, also Blood Pythons... But Balls like to be left alone.. Just who they are.

This is great. My first attempt at owning a snake and we get an antisocial one. Lol. All because I'm a wimp and have issues feeding live creatures to them. I would say live and learn but that may cost my little guy his health. I really wish the pet store would have been a little more forthcoming about him. They made it sound easy to care for him and never once gave the impression we couldn't take him out and about like we have been doing. The more I learn from all you guys/gals, the more I feel so bad for my baby. I'm beginning to think we aren't the best caregivers for him and I'm afraid we are going to unintentionally do him harm. This sucks. Thank for the advice. I have a lot to think about now as to what's going to best and safest for him.
