I am a BP Newb ... I recently received my first BP a few weeks ago (birthday gift from my boyfriend, how romantic ... haha, j/k, it really was sweet, he knew I wanted one .. sort of our 'love fern' if you will *that would be funny if you've seen 'how to lose a guy in 10 days*) ANYWAYS .. got a new little ball python, whom (after about two weeks of debate) have come to name 'Sweet Pea' ... it's a constant learning process, and stumbling onto this sight has been such a blessing .. in just a few hours I've been researching, I've found a lot of answers to my questions. I'm constantly trying to be the best mom I can be.....so any suggestions are MORE than welcome She just had her first shed today (which has been quite messy - it's been coming off piece by piece - and it doesnt look like she's not done yet. I'm debating if I should put her in some water or not (she hissed at me last night when I tried to pick her up (at that point she hadn't started shedding, so I wasn't aware of any signs) so I'm hesitant to touch her right now.

Well, I don't want to write a book ... looking forward to chatting with ya'll.
