The main size difference between a blood and a ball is thickness which equals weight. I think a lot of unfounded rumors exist about them that turns people off of them as a pet. If I would have known more when we started out we may have a lot more bloods than we do. Granted 30 lbs of snake may sound intimidating, but when you get them as a baby you have a chance to grow your confidence while they grow in size. Our babies were 145 grams and 245 grams when they first came in and 6 months old.

Not that I have anything against balls as we have 28 and plan on many more additions to come. I just think when getting any animal you need to make sure it is what you want and not be settling for something you are OK with.
