Most doctile snakes? I think not.

Hey dude... i think that you and I are on the same thought waves..... I have my baby in a 55 gallon tank..... I had it in the 10 gallon tank (like the caresheets say) and he had no room to roam once it became night time.... I felt so bad to have him cramped up in that little tank... Now he is in the 55 gallon and loves having the room to move about at night. And I am more compfortable that he is growing and building muscles from actually being able to move around. My boyfriend has a three yr old female that does not move around very much (went by the care sheets) and her muscles are actually pretty weak from never working or building them.

Thats exactly what im thinkin, they like to roam at night and i don't wanna hold him down, i mean he's already in captivity how much worse can it get? hahaha

Both of you guys really need to put your desires aside and think about the animal. They prefer the dark tiny spaces rather than the wide open spaces. Many ball pythons will roam their enclosure because they are stressed out. They are trying to find a comfy tight dark space where they can slither into. I really don't think it's wise of you guys who are just starting in the world of ball python keeping to think your doing the right thing for the animal. You have a ton of people here telling you that the way you are doing it is not the right way, all of the people telling you keep many snakes, they also have bred them and have very healthy animals. You guys really need to rethink the way your keeping your BP. It shouldn't matter how it looks to you, The snakes health is more important than your own desires. I started out like you guys, I had my first snake in a big tank and it didn't work out, with the help of all these people here I was able to get my stuff together and now I have more than a couple snakes ans they are all healthy.
