    New ball python owner

    Hey guys, just got my first Ball about 6 days ago. It's been a busy week learning the habits and todo's or my python. I'm a first time owner so I appreciate any advice from you guys. I'm already hooked and looking forward to learning more about these animals and growing my collection.

    Re: New ball python owner

    What kind of enclosure and set-up are you keeping your new friend in? That will be the first thing to make sure is correct to avoid some of the problems in the future.

    You will also find that we like to see pics of everything. Snakes, enclosures, bites, monster poo that you swear could not have come from such a small animal...

    to the forum. Learn everything you can, and share your experiences, and whether if something you tried did or did not work. It just helps us all out...
