Thank you for the quick replies!!!

Regarding the linked cages i am almost positive those are the cages that the local exotic reptile store sells. When i went to visit the store they had like TONS of tubs with all sorts of ball pythons. I was also offered a snake to have as a pet that had a kink in his back. It was said it was a 1200 dollar snake but wanted to be sold to a person that had no intention on breeding. The snake was eating healthy and showed no signs of pain. Although this would be a great deal i am looking to by a hatching so i can experience everything, and grow attached to the snake.

One question is do you use under the tank heaters for these type of enclosures? substrate? Looks so mini i feel like it will be hard to fit everything inside the cage! but i also have been learning that Ball pythons are shy (aka love to be in small places.)

This is a learning experience though i am just so excited to get a snake and want to be well prepared! Still have to decide on a morph though might just get a Regular BP.
