    Hi, new here!

    Hi everyone! My name is Iris, I'm a graduate student looking to get my first ball python. Actually, I shared one with a friend - we said we had "joint custody" - a looonng time ago, when we were in middle school. But since that was so long ago and we shared a lot of the duties, I don't actually remember a lot of the details. I definitely feel like a beginner right now so I'm ready to learn!

    About a year ago I had my heart set on getting a ball python but got placed into a "no pets allowed" apartment... I was so disappointed. But now I'm about to move again and will be allowed to have a pet so I'm getting back into the swing of things and refreshing my memory for caring for the snake! It also means I've had a lot of prep time to think about everything too I hope I make a good owner. I'm sure I'll be back here with lots of questions.

    Welcome to the site!

    There are a ton of people here who know all about ball pythons, and I bet a high percentage of them breed these awesome snakes.

    If you have any questions, just ask. The care sheet here is wonderful, so I suggest reading that. Much of the information online is incorrect, but here is definitely a good place.

    I hope you turn out to be a good owner, too!
