    Talking Just got first ball python

    So I just got my first ball python from BHB they were really nice and helpful, kinda disappointed they didn't provide much information inside the box like linage and when he was born. He does however look good other then I think he is going into shed.

    Took the little guy a while to get into a hide and he yawned and took a drink as soon as he got into his new tub. Kinda upset because as soon as I got him the humidity starting acting all weird had to put moss and spray a lot =/

    Anyway I will post pictures as soon as he settles in thanks for reading !

    What Do You Mean By Acting Weird And If He Did Yawn It Could Be A RI Or He Tried To Adjust His Jaw.

    Congrats!
    Wouldn't the breeder be able to send you all of that information though? I'm just curious, I wouldn't know because I have yet to purchase from a breeder.

    I didn't say he was acting weird, I said its weird BHB doesn't give information on their snakes they sell inside the box. I did find the yawn strange but he is around 5 months old and it was a small yawn. Not too worried.

    Re: Just got first ball python

    I was concerned about mine yawning (does it every once in a while) but I researched around and many breeders and seasoned keepers say they have BPs who have always yawned, doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong.
