The others above have given great advice, all I have to add is read lots of information and if you have any direct questions feel free to ask. Many of the general husbandry information if found on the care sheets above.

BPs are very rewarding pets. They are very cute, and I really enjoy my girl. A little bit of research can make taking care of a snake very easy . To get used to snakes, i reccomend getting close to a few before you make your purchase. It important to remember that a healthy ball can live 30+ years so be sure you can care for him or her for a good long time

Have fun, and if you decide a ball is for you I look forward to seeing you around
