Hello, i'm new to having snakes as pets and i decided to get a ball python for a beginer snake I have a 15 gal. tank and a 40 gal. tank, I have everything i need but my Q is this... Does a adult ball python have a better chance of survival than one thats four moths old?

Only if the adult is an established feeder, and the baby is not.

Thank you! Also what type of scenario should i think of when designing the tank?

Just have at least 2 hides, one on each side. They generally don't care what's in the tank as long as they have a place to hide, so you can decorate it anyway you want. I keep mine in tubs so their cages are pretty plain and mine seem content.
