Taming or re-taming adult BPs

Ball pythons don't need to be played with or get daily sunshine.

It sounds more like he's feeling stressed out. Get the guy set up properly and leave him alone for a week to allow him time to decompress.

Why didn't you take the snake? He is anger with you.

I agree with Fireblade. Get it back on a regular feeding schedule and get his tank thoroughly cleaned. After a few feedings start trying to handle him. Once he is fed and in a clean cage his mood should improve.

You know bp don't need sunlight?

I couldn't take him because I was told I wasn't aloud to and my mothers boyfriend fought about how it was "his cage" so I couldn't touch it. My mother backed him up, don't know why she she hates snakes, I was promised that he would be taken care of. Couple months down the road I heard he was put in jail and I came back to make sure everyone was ok and found him neglected. And I did not know that. I was always told the uv rays were good for them. He seemed to love going outside though, so as long as he's happy.

It wasn't so much as play. More of the kids would come over and pet him, he'd lay in the grass and the kids would be with him. He just liked being outside so I always took him.
