    I was looking at those too, and like the look of them. What size would an adult ball python require? I might go ahead and order some of those too.
    Why keep a snake? Why keep any animal? Because you enjoy the animal, find something beautiful and fascinating about it, and it fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

    How much does your ball weigh? I would most likely go with the large or extra large depending on the size of the snake. Important thing when it comes to hides is your balls feel secure, try and make sure that ball when inside he/she touches all four sides.

    Don't have a ball python yet, just looking to the future and what I might expect. Thank you for the information!

    X3. When you go to his website he has descriptions of what size each is good for.

    I like square ones personally. Depending on size, you could go with a small cat litter pan. The reason I like square is an offset entrance so they can really "hide".

    I have some from Exo-Terra, they are made of fibreglass and then coated & painted, they had little sharp points all over the inside just used sand paper and sanded it down, all smooth now!
