Getting a BP

[Dracoluna]

I wish I had the gift of reading how a snake is feeling. I am going to have to rely on that, when buying a BP. However, if things go wrong, I have a really smart dad. I'm not too worried, I'm just trying to become more knowledgeable in the subject.

You'll learn it once you get one. I didn't know it either until I dealt with my corns for awhile and had people around me showing me what to look for. It's great that you're trying to learn before getting the animal. As long as you're constantly open to learning, you'll be a great owner.
In case no one has warned you yet though, snakes are addictive. You can't own just one.
