    "I have three racks full of balls....but the one in the middle is quite a bit smaller than the other two. That one is reserved for the really big balls.

    Yeah well... When I first got my ball pythons I posted pictures on facebook. Next day at work I asked my coworkers "Hey did you see my balls?"
    Response, "Did I see your balls?" in that unsure/weirded out tone
    Me, "Yeah, my ball pythons!"
    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.

    There was a very interesting conversation on a facebook group about balls and snakes too, especially when I said I was getting snakes from a guy that wasn't my husband....

    Uuuuughhhhhh I wish I had more snakes so more stuff like this came up in conversation for me! This stuff is gold. Lol

    You should have just added to the confusion and tossed in" oh yeah! He's giving me a few baby's to raise and breed!" Lmao

    We call our snakes our "kids" or "children" a lot of the time, so at work:
