Do you pet your bp?

I pet most of my balls all the time. The ones that freak out even when i go to check their weight, i pretty much leave alone. The others dont seem to mind tho....i even kiss them too. Cuz i luv em.

I sure do. As we all know bps love having their heads touched.

I like to stroke down their sides gently and watch them get tickly too.

This is the best out of context quote i've had in awhile.

I've never smooched my balls. Rob has asked to smooch mine but I don't want him getting salmonella or anything...

Oh man, I'll go against the grain here and say I baby talk to my animals and it's borderline ridiculous. If I open a tub, it's followed by "Good morning my beautiful prince/princess, you look so beautiful today ohmygoodness, I can't believe what a pretty prince/princess you are. I think I love you now more than I did before just because youlooksocutetodayyesyoudo. Want to come out and see mummy? Ohyesyoudo and mummy wants to see you too, you beautiful boy/girl you "

So I think it also goes without saying that I pet them

I'm right there with you.

My husband thinks its strange when I baby talk to them. Like "oh, look at my pretty little melmers come to say hi". Yes, I pet my balls. :p

Use the straight concentrate, no watering it down.

I pet/touch/stroke my ball pythons regularly. They pretty much all enjoy it. I give soothing rubs/scratches on the back and sides, and I love to tickle their bellies and make them squirm like a little kid. I swear sometimes they would giggle if they could.

My especial favorites get more mommy time than some of the others, but everybody gets mommy time when they aren't in blue and cranky, or have just eaten. My biggest female Akashi, she's my special angel. She loves to come out and see me. She climbs up and down my arms and back and shoulders until she gets comfortable, then she just lays around my neck and shoulders. She'll stay there for hours if I let her.

Yes, I talk baby talk to my ball pythons, why wouldn't I? Even though they all have names, they all have "pet names" as well. I tell them good morning and good night, and they regularly get kisses as well. I'm a lot more afraid of getting salmonella from bad produce than I am from my snakes. My especial favorites also get nibbles sometimes. Akashi loves getting mommy nibbles. I nibble by pulling my lips tight over my teeth and then kind of "gumming" along her back or side. She also gives me kisses, and I mean she comes right up to my face, looks straight at me, then bumps her nose against my mouth then flicks her tongue at my lips. Nago my het pied gives me kisses in the same way.

Several of mine whisper sweet nothings in my ear. That really tickles. I talk baby talk to mine a lot when it's feeding day. "Wassum hungry baby? Wassum hungry? You want a wattie hon? Hmm, do you want a wattie? Yes you do, you wants a wattie! You better get it! You better get that wattie before it gets away! That's my sugarpea! That's my good baby, you gottum wattie!" Stuff like that. My husband frequently asks me if I am okay during these performances, but the babies all understand what I say so I just tell him to go away.

Just one of the hidden gems that can be found on a forum for pythons of the ball variety.
