Welcome to the site!
A ball python is a ball python. Care is the same no matter what the color/pattern.
I suggest you check out these 2 threads if you haven't already, they cover the basics on care and cage heating:

Cage Heating: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...t-Thermometers
I use professionally made reptile cages made by a company called Animal plastics. They aren't cheap, but you get what you pay for and the cage will last the entire life of the snake. I would recommend their T8 enclosure. The T8 can house 1 or 2 snakes (2 using an optional divider)
