How to rehome your Ball Python in an emergency?

[MisssMariee]

So, a month or two ago, I came up with a major problem at home. I ended up having to re home my two corn snakes in the space of two days. (Long story short, I got kicked out of my house because my snake had mites and my mother believed they'd infect her cats even though I argued otherwise and showed proof. Either way, I had to rehome them. I talked her into letting me keep Manda Belle). For the time being, I am allowed to keep my baby female ball python, Manda Belle. Who knows if that will change though, so I'm curious what to do in case I have to re-home her quickly? I mean, do you guys have any ideas? I ended up taking the two corns to my local pet shop who I know takes good care of their reptiles and did find good homes for them. I'd rather not have to do that with Manda if it comes down to it, which I'm hoping it won't, so I'm curious if anyone else has any tips or tricks? Thanks!

Depending on where you live some towns have reptile rescues. Otherwise you could try and rehome her with someone on here...

Look for reptile clubs, rescues, and other similar groups in your area. You can also reach out on here - there are TONS of members, there is likely to be someone in your area who can help you out.

Join a reptile group for your locality on FB and see who has BP's, usually it's not hard to find someone willing to take in a free healthy female. Just make sure she's mite-free.
