    New to ball pythons

    Iooking into getting myself a ball soonish, probably after the spring hatch. I own a corn already so I know the basics of care. I was wondering if there was much difference in care. So far I've only seen that the temperaure needs to be slightly warmer, around 85 and the humidity needs to be higher around 55%. Is there anything else that I'm missing the makes ball care different then corn care? Thanks for any advice

    Your temperatures seem just a little bit off to me. I like to keep my warm side 89-92 and cool side at 80-83. I also like to keep my humidity up around 60%. Good luck with your new ball!

    I also used this care sheet for my bp: http://www.royalconstrictordesigns.c...hon-care-sheet

    I keep my ball pythons at a constant 85 with no hot spot.

    different strokes for different folks!
