If he's active every night, it is because snakes are nocturnal hunters. If he is being fed properly and having the time of his life loafing around his enclosure, he is a happy snake. Don't worry about his sexual maturity, he already reached it when he turned 1, so instincts of breeding are normal for him right now. Since your girlfriend has a male ball python, why don't you get it a pair? Buy a female for her, there's a lot of morphs out there, and who knows how much your girl will be happy to see her little snoot have a new friend. Cheers![]()
