Any answers can be as long,short, complex or simple as you like. And if you can, please ask fellow owners to answer too. Any age of experience, number of pythons, age can the questions. And fill free to ask me any questions you have, I will do my best to answer them all.

Questions
  1. How many years (or months) of experience do you have with ball pythons
  2. How many pythons do you own
  3. what type of cage do you keep it in ( bio environmental, paper towel/ newspaper, soil, )
  4. pros and cons of cage
  5. behavior of the snake ( calm, anxieties, violent, always out and about, always hiding, etc)
  6. Personal opinion on the reason why you choose this type of set up
1. Only a couple months. I just got my first Ball Python in may but I've had lots of experience keeping reptiles

2. One, for now

3. He's in a 40 qt Hefty tub. He's on coconut fiber bedding. I try keeping hot spot at 90-94 and ambient around 80. Humidity between 60-70( I learned that I'm the Ball Pythons natural range in Africa the average humidity can shoot into the 80s so I like to keep it at 70) he has two hides

4. Cages are good for viewing animals. They're relatively cheap and readily available. But They're a pain to maintain humidity and heat, and they're heavy and hard to store.

5. Pua is relatively friendly, curious too but likes to hide. He tries to act tough but he's just a goofball

6. I don't have enough room to house a vivarium or tank and tubs are cheap and easy to clean. Also keeping heat and humidity is easy too. Being in college and my living situation is subject to change, I need something I can easily move
