    Do you have any tips or advice for a potential first time keeper? I'm trying to do as much research as I can, as I am well aware that it's a different story compared to keeping my ball python and boa. I am swaying more towards getting a dwarf burm if possible.
    Thank you haha I plan on stopping when I'm the next Bob Clark . And all I can suggest is do as much research as you can think about the 2 species of snakes you want to buy I wouldn't keep numerous different animals as there care needs will be different making it harder to properly care for them all unless you are around all the time to keep a eye on temps and humidity. If I was yourself I would go with boas and burms buy them as baby's and watch them grow up slowly feed them once every 7-8 days appropriate sized meals don't try growing them fast just buy 1 at first and see if having a bigger snake is for you . I bought my first burm in 2012 a normal female and i dont buy another untill late 2013 because I didn't want to be stuck with loads of big snakes that I couldn't care for or was scared of . And the dwarf burms unless you buy from a reputable breeder most dwarfs end up hitting near enough normal size anyway. You have to be careful what your buying I suggest doing abit of research regarding Burmese pythons and going with one of them they are relatively easy to care for hot side 90-93f ambient 80-85 maybe a little higher can drop to mid 70s at night hook tap train for baby's the only problem you may have is caging as they require bigger cage as adults. Or even find yourself a nice boa they can be nippy as baby's but not all ways and just grow her nicly and see if a bigger species of snakes is for you if you need any information what so ever feel free to message me via private pm but i am no reptile expert just a guy who loves Burmese pythons haha
