Ball pythons, why do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
- They're pythons. Pythons are dangerous and therefore sexy and cool. They may not be the biggest python, but they're more impressive than skinny old colubrids.
- They're manageable. They're not too big or too fast or too defensive to be handled by anybody, even kids.
- They're beautiful. They come in a dizzying array of colors and patterns. No matter your taste, you'll find one that'll take your breath away. They're cute too. Look no further than Albert's latest clutch. And they keep those baby faces into adulthood.
- They're affordable. If a snake fits in your budget, than a ball python fits in your budget.
Add all that up and you've got just about the perfect pet snake. That's the allure with BPs.
