    I agree. If you're just considering a ball python, maybe, you should expand you consideration to species appropriate for that enclosure. There are so many wonderful species (every bit as wonderful as ball pythons) that would be happy in that tank for their entire lives. A Children's python would fit perfectly. I have one and I can say they make wonderful pets. Like Boger's corn and rat snakes, they are more temperature/humidity tolerant than ball pythons and less finicky eaters, as well. Just something to consider.
