Because ball pythons can be stressed out for more reasons, I've been bitten by my ball that I've had for 6 months twice.. and only once by my FIRST corn and he was sick.Originally Posted by jorgasm
Even my crazy female corn who is fearful of any touch, doesn't bite.. she just.. musks. D:
I love, adore, and own both for many different reasons.
Balls
- I love the way that ball pythons handle.. it's a bit more calm and the way that they feel is very fun. For begginner snake handlers, it's a bit less intimidating than holding a fast moving corn.
- They don't poop as much and it usually doesn't smell as bad.
- They are a bit more of a challenge, which I enjoy.
- I love the morphs!
Corns
- Cheaper for the snakes and morphs in general.
- Less specific about temps and husbandry details.. much easier in that range.
- Usually have a better feeding response.
- The morphs are cheap and very pretty, they are also good begginner breeders before balls to get used to the entire idea.
- I don't mind smaller/thinner snakes and still enjoy holding them when I'm in a 'faster' mood.
That basically covers it.
