The rescue lady says they were a bit thin when they came in, but they're eating f/t just fine now.

I cannot find a breeder nearby (I'm in Houston) that's good... and not out to get a few thousand off a pretty morph. I also don't want to get ones from petshops, even if there is a reptile-only shop here. I went and was completely turned off by them selling kittens (mamma cat was next to the cage), and 2 baby rabbits on Cedar bedding.

I've cared for a BP a few years ago. My boyfriend's sister has one, and when she was in the college dorm, my best friend and I cared for it at our apartment. It's just that that one came with all the required things to care for him. This one I hafta start a-new!
Ball Pythons hide for most of day so I'm not sure how often you'll see it anyway. Also, you should think about what is best for the snake before what you want.
