    Red face New here and thinking of getting this snake and tank

    For some odd reason I have been getting this immense drive to get a snake. I have been reading up and feel that a ball python might be a good way for me to start (please correct me if this assumption is flawed).

    I found someone that needs to get rid of their snake so I contacted them, they sent me some pictures (below).

    One thing that I noticed with my limited knowledge is that the snake shed it's skin in pieces. I'm guessing this is due to the lack of humidity in the tank. It is a 50 gallon so I am not sure if this is something that will take some work to get up to 40%-60%.

    I feel like I am ready to take the plunge but would like to know what any of you might ask the previous owner. I have asked about general temperment, where she feeds the snake, any previous problems, etc. I didn't ask about the flooring (anyone know what that is?).

    In any case, let me know what you guys think. Any/all comments will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
