Hello , I am a new owner of a baby Ball Python , and in searching for a forum for info and advice I came across this one. I did a lot of reading up on this breed before buying but am always open to learn as much as I can. I am very new to snakes and am a little nervous but excited at the same time .I think I made the right choice as everything I have found on the species says they are a great beginner snake.

Welcome to our little community.

A ball Python is a great snake, and very friendly as long as you handle them.

Re: New to site

Hyas & Welcome! There are a lot of us that have BP's, myself included, and have lots of experience in working with them and their nuances. Ask any question you may have, there is not such thing as a stupid question. (Well, 1. stupid question, "Do they need heat?" <----YES! lol)

Hope you enjoy it here. This is the most amazing forum I have ever been on and I am greatly impressed with the amount of knowledge every one has.

Re: New to site

Welcome bro, I have had four ball pythons and if you handle them regularly, they are great snakes to have. We all have a good bit of experience with snakes so if you have any questions ask away. Good luck with your little one!

Yeah, another Canadian! Ya'll thought we were shy and demure, but that's part of our plan as we slowly take-over, eh! <insert snicker here>
