I've purchased a Ball Python. What should first be done?
I've finally got my hands on a Ball python at the Broken Arrow Reptile expo in Oklahoma.
He is a male and 1 1/2 feet long normal pattern. I chose male because of the slightly smaller size.
I have a few questions.
1: He has a few rough scales on his belly. Is this normal?
2: How long should I leave him alone before handling him?
On his cage at the expo it had normal/Male/40 written on the cage. What would that 40 mean?
He is a bit skittish right now, but is very docile given the situation (Traveling from Arkansas to Oklahoma then having about 20 people hold and tease him) and then a 200 mile ride home.
