Re: boycott
Belovedboas, you need to go to a reptile expo- the Ball python jokes fly like crazy. They got the common name "ball python" because of their habit of rolling into a ball when frightened. Royal python does make them sound more proper though. lol.

Re: boycott
I think people outside the hobby recognise royal python rather than ball python, in my experience anyway.
However we all like ball jokes dont we???

Re: boycott
My balls have never balled up.
I have one big ball and 3 little balls.
I like to let my balls crawl around the house.
When my balls get cold, they often curl up in a nice warm spot.
My balls love the humid box.
Sorry, couldn't resist...Rob, you're a bad influence LOL
I have no problem using Ball or Royal. At least stateside, newbs only know of BPs as Ball Pythons....you mention Royal Python and most are like "huh?" 
Oh yes, the techno-fever....do you like metal?! If so, I'd suggest some good ole Rammstein!

Re: boycott
Danger- 4h30 youtube it.... Sweeeet song.
Dödselectro sweet electro/techno log
royal python- cool cause Cleopatra and its history
ball python- nickname because of its defensive posture which is cool because it helps people accept such a "frightening" animal.
