I just got a ball python recently and have been doing a lot of research (still have tons more to do though). Apparently she had been at the pet store longer than they normally are (the gal was so right about her being a sweetheart so I have no idea why no one wanted her). At the moment she's in...

I got a new ball python today, shes a royal. Since shes so small she is kinda flighty, but has a really nice personality.

I realized that I haven't posted any pictures of my snake on here for some reason. So here are a bunch of recent photos of my ball python, Sahara:

This is my Royal (Ball) Python. He/she (has not yet been popped) is not even a year old and is only 26" inches as of July. I love this lil fella. I can't wait till he/she reaches the full length (about 3-5ftish) though watching the growth is fun too. This is the only animal in my house whom I...

Recently this has come up and trying to be polite I didn't want to take over someone else's thread to discuss it. Funny thing is I never thought this would come up on a forum of mice\rat lovers but hey stranger things have happened! First off let me say I am not in ANY way against snakes or...

I have an empty 10 gallon tank that is just begging me to put something in it. I don't have time for new pets in the next two months, so right now i'm just researching my options for when I start working less and have more time to spend at home. I'd really like a rubber boa, but with legality...

Hi everyone, I'm from Alberta, Canada. I'm always looking out for places I can add to my haunts. I find message boards are a great way to talk for hours about my pets without getting a resounding "ewww" or "are you done yet?" kind of reaction. While growing up I had two cats: Fezz (who took to...

About 5 days ago, my brother got a baby corn snake, and his/her name is Maize. We were wondering, should we feed it two pinkies a week since it's growing, and how long will it take until it's fully grown?

I have a 4 year old ball python. First of all, she is so timid. She NEVER comes out of her shelter. Ever. I take her out every couple of days and she does fine when I handle her, but she never comes out when she's in her terrarium. Is there anything I can do about that? And another thing...
