Ball Python Babies

I'm pretty stoked. I purchased a lot of 25 ball pythons. These are normals, but who doesn't like a normal ball python. In the day where everyone wants to create some rare and expensive, we can always fall back on a normal.

I have a friend who believes that one day, the normals will be so hard to find that their price will start to climb again.

I bought these ball pythons wholesale from Josh at Outback Reptiles. I was leery at first, but decided that the comments on Fauna BOI, were sufficient for me to take the change. I've got some of them feeding on F/T fuzzies, but the others are feeding on live.

I will probably hold back a few of them that stand out, but for the most part all of the ball python babies will be for sale. If you are interested, please contact me for prices. I have males and females, and I will guarantee the sex.

Caring for Pet Reptiles

Caring for pet reptiles is relatively simple. As long as your habitat is accurate and the diet is correct, you should be on your way to a healthy reptile. But, you must first do your research just to make sure that you can provide the perfect enclosure for the reptile. Remember- the larger the reptile- the larger the enclosure.

Ball Pythons

Ball pythons are by far my favorite snake. They're very docile and reach a decent length- not too big or too small. But the one thing I absolutely HATE about ball pythons is their known reputation for being finicky eaters. Feeding Habits of Ball Pythons will give you some guidelines when it comes to feeding ball pythons. Some tidbits and experiences of my own and stories of experiences of others. Hopefully, by reading the article you will figure out why your snake isn't eating and what you can do for him.

Feeding Frozen is another good article about the frozen feeder rodents versus live feeder rodents. Now, I will go ahead and say that I feed live. Not by choice, but because my ball python won't eat frozen. Now, his last feeding, he grabbed and fully took a thawed mouse before I gave him a live small rat. That, to me, means he's ready to comply. I'm choosing to wait 3-4 weeks before feeding him again, so that he's good and hungry. Then I'll be attempting a thawed small rat.

When deciding upon getting your first reptile, it can be a hard decision. Trying to maintain a docile pet that you can hold, yet appealing. It's always best to do your research before purchasing any animal. Here's an informative article about the best beginner reptiles to have. The information in the article is taken from person experience and word of mouth from other reptile hobbiest.

Once you have decided upon a reptile of choice, you then need to decide where to get it. Before You Buy Retail Reptiles... is a great article about retail reptiles. It goes over the pros and cons about buying reptiles from corporate retail petstores. Personal experiences were used as examples in the article.

Because this is my intro to me and goReptiles, I thought it'd be nice to throw in the intro to reptiles. Reptiles have had an interesting start in life. I mean who would have thought that reptiles evolved from fish? I wouldn't have... Well, it's all in theory. This article give a short description about the evolution of reptiles.
