1) Spent a year and a month learning everything I could prior to me buying your first Ball Python. 2) Talk to the breeder or seller prior to buying and never be afraid to ask questions such as: Does this snake eat frozen/thawed or live ? Has he/she have a successful shed? Asking questions never hurts. 3) No two snakes are the same. I have 5 Ball Pythons & yes, I had done a full year & one month of education prior to my first Ball Python who was actually a challenge for me. Izzy-Ivy was malnourished & had at least 2 stuck sheds on her. On the scale of 1 - 9,veterinarians use this scale determine if an animal is underweight or overweight (1 being at death’s door & 9 being extremely obese), Izzy was at a 2. She weighted in at 89 grams at the age of 3 - 4 months old. Now, after one year living with me, she is almost 400 grams. Has had successful sheds & is a good eater. She also lives in a 44 gallon enclosure. Jupiter-Star is another one of my Ball Pythons who has been in good prior to me buying and is still in good health now. Now, she’s about 6months older than Izzy-Ivy and when I placed Jupiter-Star into a 44 gallon enclosure, she was alright with it at first, but then she decided after a while she wanted to go back into her 20 gallon tank. So this proves no two Ball Pythons are the same when it comes to enclosures (along with many other things).

Here in northern Italy they are very common, they tolerate a dear range of temperatures (from minus zero to 40 degrees c) but I think that keeping it around the winds should be fine (here they also hibernate or in mist), they are fine for humidity about 30% 50%, the terrains they like best here are the undergrowth in the middle of the leaves but they also appreciate the sand and being under the rocks. native plants of their habitat are ivy (climbing vines), clover and trees such as oaks, chestnuts, and alders whose leaves you could use to decorate the terrarium, here isopods such as Arm are very common. vulgare and gestroi, this is in case you would like to make a biotope terrarium in the future.

Search the web for Richard Hoyer. His son had a website and had an amazing write-up by Richard on rubber boas. Mr Hoyer is the RB guru. There is more to these snakes than people think, and most folks that keep them probably are not offering ideal conditions. This is what I think after reading Hoyer's research and keeping a rubber boa myself. RBs like their base temps to be cool, and they use heat for digestion and gestation. But they conserve energy using cool temps. So easy on the heating.. keep the basking area small relative to the rest of the enclosure. You should not treat these like a cornsnake or something like that, they are specialized for specific habitat in areas that can get very cold in Winter, although there are populations in CA that are very close to desert believe it or not.

Where can I find one
Good luck.... They are very hard to find I wish I knew!
Isopods are a blast, for things like cleanup crews and feeders but they're a blast as pets too. The best is when you find about 10 minutes or so to just sit and watch them. enjoy!
Honestly I couldnt agree more lol! I want to get more. and i have like....wayyyy too many tanks so I can probably see myself setting up a nice tank just for them alone!
Isopods are amazing little creatures! They breed really fast as well. I sprinkle fish food in there for food and that seems to get them really fired up.
Yea I had to scale back cause I was using too much fish food, but youre definitely right on them being amazing!
So cute😊
Thank you!!
Imma keep it a hundred thou. If I saw that Tuesday morning I would not be having a happy Tuesday
haha depends on where you see it
