3 years 3 foot is good, he looks very good. Just be patient to feed him. If you got him from a friend or pet store, ask them what his favor was. In some cases it might be tough to get a ball python to eat when something changing. Good luck. He will be very friendly later, though he is shy now.

Do a google research, there are bunches execllent sites about ball python. (sorry, the links I booked are not on this computer). When I said execllent, it is execllent. I can get every information and tip you need.

wow that sure beats a puppy wtg~!

bassintom · 08-04-06, 12:16 PM

you should invite lizards over for dinner???????????????lmao

PowerBass · 08-04-06, 03:05 PM

O man I hate snakes, but what ever floats your boat, good luck with him B-F-G.

1/4 stick · 08-04-06, 03:14 PM

I use to always want one, but first mom would'nt let me, then the roommate would'nt let me, then the x-wife would'nt let me. (Shoulda skipped the wife and bought the snake) Just kidding...really... I'm just kidding.

Seriously, I don't think I'd be able to care for him/her properly. And I've developed a bit of a snake phobia after a few encouters with cottenmouths. A different critter entierly I know, but it's still a snake.

Good luck with it, may he or she grow big and healthy and live a long life.

btw....ya want some more cats, I got plenty in the yard. Fed one wild cat now there's a dozen, and the kittens keep coming.

lizardsrule · 08-04-06, 08:41 PM

I was expecting a loveable dog or something, but that's just plain old insane

You are still welcome fishing with me, just not that THING

1/4 stick · 08-04-06, 11:50 PM

zooker · 08-05-06, 06:06 PM

carpy

1/4 stick
the 14 footer is not a toy.. i have had him give me a squeeze once that was enough.. it is amazing just how strong they really are.. i used to put a mouse/rat in a up side down soup can. barney- my lil snake- would mangle the soup can getting to it..i could not bend the soup can that much with my bare hands. barney is only 46" long..

bassking22 · 08-05-06, 07:15 PM

I hate snakes, if I ever saw that thing, forget a knife or a shovel, out come the .357. My dad is known in texas for giving rattlesnakes a taste of the 12 gauge.

Bass_fishing_girl · 08-05-06, 11:33 PM

Remind me NOT to invite ya'll over for dinner!!!!
My little guy is sweet!! He wouldnt hurt ya.
San

bassking22 · 08-05-06, 11:34 PM

Your right, he wouldn't, I would hurt him first.

FlyRod · 08-05-06, 11:37 PM

Well, them thar constrictors do pack a nasty bite and infection can result.
Mighty pretty critter though. Congrats!

BTW, what size hook do you use to T-rig one of those?

FR

bassking22 · 08-05-06, 11:39 PM

12/0, after you rig em up with a .357 sinker.

flfireman · 08-05-06, 11:57 PM

BFG, if they make you happy, get a bunch. Im not a big fan of live snakes. Had a ball python lock onto my hand one time, the owner had me move some stuff for him. Forgot to mention it was the cloth he kept the rats in. Well, the little python caught wind of the scent and decided my hand was his next meal. Thank God it was small. NO SNAKES FOR ME!

Dats why I'll let you experts keep em'.

As far as killing one, nah, they have thier place too. Unless they present an imidiate danger. (note: one that falls into my boat is regarded as an imidiate danger.) (safty tip: if one falls in said boat, use a paddle, not the gun.)

bassking22 · 08-06-06, 10:47 AM

Id still be freaked out enough to put a hole in my boat lol.

If I had a boat..............
