>>How much of a difference is there in raising a ball python and a burmese python? Is the burmese a lot more of a challenge?



This is a trick question, right?



Ball= 5 ft, eat rats, mellow as heck, never outgrow a 50breeder tank, max. Not able to really hurt a human, even a child.



Burmese= three or four times that rapidly(pace this out in a room in your house and take a really good look), eat large rabbits, goats, pigs, require it's own room with locks- heated well, a bathtub or cattle trough to soak in, require more than a couple of adult, snake savy people around each and every time it is dealt with at all. Illegal in many municipalitys and states anymore....largely due to the unrealistic folks getting one and dumping it when it gets "big"...aka over 10 ft. And when they wanted to sell it found out no one wants the monster.
