hey all!



im not exactly sure what my question is but i know i have one... just haven't formulated it into words just yet... id like to just hang around and see what yall are up to and know... but heres where im at in my snake world...



my husband and i are very soon going to be purchasing a ball python (hopefully) and we are doing some reading and stuff about them. I have owned snakes before but none quite this big. Anyway i just have a question about this one particular burmese python actually. After i saw this one i began wondering if i should start with him. hes an albino burmese python in this pet store down town and its in a REALLY bad condition (eg. cage is WAY too small, too cold, too many people. etc)... it has been sitting in that cage for the last 2 years and i finally got up the courage to ask about him a couple of days ago... and the ladys eyes got real big and she told me he was mean?... like how? and can that change?... this snake is probably around 7-8 feet already and he was captive bread. Im not into handling my reptiles and herps all that much and i wouldn't dare handle this one... but tell me this... would it be worth getting him out of that environment?... or would that not be such a good idea? and how much different are burmese pythons and balls temperment wise?
