Getting an older snake is a good thing in the fact you know it will eat. I adopted a 1-2 yr old Ball python last July from a pet store that takes in unwanted reptiles and small animals to re-home them for people that are in a jam. I was in there looking for a Hamster for my little brother when I happened to see the nice big tank and Ball Python in the adoption area. I asked about the snake and they said the owner's girlfriend thought it would eat her cat ( what a moron) so she told her boyfriend it was her or the snake and he chose her, the people at the store said he cried when he dropped the snake off. I asked to see the snake and fell in love with how calm and gentle he was, when I asked what his adoption fee was they told me $25.00 without the huge tank and $50.00 with the tank, What a steal!!!! The snake was named fluffy which I changed to Jakers and now he is almost three feet long, and eats like a wolf. So it can surprise you when you get an older snake. Good luck and yes you should have a tank already heated waiting for him.
