Well I have to put a plug in for Ball Pythons. I too, never had a snake until three years ago when my then 10 yr old son begged me for a snake, any snake, at a reptile show. I held a ball python and fell in love. They are slow movers, which I liked. With 5 cats, I didn't want something that could get away from my son. I know some will probably say that there are other snakes that are good for beginers but in my opinion, you would be very happy with a ball python. I have one male that is now 3yrs old and he is about 3-4 feet long. I don't expect him to get much bigger and a yr after I got him I got a female. My son and I would argue over who got to hold the snake so I got my own. She is 4-5 feet long. At 2 I am not sure if she will get any longer. I have never had any problems with feeding her. The male sometimes goes on fasts but not often and not usually for long. They are both very docile.
