Ball Python Care Question????

evercraig190 Aug 08, 2006 04:38 PM

Hi all, i have been keeping snakes for probably 4 years now, mainly ball pythons and boas...i have kept a few balls but they were all normal..and ive done research on the net a few times and my snakes have all done fine..now to my question, im going to daytona and im investing in an albino ball, which is not your average 50 dollar normal. i want to make sure i maintain 110% proper care for him as i do not want anything to happen to him...what website do yall suggest has the best comprehensive and up to date care information?

thanks for all of the help...

Most breeders websites have really good info. However I would look into getting a book too. Most websites can't go as in depth as a good book. The Ball Python Manual from AVS is OK, I know there has to be a better more complete book but I don't know what it is or where you would get it.

It is usually not a problem finding the information you need, but the problems usually arise from not listening to the advise.

ie..When someone says leave the snake alone for a week after getting it, it does not mean carry it around to show all your friends, then shove mice in it's face and wonder why it won't eat.
