You made a great choice! My spotted python was the first snake I got, but is still my favorite. He's as tame as a ball python out of his cage. He has a very strong feeding response, too, so you should have no problems with non-eaters. One problem with them is that babies tend to be nippy, however they will all grow out of this with age and handling. My spotted is active at night, but hides all day just like most other pythons. I love Foster and I'm sure if you get a spotted python you will love him/her too. As for care sheets, search for children's pythons. Spotteds and children's used to be considered the same snake, as they are so similar. Children's just tend to be a bit smaller (around 3 vs. around 4), and many lose their patterns when they reach adulthood, whereas the spotteds will keep their spots throughout their lifetime. Hope I was helpful, and good luck.
