    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Is there something wrong with my Ball Python?

It never curls up in a ball.... :shrug01: I've seen alot of them just knot them selfs up, but mine just lays in its little hiding spot clurled up... it has a good size cage, (4'x18"x18") and its about 6 months old. just a standard every day Ball.
 
Steve,
The "balling" is a defensive behavior exhibited by the animals when they are frightened. It would seem that your's is not feeling threatened. Be happy that he is relaxed in his environment and with you.
 
alright, thanks! i wasnt sure if it was that or maybe if they were too cold or something that they will try to hold in what ever heat they could....

this is my first ball python, and i really like it! my burmese python i always had to worry about it trying to kill me lol. (VERY tempremental, and i got it from someone that mistreated it)
