Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

ball python ......cage should be about a 20 or 30 gallon under tank heating pad is a good heat source .....heat guns are best to test the air temp. (the heat thermometers that stick to the glass only get the glass temp. ....newspaper...paper towels wood chips ....all good substrates ...but in my opinion and many others a ball python is a good beginer snake
redtail boa...i dont know a hole lot about the mbut i hear they are doctile and are good for the beginner/ intermidiate snake handeler
gater/rat/ribbon snake....heard they dont bite much and are some what good for abeginner but in my opinion they are throw around snakes and i would never buy one ....i'd just go ina feild and find one

A ball can be a good starter snake, but there are things you have to look for. You should make sure the snake is feeding and is captive born and bred. A 10 gallon aquarium with a tightly sealing lid will be better for a smaller snake and then moving to a 20 gallon as the snake grows. Another good snake would be a corn snake. Again using a 10 gallon aquarium. Another good thing to have is a quality thermostat....Big apple sells one for about 30 bucks and are good stuff.Hope this helps,
-Matt
