    **************************************************
    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....

HI there! We are looking to add another snake to our family and are torn between two, we need personal experiences, advice, any input really. We are currently looking at an absolutely drop dead gorgeous Albino Red tail female (4mths old) she is just the sweetest thing and we also found a Male (4yr old) Pastel Ball python that we like as well and we are weighing the pros and cons and trying to decide which snake would be best for us. And I am just looking for anyone's personal experience and opinion on which they prefer, what they're temperaments are, personality, ability to be handled, etc. Any input is greatly appreciated! We are experienced with snakes and know both the size expectations and life expectancy's no worries on either side!
 
I think you are going to get 50/50 opinions for and against either one. People tend to simply prefer one or the other, so this is going to come down to your personal preference.

I'm a boa person, feel they have more personality and can be more interactive as a pet you can handle. Ball pythons tend to be less active, but I'm sure ball python people would argue the other way.
