[QUOTE="DejaWiz, post: 3176135, member: 569941"] Get it. Ours is about 3 years old now and about 4.5ft long. A small to medium sized rate once or twice a week between March to Novenmber/December and it's good to go (some ball python's rarely, if ever, eat during the mid winter months). Make sure you do your research for proper habitat creation and care: [URL="http://www.kingsnake.com/ballpythonguide/"]http://www.kingsnake.com/ballpythonguide/[/URL] [URL="http://exoticpets.about.com/cs/pythons/a/ballpythons_2.htm"]http://exoticpets.about.com/cs/pythons/a/ballpythons_2.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.vareptilerescue.org/ballpyth.html"]http://www.vareptilerescue.org/ballpyth.html[/URL] [URL="http://www.petstation.com/ballpyth.htm"]http://www.petstation.com/ballpyth.htm[/URL] You'll probably hear this from other reptile owners and I'm going to state it here: DO NOT GET A HEAT ROCK. Get an under-tank heating element instead. Heat rocks can actually burn/kill your reptile since they will lay on it for extended periods of time basking. [/QUOTE]
