I've been working with ball pythons for over ten years now. Two years ago I decided to breed them as a business. I run a small operation. Currently I have approximately 100 snakes in my breeding program and hope to produce over 200 babies in the 2013 breeding season. I've always been fascinated by reptiles, snakes in particular, and being able to work with them every day is very satisfying.

Is it okay to buy a 2 year old ball python for first timer?

Asked by Jessica about 8 years ago

 

After spending a lot of time researching about ball pythons and buying all
The necessary tools for the enclosure, I bought my Spider Ball Python just yesterday at my local Snakes at Sunset. I have a 20 gallon tank, heating mat with a thermostat put at 90F, and 3 items to measure temp and humidity. First is a digital thermo/hydrometer with both probes around the “colder” hide area, a dual analog more to the hot side, and a single digital thermometer on the ground next to his hot hide( since i cant stick it on the glass). The heat mat runs 88-91F so i think im good there, but my dual digital and analog thermo/hydrometers dont match well. The analog reads 60sF and 60% humidity even though the thermometer on the same side but on ground is reading 80F, while the digital on the colder side reads 75F and 84% humidity( making no sense to me). Ive been paying more attention to the digital because of its higher popularity regarding accuracy but shows a high humidity of 84. Maybe i have the hydro probe too close to the water bowl or im doing something wrong. I have a part of the screen lide covered with a black towel and the enclosure is located in my living room here in Miami where the temps go between 78-69 according inside my house with AC. He was exploring a lot when i first put him there. I have read a lot regarding what i could be doing wrong but I think it would be better just explaining my exact situation to the more experienced ones. Thanks.

Generally speaking I'm looking to get into the hobby of snake breeding. The question I have is how money would I spend just starting off with 20 ball pythons to feed a month?
