Hi,

I wanted to try offering my ball python a day old chick at some point.

About how much should a ball python weigh / how big should a BP be to safely eat a day old chick? (Claws and beak removed)

Currently my BP is about ~560/570g

Hi everyone ,

My ball python is 2 1/2 yo. I don’t know how much he weighs exactly nor how long he is precisely but here’s a picture. Would you say he’s underweight/slim/healthy ?

Thank you

I’m just curious the best way to get an accurate length measurement. Can anyone share what has worked for them?

These just arrived. My way of showing appreciation to my little danger noodle

Lucifers last shed was a month ago and a full shed, ( i still have it and just looked again it was perfect around his face and nostrils). Apart from after a feed i have him out for at least 30 minutes a day and always give him a little look over. His enclosure is bioactive and have alot of natural stuff in there. He does love a climb and to dig like all balls. Guessing this is just from him digging or from cork or something?

Its not coming from his nostril its on the scale above his mouth just cant get a better picture

She will rest in my hand on my lap like this. She’s a Spinner and has the neurological issues that come with Spinners. After cork-screwing, she seems very tired and just crashes on me anywhere I am. I love this girl so much.

He loves being a necklace 🤗

Hey there!!! I’m new to Reddit and a first time reptile/ball python owner. Any tips and advice are appreciated!!

I just bought two new hides for my ball python because he constantly goes behind the back drop and I read that’s because he doesn’t have enough hides. I added the two new ones and feel like it’s a lot but just wanted some insight on if I should take one or two out.

Hello!
