ball pythons

Tweet

I have ball python(Kratos), it was given to be by a friend. When I got it I was very happy. Then I talked to my mother, she said I needed "get rid of it",(she thinks she runs to homes), I refused. She told me that it would get very big, she was worried it would eat my daughter. I told her she had nothing to worry about, and that pythons full grown would be no bigger then 5 feet. As for my daughter she would never be around it alone. I am a responsible pet owner, and mother. Some people say that pythons are great for kids, and beginner snake owners, I would definitely say so myself. My mother has never owned a snake and never would, she fears them. If your interested in this kind of snake and haven't already got one, I would consider you buy a ball python. Before you do this it's best to make sure you are able to care for it properly. If your scared of holding it that would be a problem seeing how pythons should be held. Do you like pythons? I would love to hear why you are interested in this kind of snake. I myself love the patterns, my python has little owls down his body. It's just great! I would love to hear from other python owners, maybe you can teach me something new. I would even like to hear from those who don't like pythons, maybe i can change your mind, or not. I would still like to know why you wouldn't like them or why you'd fear them.
