Yes, I have two snakes. Both are Ball Pythons. One is a 10 year old female and the other is a 2 year old male. I also used to have a Columbian Red Tail Boa whom I gave to a snake breeder and another Ball Python I got from a pet store which died because it was sick when I got it. I will never buy another snake from a pet store. They seldom know anything about the snakes they are selling and they are poorly taken care of. The snakes I have now are captive bred. If you are interested in getting a snake, I encourage you to buy only captive bred snakes rather than wild caught or captive born. Read about the species you are considering buying first. Some snakes are more aggressive than others and some need very high humidity, etc. Also, make sure you have a vet in your area that specializes in exotic animals in case your snake should get sick.

Snakes are beautiful and interesting creatures. Each has a personality all its own just like any dog, cat or other animal. I chose Ball Pythons because they remain small in size in comparison to other pythons and are docile in nature. I have never been bitten by any of my snakes and hold them often. They like to hide under my shirt sometimes.

Currently, I am treating my female for a staph infection. She is not too happy with me right now because she doesn't like it when I give her the injections but I only have three left to give her so I'm happy about that.

I love snakes and would have a whole houseful if I didn't live in an apartment. There are several other snakes I am interested in but at this time don't feel that I have the time to give them the special care that they need. Hopefully some time in the future I will be able to.
