So anyways I already encountered so many ignorant stereotypes on Ball PYthons. Thats like me just saying "dogs" are all dangerous. There's different species as they are in snakes. Ball Pythons are as dangerous as a chihuahua and chihuahua bite more.
Here are some Ignorant FAQs:
Ball Pythons avg size: is 4 ft. Depending on sex. F(4-5ft) m(3-4ft).
Ball diet: frozen mice/rats.. once a week and when adults 1 rat every 2 weeks.
Ball Python life span : ? 15-30 years
Ball Python disease: There is no salmonella scare with snakes like with aquatic turtles.
Ball Python parasites: Farm bred snakes are pretty clean , wild caught have mites and such... no different than other animals.
Ball Python varients: There are some very colourful and patterned Ball Pythons. Ranging in price from $40-4000.. maybe more dependent on how rare the varient is.
Ball Pythons aggressiveness: As mentioned before , cats and dogs bite more than ballers. They are night hunters and only hunt mice. They dont bring down wild boar or a baby buffalo. They curl into a ball when startled which is most of the time hence the name.
Ball Pythons will attack childern and pets: Read above. No more than dogs and cats , heck my hamster bit me more than you think.
Ball Python will escape: along with all care , not if you have the proper equipment and knowledge in caring for one.
