Publisher's Synopsis
A ball python makes a great snake for beginners. They can grow up to 5 feet in length, but they aren't as big as some constricting snakes. They are also quite easy to handle and are docile.
BALL PYTHON OWNERSHIP
Ball pythons are also known as royal or regius pythons. They belong to the same snake family with boas. These snakes are all constrictors. Constrictor snakes wrap themselves around prey until it is suffocated. Then they swallow it whole.
HOW BIG ARE THE BALL PYTHONS
Ball pythons can grow to be as small as 36 to 48 inches in adulthood. Ball pythons can be purchased at pet shops that specialize in snakes, or they may help to find a breeder.
