Since I was a little kid the pet I always wanted was a snake.
My mother would never have it.
Ended up getting a tarantula a few years back to kind of satisfy that exotic animal urge since I don't need my parents permission to make my life choices any more lol.
I figured tarantulas were always cool too and seemed even easier to care for.
Of course after getting into Ts I learned about misconceptions with them. Being handleable and the like etc.
Now I still love my Ts. I have 15.
But I finally just decided I needed my snake.
Looked at readily available smaller sized docile snakes.
Decided on a ball python.
Found a beautiful one at a small pet shop.
Got the setup ready.
And it's been happily living in its new home with me.
And is super super gentle.
It's a little timid (a baby) but not nippy or defensive. And calms down pretty quick.
This is little Boop. And Boop is everything I wanted a snake to be.
