Aren't pythons the snakes that experts say they actually grow up watching their owners and thinking about wrapping around them in order to suffocate them? What do you feed that snake? What attracts you to a snake as a pet rather something like a dog, or cat, or a horse?
Id sure like to know what "experts" you are talking about. And I have a ball python not bermese. Ball pythons only get roughly 5 feet at max and will never eat anything bigger than a medium sized rat. The one in these pictures fits in the palm of my hand. I love dogs but am not allowed to have one where I rent. Snakes make great pets. They eat about once a week, could really care less if you pay attention to them, dont make noise, dont make a mess. I understand that not all people are snake people but it irritates me when people spout nonsense fron "experts" about how my tiny snake just wants to eat me. I guarantee more people get bit and serioulsly injured by dogs every year than have been by a pet snake in the last 10 years. Sorry for my rant. To each his own.
