I get lots of scam texts that are meant to look like wrong number messages like "Hey [random name]! Can't wait for the cookout tomorrow!" They're realistic enough that when an actual friend of mine got a new phone number and texted me about a potluck, I ignored the message for 3 months till we ran into each other in person lmao
Scammers are funny... I was just sent a message about "toll evasion from the toll company" from driving. It's a group chat. With a weird link. And no company name. Further, my phone number wouldn't be available to them. LOL
I also enjoy setting up enclosures more for lighter-bodied snakes. I feel like it's so much harder to have fun engaging things in my ball python's enclosures because he just.. crushes things lol (not to say it's impossible it just takes bit more work + creativity)
I'm always a bit biased towards corn snakes lol Every one I've met has been very curious and bold whereas (in my experience) ball pythons have been been a bit more shy and reclusive
@Versa, dang. I have held some adult males, but I never realized they could get THAT big. I should have around $3,800 saved by that time and would be graduating within a couple months so it should work out! This is money set aside after caring for Oliver too. Depending on how he fares it may take me longer to save up.
Revel, Only thing to remember about ball pythons is that they can easily get MUCH bigger than corn snakes. When I was a little kid, my mother owned a python who ended up big enough to eat rabbits. So you've gotta remember food supplies and veterinary fees <3
