How to Care for a Pet Snake : Pet Snake Size Concerns & Ball Pythons

[Utsukushii]

@newkey0010 It depends. For a male ball, 3-4 feet is pretty normal as an adult, but females get larger. Also, if you feed more often, he'll probably buff up a bit. My 2 and a half year old male ball is about 3 feet and change.

[newkey0010]

@Utsukushii Yep. I started to feed it more often and its grown quite a bit now. It is grown a lot, its now 36 inches.

[CornSnake43]

[RagsUnderAmysBed]

whats the point of "Expert" village none of their "how to" videos are usefull, who hires these fuckwits??

oh the joy of beeing able to flag a video for haveing a misleading title :)

[herpingandgaming]

which is more annoying the add at the begining of the vid or the one in the middle of the vid reply and tellme what you think

[SpiffyYoshi]

Dumb bitch. Burmese pythons get less aggressive when they get older.

[mareptilesrock]

@SpiffyYoshi and they dont need a room.

[frosttbitee123]

That snakes cute (;

[hockeyislife3292]

Kids, tell your parents to buy you a Rock Python =]

[jtospeedy]

@hockeyislife3292 lol

[snake10566]

These people put out soo much false information. Yes, new snake owners should not get a large snake but a retic or a burm do not get "aggressive" when they are older. The owner makes the snake. IF you interact with it, 99% of the time it will be a nice "good" snake.

[joeyjmart69]

thumbs this up so people see

FOR PEOPLE NEW TO SNAKES:CORNSNAKES

FOR PEOPLE WITH EXPERIENCE :YOUR CHOICE MAN

FOR LITTLE KIDS HOW THINK SNAKES ARE COOL:ANACONDA JUST KIDDING DONT GET THAT LITTLE KIDS

[CornSnake43]

@joeyjmart69 Yeah I agree

Most people say Ball Python as your first snake but I say corns

My first 2 were corns know I have a ball.

Balls can be fussy eaters and bad shedders and corns are good at both.

I have a slightly picky corn and a very keen To eat ball python so it does differ slightly

depending on the snake but I think corns are a better first snake!

[turdsonthebus]

@joeyjmart69 haha yes go for an andacona kids!!! haha

[HaZeylI]

The amount of stupidity that Expert village spits out every day makes Einstein come from his grave and smack the shit outa them with his notebook...

[amnotfamous]

fuck you

[sawkiller1]

expert village........ it should be NOOB village

[jenna2136]

Fuck u

[lrfreptiles]

Burma,retina and anacondas DO NOT need a hole room. You can keep them in bath tubs.And racks you. Dont know what your talking about!

[MrCheemasaad]

hi,realy nice video...i just got 1 today but it.s not beautifull au urs..i just wana know who i can know his age nd his sex..?nd is he hungry or not..?can i play wid him every day did this make him angry? plzz reply i just wana know his feelings ..thanx....

[SmokenTotalled]

@MrCheemasaad You got a ball python?

Well you can ask the people you bought him from what his age/sec is or you can tell his age based on his size. You feed them once every 7-10 days, they should eat then, if not wait another 7-10 days and try again. You can play with him everyday once he's settled in but not for 48 hours after feeding. Also, when he's shedding(he'll have cloudy eyes) you shouldn't touch him cause it could irritate him.

[ADGothicMaggot]

@MrCheemasaad was it a good idea to buy a snake you new nothing about without even doing any research>? please contact me if you have any questions visit my channel some of the vids may help. but if you got any questions i should answer within a day so yeah.

[niceboy129]

so cute

[jamz8844]

Fool, she is talking about a veterinary term, not a description.

[styng88]

I think they were referring to the expert being exotic?

[akamaster09]

hi my name is sarah and i dont know shit what im talking about

[crunkman407]

LOL anaconda? Where the fuck would one acquire an anaconda?

[toaturner1988]

@crunkman407 Maybe it depends on state laws, but I've seen a few anacondas for sale at reptile expos in Michigan.

[XxbmthrockerxX]

LOLLOLOLOLOL ANACONDAS ARE NOT FOR SALE DOUCHE

[MONKEYDEELUFFY27]

LOL! My ball python was wrapped around my arm while i was watching this

[akamaster09]

omfg expert village is stupid they dont know anything!! stop making videos and also take down all ure videos

[KiDBEAST443]

WTF BALL PYTHONS DONT GET NO FUCKING 12 FEET BITCH THEY GET AROUND 4 OR 5 FEET STUPID BITCH DONT KNO WTF SHE TALKING ABOUT I DONT EVEN OWN A BALL PYTHON AND I KNOW THAT WHORE BEND OVER!!!!!

[potterthecockatiel]

I DISLIKE THIS I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE VIDEO WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?

[Setyrify]

ball pythons are not exotic. dumbass.

[potterthecockatiel]

@Setyrify Yes they are. Have you even kept on? I have they where totally awsome, man.

[Setyrify]

@potterthecockatiel They are not exotic. You can buy them from Petco for 30 bucks.

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify you obviously don't know what EXOTIC means dipshit. Example : REPTILES. And marsupial pets. All animals that arent rodents and canines and felines are exotic animals. You're the dumbass.

[Setyrify]

@dreamera1 You pull that out of your ass?

Exotic: Intriguingly unusual or different; excitingly strange

Ball pythons are NOT EXOTIC. Neither are bearded dragons or corn snakes. You are such a newfag, it's so obvious

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify lmfao your so stupid. Did you just look up the word Exotic?

Hermit crabs, ball pythons, corn snakes, bearded dragons and other reptiles are all exotic animals. Idiot.

[Setyrify]

@dreamera1 no noob, you still don't know what exotic means. instead of using ACTUAL EVIDENCE you just whine and bitch like a little 12 year old, boohoo

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify Look it up, asshole. I'm not whining. You are.

[Setyrify]

@dreamera1 you're whining, you're probably frustrated IRL as well. It's mind baffling how stupid you are to think corn snakes are exotic. You know, every time I think I've heard the dumbest thing, someone comes along to correct that assumption.

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify nahh im not. Yes because your stupid. Now stop talking and go away. :D

[Setyrify]

@dreamera1 aww, kiddy has run out of arguments

and now hes pussying out

Knew it.

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify lmfao no I'm laughing at you because your retarded. Look it up, smartass.

[Setyrify]

@dreamera1 ok u lost the argument kid

you can shutup and go cry in your basement now :)

[dreamera1]

@Setyrify You're stupid.

[awdity]

@Setyrify

Actually, you're incredibly wrong and dreamera is right. All reptiles are referred to as exotics in the veterinary world, regardless of where they come from or how common they are. It's the fact that they require more specialized training to care for in the veterinary sense. If you have a dog or cat, you would go to any veterinarian for care. If you have reptiles or even something like a ferret, you would want to seek out an exotic vet because of their special needs.

[Setyrify]

@awdity Nope, look it up.

Only newfags such as yourself would consider corn snakes and ball pythons "exotic". Hilarious.

[bellotti8101]

@Setyrify How are people that are just getting snakes "newfags" to me it just seems like you're a giant douche bag.

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify exotic is a term used for animals not native to the country you live in. dumbass.

[Setyrify]

@MinotaurTank nope

ur wrong again

dumbass

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify look it up idiot.. its the exact defination. and saying nope your wrong dumbass with out correcting me is just as stupid. go to college and learn about exotics before you try correcting some who does?

[Setyrify]

@MinotaurTank EXACTLY the response i was expectin

ur such a newfag

i bet u keep nothing but bp and small lizards

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify i do indeed but i work with burmeae retics and varius tegus in my college every day so wts your pont and lemme see your reptile collection?

[Setyrify]

@MinotaurTank LOL doesnt matter dont try to bring this on me kiddo

u just keep shitty little pets and u think ur all cool because you ocassionally get to touch a retic? newfag little kids like you need to get the hell out of the hobby

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify says the kid who hides his age and doesnt have 1 reptile. /clap

[Setyrify]

@MinotaurTank LOL kid i have three retics

u can only dream because u keep shitty ball pythons and shit, i bet you'll never amount to anything. have fun with ur tiny kiddy reptiles :)

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify wheres ur retic vids then ass hole? i can easily make up thati have a lot of "big" reptiles and tbh i like royal pythons

[lentilofhope]

@Setyrify Trolling troll is trolling.

[MinotaurTank]

@Setyrify your time of the month. prick.

[ptfcblack10]

am i the only one who thought she made it seem like the ball python would get 15-20 feet? i know they don't i just thought it was poorly worded

[MegaBwick]

@ptfcblack10 yea she said they grow to 15-20 ft hahahah wow so retarded, i have 2 BP and trust me, they arent even close to that :P

[Gibblefarts]

@MegaBwick she said bermes and reticulated, not ball python reach that length

[starbight]

Hey how big will a corn snake get when it's an adult ?

[nighwolf435]

@starbight around 1,5 2 m

[XXJULIUSXX1993]

experts haha right

[gunspinner101]

expert my ass!

[superstar6o9]

anaconda! haha wat a dummass chick...no one would even want to sell one of those at a pet store! what an idiot!

[Und3ad50ldier]

@superstar6o9 my pet store has them lol no joke...

[himynameiselliot]

Is it just me, or do they all say uhm 900 times. And thank god she told us all where she works, make sure u dont send your animals to her animal hospital, theyll probally just die

[rowdy4asbell]

@himynameiselliot I agree

[spaded]

ummm how many people are really getting an anaconda..... fuck sake expert village,

[Bakusaiga1311]

do snaked often try to kill you o_0 or bite n stuff

[nikesk8er10]

@Bakusaiga1311 no not really a ball python or milksnake wont mut the hots (venomous snakes) will usually

[d3th4u2]

Ball python this , ball python that... People should migrate away from these and more towards the boas. I have looked at red tails, but I have a Dumeril boa atm, and it has a better disposition than the ball pythons and only get between 6-9ft long, and once you think about it, 6ft is only 1 1/2 feet longer than 4 1/2 which is near what the female ball pythons get too. that is not unmanageable large, and they will turn away before they hiss or bite, unlike any of the pythons.

[Depro900]

Hello I really want a pet snake but I do not want to feed it mice, is there any snake types/species that can maybe just eat small chunks of fish or maybe large crickets? And maybe a type that stays very small?

[gibblesthechicken]

@Depro900 garters will feed on goldfish/minnows if you get a dish deep enough for the fish, they will also feed on crickets or earthworms

[Depro900]

@gibblesthechicken thanks but is it possible to purchase a garter at a pet store? And if so would they be tamed and not bite?

[gibblesthechicken]

@Depro900 i was bitten by one, lol but their mouths are so small it does nothing at all

[gibblesthechicken]

@Depro900 also, yes but i would never prefer getting a snake from a pet store, if possible try finding a local breeder, and always check for anything wrong, missing scales, red or yellowish tint inside their mouths, any lumps or kinks in their body, any discharge in the vent(groin) and make sure nothing is wrong with their mouths (make sure it's not even hanging open and if they let you hold it make sure it's tongue is flicking a lot)

[camjam890]

Do these people just stuff up

She thinks retic anacondas and burms r mean just because they get big... Didn't make any sense at all

[evesrib]

Guys seriously, she's just discussing the size of the snakes. This video is not meant to be an all-inclusive information guide.

[johnythanj]

dude this chick doesnt know SHIT

she thinks retics are mean!! they are so puppy dog tame!!!

[iluvpie1223]

She thinks shes the steve irwin of snakes because she gets to hold one

[BIGBANKSBOY]

@iluvpie1223 lol haha ha so true

[mappoprimo]

snakey snakey.

[jasondouglas90]

my normal corn eat my butter motley and the its head fell off what do i do ??

[HOLLISKID23]

thousands of how to fail videos

[96amadeu]

yea. lol. they dont no anything about snakes.

[mappoprimo]

LOL :D

[poultneytrainz85]

fucking expert village!!!! bunch of twats.. they should remove there vid's

[danecook321]

Eh, go outside and catch a garter snake, those are the best snakes to keep, they need almost no care, they don't need heat pads or heat lamps, just give it a dish of water with some feeder fish and a place to sleep under and you're all set!

[RenatoandEric]

Oh wait, srry, wrong vid i commented on, this girl doesnt know what shes talking about.

[RenatoandEric]

This is the one expertvillage video of snake care I like. This guy actually knows what he's talking about and is very informative. The people in the other vids don't know anything about snakes.

[lightsuit]

lol wtf she said not to have a retic or a burm and no shes like not for beginners wtf

[Grinnellfeather]

would it be safe to house a young burmese python and a boa constictor that are around the same size in the same cage ive seen it done with balls and boas

[near1717]

no it is not they would end up fighting

[SharrkyX]

does she talk about the snake shes holding can be 15-20 feet?

[near1717]

no the snake she is holding males reach ussualy around 3 ft and females 4-5 ft atmost 6 ft

[SharrkyX]

oh ok :P ty

[eddywangchang]

you need a heat source

[ballpythonguys]

yes you do

[yankovic44]

i love my ball python

[cmoneybanks26]

what do u feed it and how big is it im curiuos

[yankovic44]

i feed my baby ball python mice the size of the thickest part of her body.

[shakemysnakefool]

snakes arent evil.. but burmese do need room.

do any of you so called herpists actually own an adult burmese or retic or indian or african python???

i see alot of babies on youtube but i dont see many who til have them after 10 years

[ncheese87]

a whole room, wow im high as shit right now and i still now thats bullshit. Can anyone tell me where this dumb broad gets her dope

[Snakeowner6995]

This vid is fucking retarded a burmese python would not need a whole room. And to the people talking about christianity this is a snake vid go to some religion chat site if u realy wana talk about evil snakes gosh. "by the way snakes are not evil"

[konvickted9o0o]

burmese grow up to 15 feet...above 15 is abnormal....and rets grow up to 30 feet....around 35 can be normal........

[dopeking2003]

35 is OTT, average around 20-25 ft for retics/anacondas.

[morphs4life]

burms and retics are not going to need an entire room for when they get big dumasses wow you now nothing about snakes

[TheBeastWithinYou]

You know that depending on the size of a room, they do, You dont keep an adult retic in a tub and still have it be healthy

[gnarley123321]

Thank you captian obvious, burms retics and condas dont make good pets, but they dont get agressive with regular handling

[jimmyjoel1337]

Followers who follow fables. /sigh

[mattmatt12343]

the snake is symbolic for the devil, there is nothing eveil but man.

[dalektaliban]

in my religion yogie bear is the symbol of the devil

[detriplea]

In Ma relijin

dalektaliban iz xa symvol ov efil.

[jtbowman132]

ughh snakes are devils without legs......

[kbamch92]

thats just an idea the damn bible put. Snakes are beautiful and docile creatures that have to be respected like any othwer of gods creatures.

[jtbowman132]

well excuse me but i go bye the bible, AND NEVER PUT CURSING BEFORE THE BIBLES NAME, you FREAK. and yes they are gods creatures just evil ones >:P

[kbamch92]

They are not evil and there is no such thing as an EVIL animal. Every animal including us look and act the way they do because of evolution. :/ FREAK

[sheetguy12]

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT HOLY MOTHER OF CHRIST hows that for evils

[slashrocks1980]

ur a religius freak god wouldnt have made them if their evil dummy your both wrong thier not evil but he shouldnt have cussed

[jtbowman132]

........um ok

[iamthebestcozirock]

There is no god. No heaven or hell. Shut up. Stop bringing your religious views onto reptile videos. And if you don't like them, Stop searching for them. "FREAK".

[jtbowman132]

Become a Christian! Your life will completly change!!

[iamthebestcozirock]

Why would I want to become a christian? I don't believe in god, Or heaven or hell, And I damn sure don't want to.

[jtbowman132]

stop talkin to me, pleez stop talkin to me i offered and u didnt want it.. a simple no thank u woulda be nice but u had to say it in a bad bad way

[iamthebestcozirock]

I'm not going to be nice to a bible bashing cunt.

[arrowcarver]

kudose

[Gloopcake]

wow that was 'polite'...

[BlackNGoldRules]

You're not a Christian. You wouldn't come on here wishing people to go to hell if you were. Real Christians don't do that. And snakes aren't evil. That's just ridiculous! God doesn't create anything to be evil!

[jtbowman132]

Ok, first thing

You just hurt me really bad by saying i am not a Christian. How will you know? I asked him to save me when i was 10. I got baptized when i was....10! And recently i went to a Christian Camp over the weekend. What a blast it was!! I loved listening about what our Savior does for us!

And second of all.

Ok, you're right about how God doesn't create anything evil! The devil's soul got into snakes back then, so people started to say the devil's soul is in every snake!

[786myfist]

stop raging and spamming about your god jt bowman this is a how to care for snakes page, not your "I was baptized when.." nobody cares.

[konarider]

Thank you! God people like that are rediculous!

[ComradePorkie]

A lot of 'real Christians' do actually go around telling people they will go to hell, especially if they disagree with them in any way. It's the 'no true Scotsman' fallacy all over again. But it's nice to meet one who doesn't for a change. You're right of course, snakes are not at all evil, and a loving God could not and would not create something evil. They prey on other animals because they have to in order to survive, and may bite humans in self defence - but they are not 'evil'.

[zandone45]

only humans are evil by nature

Owned

[jtbowman132]

no that was not ownage, that was a waster of a comment and time

[BlackNGoldRules]

very true!

[Gloopcake]

very mature

[Seydaschu]

Gee, I'd sure like a pet devil. :B

[jtbowman132]

l0l wow

[CallxMexDavid]

i hate dumb people like her

[flabazoid]

she made it sound like ball pythons get 15 to 20 feet at the end of the video

[reptileguy100]

how much does a tank cost for a full grown ball python

[ReptilePIMPs]

depends what tipe of tank

[Jordan060692]

Oh you got to love the Ball i got mine a few months ago and it is super freindly. soon ill be getting a green tree python.But BPs are still my fav.

[sheetguy12]

so how big do they get in General like as big as a Small dog like a Pug or full grown cat? or bigger then that

[yikem]

i had a burmese as my first snake.... not like you have a week before they get 13 feet.

[cheeriocheerios]

Wow! love them, If your a second time snake keeper who in the future would like a burmese python would you recommend buying a very young burmese and growing into it? any help would be much appreciated, cheers

[muhammadyousuf1]

i really want an albino corn snake but my parents are being weird about owning a snake and i have a cat

[hellboy80004]

Hey, My entire family was very prejudice towards snakes but I didn't give up I just kept trying to educate them by showing the good things about snakes and showing them I was going to be committed to the snake and when we finally went to the reptile store and she saw how friendly and cute Ball Python's are she let me get mine that day :). So just keep trying and keep learning more and more about the snake you want.

[mer030]

dont listen to her! get a retic

[RoyalyMorphedAlex]

lol

[suweileh77]

nevr listen to expert village lol1
