And That’s Why They’re Called Ball Pythons

Of course they’re also called royal pythons, but I’m pretty sure it’s self-evident from this picture why we call them ball pythons.

About Elise Xavier

Love reptiles, especially ball pythons - I think they're some of the coolest & most stunning pets around!

Started My Pet Python way back when I first adopted Havana, an adult female and my first real pet. I wanted a place to share all the tips & advice I dug up while I was researching pet care, hoping the research I did could help others along the way.

I also have a cat blog, as well as blogs on a slew of other topics. If you're interested, you can check out my other blogs here.

Only one of mine still does this–Maxine–she’s the smallest one I have.
