Awww, cute baby noodles! We love our playpen for the babies. I recommend it to all my snake loving friends. Congrats to everyone that will be welcoming one of these snakelets home in the near future!
I agree! I’ve got one and Marie & Darwin love it. I can’t put them in it together anymore because Darwin would try and mate but they enjoy it separately
Hey Bob, The playpen you use with all those different new objects for them to explore is really cool. It looks like they like hanging out there for a while. Another great, informative video. Ball pythons really starting to grow on me.
It’s so cool to see my beautiful little girl. She’s such a gorgeous Clown-Pied and I’ve got her new enclosure all ready for her! And Lane Labs has her food on its way❤ Edit: Oops. Layne, not Lane🤣
Bob!! I saw snake discoverys latest video: You still have a slight chance to join the build of 2024! CONGRATULATIONS!! I have my fingers crossed for your second chance, you deserve it!!
Very interesting video, I haven't seen any other breeder show or tell that they socialice the baby snakes before selling. Really shows how much you care about the snakes you breed.
New father to a 1.5yr normal ball python.. Glad i found your channel, regert it wasn't sooner. Ive learned a little so far with lots lots more to come. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thank you for explaining your playpen method! I've seen a few people trying to advocate for cohabbing and it always seems to be people with habitats that are almost too small for one, let alone multiple animals...and little to no stimulus other than 'multiple hides' and the actual number never stated. I really enjoyed seeing the care you put into socializing and providing for your little ones. I'm glad I saw your yt and gave a follow!
Super cute I really love the banana morph and Max it’s really nice to see them all exploring and adapting to the new environments so well. It’s so cool how so many combos and morphs you can get not to mention personalities. 😂 even as someone whose really loved snakes most of my life it’s still new to me that they have personalities outside of pure instinct.
One thing for sure! When it comes to the snake community , people will say all kinds of ridiculous stuff of what you can and can’t do with a ball python! I have a play pen for mine and they both go in to exercise and while I’m cleaning and they are not trying to attack or eat each other. Love this video 😍😍😍😍
I just got a 3 month old BP. He is super nervous but slowly he has gotten more comfortable with me. Im glad to know im doing it right! lol Love your content
HOLY COW it is awesome to see how much the channel has grown. I remember when the patreon list was smaller and it was easier to find my name 🤣 but so stoked to see you getting all the support and hype you deserve!!!!
I love seeing everything you do behind the scenes with your noodles and the care you take with your little snakelets while they are with you 😊 I can’t wait to get on the waitlist for Delilah’s clutch!
I got my first ball python about a 9 days ago and fed her for the first time today and she ate!!! I fed her a f/t adult mouse using your tips and it worked! Thanks for the videos, I’ve learned a lot and continue to learn from them!
@Kxdmia she still has an insane feeding response, but only when the smell of rat is in the air. She is so calm now! And getting big! She's just shy of 700g now.
Brilliant as usual, just bought a playpen (which I'm looking forward to "furnishing") for my little guy. Thank you for your videos, every one is as precious as the last.
I went to my first reptile show yesterday. It was the first time I had ever touched, much less held a snake, chameleon, and Satan’s gecko! Lol, sorry for triggering all the gecko fans. They are super cute but I have ptsd and it jumped right onto my chest. I didn’t scream, but we moved along quickly after it was retrieved from my person. I held a baby hognose that is a little spastic for my comfort. I held two baby ball pythons and I fell in LOVE! When we’re ready, I have no doubt that balls are for me! I held one who fell asleep on me. If I had an enclosure set up, she would have gone home with me. You, Snake Disc., and Clint’s Reptiles gave me the confidence to quash my snake fears! Thank you!💚🐍
That first baby was the "bitiest" BP I've ever seen. Like my king snake was when younger. But still just beautiful. And, I don't know, I sometimes like my snakes to have some attitude (when small and harmless). Very cool.
omg i needed this. both of my babies that i got from you are awesome but a little particular. i’m fully aware that ball pythons are not known for being social but these two have been so mellow and curious about exploring. but the oddest thing has been happening both will find ways to get out of their enclosure which is a 36x18x12 that has a divider so they each get a section while they are still little. they both escape their side of the enclosure and they literally sleep next to each other. i have to keep an eye out to get them back to where they belong. they have hides on each side that i’m planning on spraying black because they are a bit translucent and might not be cutting it for them. hot side set to 90 cool side to 80 humidity stable around 50%. i want to make sure that i haven’t missed anything because they are otherwise very gentle a little skittish as ball pythons normally do with no issues with eating. will be feeding the new banana boy today or tomorrow depending on what i see today. i thought i saw his eyes clouding up like he was going into shed.
I know your room is escape proof but HOW do you manage to keep them all in those tubs haha! Awesome video as always, admirable passion for snakes that I just love. ❤
I noticed that too with my ball python babies; they flock together when they're in their play pen / free roam area. With my first clutch I got a tip to let them all live together for the first few days / separate them after their first shed. They had numerous hides, but I always found them all tightly tucked together in one when I went to check on them. Maybe it provides a sense of safety for them when they're that young and vulnerable, to stick together? Harder to be singled out by a predator maybe? Interesting to observe anyhow.. Love your videos btw! I felt like such an odd one for how I treated my ball pythons as animals and not objects, and then I saw your videos and how we have the same philosophy and approach to these lovely snakes, and found a lot of comfort and inspiration in that :) Keep doing what you're doing, and thanks for sharing! You're inspiring a lot of people
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! Yes, you definitely want to keep babies together until their first shed. They always pile up like that when they're first hatched and waiting to shed.
Since they hatch as a clutch together, in the wild babies would interact more than adults. Also, they're more vulnerable to predation than adults, so they might be sticking together for protection.
Love your video as usual, I probably should just contact you on patreon but could you do a video on what to do during a power outage and proper body shape for health.
So I rescued a juvenile ball python. Approximately little over 2 ft long. Would it be fine to keep in a 40 gallon front opening tank. That's all I have available. Or do I need to buy a 20 gallon front opening cage.
I never know the dimensions of fish tanks but my guess is a 40 gallon will be plenty big enough. Just make sure it's set up correctly with plenty of hides and clutter
promise you that banana boy made it here nice and clean. his name is Zenitzu and is super curious. Tried to feed him on 10/15 but he didn’t want anything to do with it. will try again on wednesday
I've been wondering this: doesn't the tub system require a heat mat or something similar to that? Or don't the baby snakes need it? I'm just very curious and want to know as much as I can!
Ball python morphs are so pretty 😭 I want a corn snake but I feel like I'm gonna get a ball python as well just cuz theyre so pretty. And also your videos make me love ball pythons a lot XD
Hi! I am thinking about getting an adult ball python, but I have a question about putting snakes back in their enclosures. I remember in another video you had said that you don’t want a snake’s most recent memory of being out of the enclosure to be a negative one so you should let them calm down before putting them back, but here you mention that if you see them getting antsy and their body language changes, you should put them back. So how do you sort of manage that? Thanks!
Hey Bob, me again, I'm picking up a couple of 2500g breeder females this week and I want to give them the best home possible. If I'm using a rack system for now, do you think a fb40 is enough space? What would you recommend?
I don't know that tub size but I don't believe that's the largest FB tub recommended for ball pythons. You'll need to do some research on it but I believe you need at least one size larger
Not Bob, but I use 40s for my smaller adults. FB70s are the same length but a little wider so I use those for my biggest ball pythons, which are about the size of your new ones. just to make sure they have a bit more wiggle room. I personally think I want to go maybe a bit larger when I hopefully get more room...but those are the tubs typically sold for larger pythons and boas after that.
Hi! New snake owner here! I get my new banana baby next Friday and I am studying up like crazy! Your videos are extremely knowledgeable and helpful so thank you! Question! For the first week of quarantine, do I change the paper towel in the bin if he’s peed? I can’t seem to find anything on this. I know you’re supposed to leave them be for the first week.
Congrats on your new snake! Yes, during the first week and all of quarantine, you can change their paper. You just don't want to take them out of the enclosure and be messing with them during that first week but if you need to pick them up to clean, you can do that.
@@GreenRoomPythons I have another question for you! How do I keep the quarantine bin humid? I read that keeping the paper towels moist might not be a good thing for the snake? Would a humid hide work? Also at what humidity level is good for him overall? Thank you!
@@demiloren1915 a humid hide would be fine but you can pour a little water on the paper towel. You just don't want the snake sitting on a soaking wet area at all times but a bit of water on a portion of the paper towel is fine.
Hey ive got a question about weight. What do you consider to be a healthy safe qeight for a male or female. And do you concern yourself more with how the snake looks ,body condition or how much it weighs, compared to its length, and age?
Hey Bob have a question for you, just wanting to know when you're feeding how long do you wait before you feed the same snake it's second mouse? I feed my ball two mice every Monday by 6pm est. But how long should I wait between the first mouse to the second one? Is 5-10 mins to soon or is that okay?
I only feed two prey items if I've run out of the size they normally would eat. I always recommend feeding one appropriately sized prey item... But if you're going to feed two, just wait until the snake has moved the first one into its belly and then offer the second.
I'm new to your channel, seen you on Snake Discovery. why don't you put a rough enrichment (small rough item like rock) for help starting the shedding process? I'm curious 😂 really enjoying your channel and hope you get to go to the 2024 build off. I heard you might get a opportunity
Majority of the pastel I’ve seen online, and my own previously owned Pastel BP was a hisser and striker. Makes me wonder if it’s something particular to their morph…
Pastel is probably the most common morph. Most of mine have been very calm. There's not really any morph in ball pythons that has been proven to affect personality at this point
I have a question, i have a 5-6 month old corn snake shes 17inches long. But when ever i pick her up or try to get her socialized, i can she visible breathing which means that shes scared or stressed. But how do i get her to trust me?
I have a number of videos on snake socialization that will help you, but this is normal snake behavior. You'll need to have a lot of patience because it takes much longer than one week to socialize a snake. Most of my socialization techniques don't involve handling so make sure you watch those videos and you'll be on the right track... Lots of patience though :-)
When you open their enclosure and see them breathing heavy, that's just a sign that they're a little bit on edge and nervous. You'll be able to tell that they are relaxing and settling in once they're breathing slows a bit
So we've got THREE baby snakes...i believe theyre babies. My purple passion is almost 6 months. Orange dream banana het clown is 4-5 months and an albino lavender corn snake (super fast, a little creepy. Lol)I have SO MANY QUESTIONS! Im only a mana to "sable the stallion" bc of my son...she was a gift from him and im in love. learning as i go. Thank you so much for the videos! What do you suggest as light/heating options? I have a 20 gal tank with a nice big hide, some 'leaves and vines' and her water bowl/Jacuzzi. I have an overhead flukers lamp with a 100w bulb that projects light and heat and also a 75w one that doesnt light up..only heat. I have been alternating. Id love to know what you suggest! Thanks a billion!!
You should definitely check out the most recent full length video I posted last Monday. Also make sure you watch my ball python care guide. That will help you with a lot of these questions
As a person thats grown up from 5yo with multiple snakes ranging from ball pythons to kingsnakes and ratsnakes of different species and different types of boas. Im not a big fan of ball pythons im more of a boa person myself weither it be tree or regular boas. I love the banana ball pythons i have a banana pied and shes absolutely a dream snake. Perfect attitude beautiful pattern and color. MY first snake after moving out of my parents. All around great snake.
Some individuals might do fine in a cage that size but it depends on their size and their activity level. I always recommend a 4-ft cage because that will generally work for most adult ball pythons.
Love the video! I am curious what you saw that made you say “ohh, he’s ready to poop” when you were handling your holdback🧐 But helpful content, as always! Sometimes it’s really nice to just get a look at all the little in-between stuff! Like you wiping the containers out, or the way you place the snakes in the play pen! Or the tid-bit about helping their shed with a few drops of water. Thanks for everything, Bob!! 🐍😌
The baby python party going on there in your play pen is just the cutest thing i have seen all day today.. loved that
Python party in the playpen! Sounds like the best party ever 🥺🤣

Yea! A new video from Bob!
Playpen full of baby BP #winning. That 1st banana and that calico are gorgeous. My next one is either going to be banana or pied.
Those are great choices!
aww baby snakes .yes that playpen be a positive out of tub experience ..not shure if I told you but I got a enclosure coming nxt week finally 🐍😘

Nice vid, cause I know very little about baby snakes

Almost all my snakes first meal is frozen thawed. If they refuse three or four times, I switched to live
Hey Bob, thanks for the video. What baby rack are you using there?
I don't remember which one that is. It's either Cserpents or Black Box Cages
@@GreenRoomPythons ok thank you
I'm new to your channel, seen you on Snake Discovery. why don't you put a rough enrichment (small rough item like rock) for help starting the shedding process? I'm curious 😂 really enjoying your channel and hope you get to go to the 2024 build off. I heard you might get a opportunity
I'm glad you're enjoying the channel! Their water dishes heavy ceramic and they work great for helping with shed
Thanks!
Where do you get your hatchling tubs at?
Majority of the pastel I’ve seen online, and my own previously owned Pastel BP was a hisser and striker. Makes me wonder if it’s something particular to their morph…
Pastel is probably the most common morph. Most of mine have been very calm. There's not really any morph in ball pythons that has been proven to affect personality at this point
Question, how much $ for 15 minutes in the baby ball python play pen?
I have a question, i have a 5-6 month old corn snake shes 17inches long. But when ever i pick her up or try to get her socialized, i can she visible breathing which means that shes scared or stressed. But how do i get her to trust me?
She doesnt strike at me she just trys to get away ive been trying too get her to know that im nit dangerous for about a week
I have a number of videos on snake socialization that will help you, but this is normal snake behavior. You'll need to have a lot of patience because it takes much longer than one week to socialize a snake. Most of my socialization techniques don't involve handling so make sure you watch those videos and you'll be on the right track... Lots of patience though :-)
I really like the normal ball python the most
She's a really pretty snake!
is it normal to notice a baby ball pythons breathing, do they regularly breathe heavy?
When you open their enclosure and see them breathing heavy, that's just a sign that they're a little bit on edge and nervous. You'll be able to tell that they are relaxing and settling in once they're breathing slows a bit
You are a legend 🐍
You are so awesome, I wish you did boas too ❤ so informative and such a great person.
Thank you so much, I appreciate the kind words! I do have a boa and there will be more boa content in the future :-)
@GreenRoomPythons Hooray!! ♡ Going to binge watch to find it haha.
I found him!! Handsome Dan!!
@@mariahsart that's him! 😉
So we've got THREE baby snakes...i believe theyre babies. My purple passion is almost 6 months. Orange dream banana het clown is 4-5 months and an albino lavender corn snake (super fast, a little creepy. Lol)I have SO MANY QUESTIONS! Im only a mana to "sable the stallion" bc of my son...she was a gift from him and im in love. learning as i go. Thank you so much for the videos! What do you suggest as light/heating options? I have a 20 gal tank with a nice big hide, some 'leaves and vines' and her water bowl/Jacuzzi. I have an overhead flukers lamp with a 100w bulb that projects light and heat and also a 75w one that doesnt light up..only heat. I have been alternating. Id love to know what you suggest! Thanks a billion!!
You should definitely check out the most recent full length video I posted last Monday. Also make sure you watch my ball python care guide. That will help you with a lot of these questions
As a person thats grown up from 5yo with multiple snakes ranging from ball pythons to kingsnakes and ratsnakes of different species and different types of boas. Im not a big fan of ball pythons im more of a boa person myself weither it be tree or regular boas. I love the banana ball pythons i have a banana pied and shes absolutely a dream snake. Perfect attitude beautiful pattern and color. MY first snake after moving out of my parents. All around great snake.
If you actually watch them they just act like the others aren't even there.😂
Yep, they just kind of ignore one another
I want to join your patreon but you saysay it so fast tat I cant get the link
It's linked in the description of the video, patreon.com/greenroompythons :-)
@GreenRoomPythons thank you I'm now a patreon love watching you
@@carlanichols6361 thanks so much, welcome to patreon!
Love this video ❤
How often do you clean
I spot clean everyday. Enclosures get complete clean outs about every 4 to 6 weeks
Would 3x2x2 be good for a average sized adult male ball python?
I can’t have 4x2x2 because it will take one third of my room😅
Some individuals might do fine in a cage that size but it depends on their size and their activity level. I always recommend a 4-ft cage because that will generally work for most adult ball pythons.
This was a fun video. They’re all so cute! Someday I’m going to actually touch a snake.
Amazing ,,,,, Great content bro '
Do they also need to eat more often than Adults?
Yes, babies get fed about once a week vs once every two weeks for a mature adult
Was that a yawn at about 4:18 or so? 🙂
Probably, they are sleepy buggers
Its so curious how some snakes are so timid right out of the egg. Especially ball pythons. They are some of the most mellow snakes in general.
What happens if my snake is not a baby do I still have to put it on a piece of paper
If you're getting a new snake it's good to have them on paper for the first 30 days so you can look for mites
Ok I might be asking a lot of questions in different videos because I don’t know alot about snakes
@@Wildanimal2203 I have videos on probably just about any question you could ask so it just takes a little bit of time of going through videos :-)
For how long do you consider them babies? Until what age?
I don't really think about it, but maybe under a year
6:00 lol in bottom middle tub the snake
Love the video! I am curious what you saw that made you say “ohh, he’s ready to poop” when you were handling your holdback🧐
But helpful content, as always! Sometimes it’s really nice to just get a look at all the little in-between stuff! Like you wiping the containers out, or the way you place the snakes in the play pen! Or the tid-bit about helping their shed with a few drops of water. Thanks for everything, Bob!! 🐍😌
Just lots of thickness at their tail end :-)
