My new ball python.
Hey Imgur, this is my new snake! Please offer advice for proper substrate. I'm getting mixed opinions, so someone with experience please help me out. No negative comments, please. Have a great day, everyone!

Paper towel for a new youngster. As adults, I use a mixture of coco fiber and reptile bark. Paper towel is great though

Now take off your shirt, put snake on shoulders, and walk around town. The chicks will be all over you

But it's wrapped around your hand, not your ball.

I was gonna make a python ball as a witty comment but then I remembered, I only have MS paint
runningawaynow
But you can have a python and balls at the same time

So do you inflate it, or does it grow into a ball?

For a new snake plain white paper towel is best (lets you see any mites or oddities in waste).

Thanks for your help.

Also a good idea to get him in a room temperature water bath (add a couple of veg oil) to help get that stuck shed off.

Substrate?

Ah. I should've skipped organic chemistry and taken herpetological chem instead.
TheGooseKnowsBest
Yes, totally different kind of substrate!
