Amir's Story

Intake date: 7/17/25 Status: Available Amir is a young ball python who was transferred to us from Wake County Animal Center. He has a good appetite and eats F/T mice. He is still nervous being handled as he is a baby, but is friendly His adoption fee is $50. Caitlyn will require a minimum 30" x 12" x 12" enclosure right now. **We do NOT recommend glass tanks/aquariums for ball pythons due to humidity issues. While they can be appropriately modified, this is not easy for a beginner keeper and we have seen repeated issues with stuck shed and anorexia. Please check out our care guide for alternative housing methods--we recommend PVC cages and appropriate bin setups.** PLEASE READ! If you are interested in adopting this animal, you need to fill out an application at https://bewildnc.org/apply/. Read the application carefully and answer the questions thoroughly. Above all, be honest! Research the species you would like to adopt in advance and consult multiple sources, we are happy to answer questions.
