Boo aka Baby Boo #8362

Hi there — my name is Boo (or Baby Boo, if you like!) 🐍💛, and I’m ready to find my forever home in 2026.<br/><br/>I’m a gentle, calm, and affectionate ball python who loves warmth, comfort, and a little quiet time exploring my space.<br/><br/>My story began in a less-than-ideal way. I was bought as a baby from a pet store, but when my first family moved out of state, I was sadly left behind. Thankfully, some kind humans made sure I was safe and brought me to rescue, where I’ve been thriving in a cozy foster home ever since. I’ve grown into a calm, steady little snake with just the right amount of curiosity — and I’ve earned the nickname “Baby Boo” for my gentle personality.<br/><br/>I’m a classic ball python in many ways, but my clear patterns and soft colors might give me a little “sparkle” — my foster family thinks I might have a hint of blade or yellow belly in my lineage. Most of my day, you’ll find me tucked into my favorite hide, but I love coming out in the evenings (and sometimes mornings!) to explore. I especially enjoy burrowing into fresh sphagnum moss — it keeps me comfy and helps me shed beautifully!<br/><br/>✨ Ball Python – Species & Personality Facts ✨<br/>• Typically grow to 3–5 feet as adults<br/>• Lifespan: 30–40 years in captivity with proper care<br/>• Calm, gentle, and easy to handle — perfect for a responsible keeper<br/>• Primarily nocturnal — most active in the evenings and nights<br/>• Curl into a tight “ball” when unsure, which is where our name comes from<br/>• Love hides and burrows, which helps me feel safe and secure<br/><br/>🏠 Husbandry & Enclosure Requirements 🏠 (The rescue will help guide you)<br/>• Minimum enclosure size: 4 feet long × 2 feet wide × 2 feet tall (bigger is always better)<br/>• Front-opening enclosures are ideal for reducing stress with a screen top to manage<br/>• Temperature gradient: warm side 88–92°F, cool side 78–80°F<br/>• Humidity: moderate, with access to a water bowl for soaking<br/>• Multiple hides help me feel safe and secure<br/>• Simple, naturalistic décor works best — function over clutter<br/><br/>🐍 I’m looking for a human who:<br/>• Can provide safe, thermostat-controlled heat 🔥<br/>• Knows (or wants to learn) proper ball python care, including temperature, humidity, and safe handling<br/>• Can give me time to settle in — 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to build trust, and 3 months to feel at home truly ⏳<br/><br/>I’m calm, steady, and ready to bring a little peace and gentle charm into the right home.
