I agree that a 20 gallon tank isn't big enough and they won't be very comportable in it but ball pythons don't get longer than 20 feet,the longest a female would get to would be 5 - 6 feet and a male would get to about 4 - 5 feet but that's rare! You could use a 30 gallon tank but the best would be a 40 gallon tank for a fully grown ball python!!
they can live up to 30 years if healthy enough
No - they are far too small a species.
No. A Burmese python can grow to 5-7 feet in their first year which already exceeds your ball python's TOTAL adult length.
The ROYAL Python (to give the correct name from its latin name of Python Regius) can grow to a length of up to 60 inches. ALL my adult specimens are well over 55 inches ! Incidentally - The Royal Python only got the tag of 'ball python' from its defensive posture of curling itself into a ball when threatened !
A white ball python could be any of the white pythons. Those are the Blue-Eyed Leucistic Ball Python, Ivory Ball Python, Hypo Ivory Ball Python and the Piebald Ball Python.
You should get an experience adult to pop your snake. Males have hemipenes and females just have a bulge. Check out the related link.
Your python may stay small but that is NOT good for a python to be in a small space. It leads to agression. You must get bigger tanks for your python as he grows, or just start with a large one.
i have a ball python of my own and it came from the pet store in.......i guess ,a 20 gallon tank and there were two other snakes in there with him . SO he, or she, should do fine : )
None. Ball python is the species. There are currently no recognized subspecies of ball python, either.
The ball python is only one type of Python. As I don't know which other type of python you're asking me to compare the ball python with I can't really answer your question...
Yes.
A pied bald python is a morph pattern found in Ball python that is being breed in captivety.
