Pythons
Pythons are a family of non-venomous snakes that are native to Africa, Asia and Australia. Pythons are ambush predators that use constriction to kill their prey. Unlike female boas, female pythons lay eggs. Pythons are hunted for their skin, which is used, like leather, to make shoes, handbags and other fashion accessories.

Can a ball python eat vegetables?
A ball python is usually 2-4 feet long with some exceptions that get 5-6 feet. I am sure there as been an occasion or two where a ball python as eaten another ball python but I have not ever heard of it (I am a breeder). King snakes on the other hand will eat any other snakes (even ones bigger then themselves). However except for breeding purposes, Ball Pythons should not be housed in the same cage they are loners and can become stressed and stop eating when housed together.
They're possibly the 4th easiest snake to look after, followed by the corn snake, the king snake and the the milk snake.
Most pythons live in the dense underbrush of rugged tropical rainforest regions. They are excellent climbers; some species, like the Green Tree Python, are arboreal. Arboreal means to live in trees. = boomslang and green mamba also lives on trees and some boa species too.
How do royal pythons reproduce?
If you look at the underside of a snake near its tail, it has a small vertical slit. This is its vent. The cloaca (vent) is a genital and anal opening. Males have hemipenes, which means they have two penises. Likewise females have two receptive areas for the hemipenes. The male inserts the hemipenes into the female's cloaca and ejaculates. Females can store sperm for over a year.

Why do ball pythons eat humans?
Royal pythons - from their Latin name Python regius - are well-known for their 'random' food fasts. Some of the specimens I've had over the last 25-plus years have gone almost a year without food - despite it being offered on a regular basis (even changing the food to a different rodent failed !)
So long as your python isn't losing massive amounts of weight, and is still drinking water, it should be okay. Keep offering food at your usual intervals (weekly, bi-weekly etc). It wouldn't hurt to get it checked out by a vet - to rule out a medical problem (such as internal parasites etc).
What kinds of adaptations do pythons have?
Some species have heat sensing reactors on their jaws. These help them seek their prey which is normally warm-blooded, like mammals and birds.

What type of birds do pythons eat?

How often do ball pythons shed their skin?
It varies greatly - according to the species and age of the snake. A baby corn snake, for example, will shed every 10 weeks or so - as it's got lots of growing to do. By contrast, an adult Burmese Python may only shed once every two years.
If you think they are, that's what you think. I personally don't think they are dumb but its right for people to think whatever they want to think.
