Reticulated ball pythons (Python reticulatus) aren't for new snake owners. They average about 15 feet long when grown and can be pretty aggressive. Regular ball pythons (Python regius) are better.

These pythons can grow over 33 feet, are very skilled climbers, and they can eat things ranging from mice to pigs, depending on the size of the snake.

Reticulated ball pythons are native Asian reptiles. They can grow up to 30 feet and weigh in excess of 300 pounds. They are considered a dangerous animal and they are not considered to be a pet for amateurs. They can live 20 to 30 years in captivity, so they are considered to be a long term investment in care.
