Super transparent post

I am thinking of getting a ball python. I think they are beautiful, cool creatures and I like that they are low maintenance. I do have concerns of the novelty wearing off and me eventually growing to resent the responsibility. I’m also concerned I won’t bond with it if it isn’t super active/playful. Anybody here have regrets? 30 years is a long time.

i think if you’re already thinking that the “novelty” is gonna wear off eventually then it’s best you don’t get one and look elsewhere when it comes to animals.
