hi my name is tor and iam thinking of getting a ball python.
one of my questions are, is it true that pythons dont like 2 much space. i keep getting told different things! wat would b an ideal size for a baby ball python? i have a 4 foot viv and some people are telling me the bigger the better but some are saying it is way too big and to go and buy a plastic box 1foot by 2foot and the python can live in there for life!!! also do pythons need heat from above and below? anyway thank u and i will hope to hear from u!!!

A 4' viv is larger than an adult Royal would require/want let alone a baby.
