Meet Oogie Boogie CinnaRoll, affectionately known as "Cinn," who has been waiting for a forever home since September 6, 2022—over 370 days in rescue care, hoping for a chance to find a loving family. Cinn is a curious, adventurous ball python who measures about 2.5 feet long with a 5-inch circumference. Though a little shy at first, once Cinn warms up, they become a lively explorer, always eager to check out their surroundings. Because of this curiosity, Cinn needs a secure habitat—locks are a must, as they've been known to attempt the occasional escape! Cinn is a healthy, young snake with a big appetite and a love for evening adventures. As a nocturnal creature, Cinn spends most of the day snoozing in their hide, but come evening, they’re ready to socialize and explore. The rescue has seen this sweet snake’s personality shine once they’ve had time to adjust, becoming happy and curious in their new surroundings. Despite being on the smaller side now, Cinn is still growing and could reach up to 5 feet in length. With the right care—including a secure habitat, proper diet, and the ideal balance of temperature and humidity—Cinn could live a long, healthy life of up to 30 to 40 years. Don't worry, the rescue has all the information you will need to prepare for Cinns arrival. Cinn was found as a stray and has been in rescue care ever since, waiting patiently for someone to take them home. Could you be the one to finally offer Cinn the forever home they’ve been waiting for?

Quick Reference Guide

Animal Type
Snake
Breed
Ball Python
Introduction
Ball pythons, also known as the Royal Python, are a non-venomous, constrictor species native to the bushlands and savannas of Central and Western Africa. They are a medium-sized snake ranging from 3-6 feet. These snakes are crepuscular, which means that they are most active at night, but especially active around dawn and dusk. As ambush hunters, they actively track down and then wait for prey such as rodents, birds, and lizards to scurry past before striking. Ball pythons are sexually dimorphic, which means there is a noteworthy difference in size between males(smaller) and females (larger), but not as large in some other snake species. Ball pythons have a 15-30 year lifespan in captivity.

Temp Notes
The use of undertank heat mats with glass tanks or radiant heat panels as internal heaters for night heat, and cage guarded halogen/incandescent bulbs as day heat is preferred. Never install any heating device without plugging it into a thermostat and always securely wire the thermostat probe within the heating range of the device generating heat.

Carnivore
Diet Notes
Frozen thawed rodents in sizes equal to the girth of your snake at its center. Feeding frequency in general is 1 prey item fed in intervals coorisponding to the length in feet of your snake. A one foot snake would be fed weekly, a 4 foot snake every 4 weeks, etc. As ball pythons get larger their metabolism slows down. This is a guidleine, so adjust to the health of your specific snake to maintain a healthy weight.
