BALL lol
They’re actually called Royal Pythons because of Cleopatra’s penchant for wearing them as “jewelry”.
“Ball Python” is from their courageous habit of literally balling up with their head tucked under themselves and just sitting there as a self defense mechanism.
The color combinations of BP morphs seems to be limitless and they are quite beautiful.
Sort of like God’s mega box of reptile crayons.
ALL of these incredible colors came from boring brown and black snakes captured in their home country.

If Mendel had had these guys, we wouldn’t get so excited about mutant peas.
