Welcome to Ball Python Cafe
We specialize in producing healthy, captive-bred ball pythons! 'Little bundles of awesome!!' |
The Ball Python Cafe Story-
When we began caring for ball pythons 15 years ago, we mixed our love for ball pythons with our love for fine coffees. All of our ball python breeders are named after one of our favorite coffees, flavors or blends. I would like to make everyone aware that although there may be a ball python 'morph' named after a coffee, our breeder ball pythons' names have nothing to do with their 'morph' type.
All of our breeder ball pythons are captive bred, do not bite and are not aggressive. We don't want aggressive pets just like you don't. This is one of the many reasons we chose ball pythons as pets. Besides our love for reptiles and amphibians in general, ball pythons are, if properly cared for, docile as a puppy, extremely forgiving to beginning snake owners, do not grow past 5-6 feet as adults, and are very rewarding to own personally and a very good pet to share each others life with. However, ball pythons do have very tiny teeth and the 1# rule of animals is still applicable: "if it has teeth, it can bite". Some of you have had little brothers or sisters that prove this rule to be true. Ball pythons are also sometimes picky eaters and can go off feed when they choose to, all normal and healthy, which frustrates some owners. Please check our Ball Python care sheet to get very important information on the proper care of ball pythons and what to expect -good and bad. We are very active in our local herp society and want to spread good information about ball python care and set accurate expectations. We want you to make an educated decision to purchase and commit to the care of your ball python for its lifetime. Please do your homework before making a purchase!
We pride ourselves in producing healthy, quality ball python babies, 'lil bundles of awesome', with fantastic customer service before and after the sale.
We strive to make each and every ball python purchase with us as smooth and enjoyable as possible for both you and the ball python.

Breeding season!!! BREEDING SEASON! (jumping around in a lunatic dance) Okay maybe I am a little too excited but its sooo cool to see new eggs. Maye today..maybe tomorrow... its like a very cool Easter egg hunt. Except that the eggs aren't colored, the babies are inside!! A short 55 days later, beautiful little heads pip out of the eggs!!! And that beautiful baby ball python could be yours!! So exciting! We have all kinds of good stuff planned! Pieds, VPI axanthics and albinos, of course. Also some new morphs added to the mix! So keep checking out what we have. Also look at the growing babies we still have for sale right now. They are growing babies but sometimes a little bigger means significantly calmer, so maybe that's exactly what you're looking for at just the right price! Thank you all for your patronage and loyalty!

Only a few days left in the sale! Still a lot of babies to choose from at great prices. If you see a breeder with lower shipping costs, they are either closer to you or what they are really doing is passing the same shipping cost onto you in the price of your baby ball python! I give you the cost I get directly from Fedex. If you live close enough to pick up your ball python, you are welcome to pick up your baby at our location. If you are interested at all in a ball python from us, you need to order soon...temperatures are dropping and soon I wont be able to ship. So get your beautiful ball pythons now while they are on sale and I can get them to you overnight!

We are having a Christmas sale just like we have every year! Lots of babies to choose from are now ON SALE! Hope you find them as beautiful as I do!
October 1, 2014
I'm going to start putting pictures of up of some adults I have for sale. Due to their size, I'd rather not ship them. For now local sales only on adult ball pythons. Baby ball pythons can always be shipped. Thank you as always for your patronage!
September 24, 2014
Lots of baby ball pythons just posted for sale. Ive restructured our pricing structure which I hope you all will like! We have been having a hard time getting the surplus rats we need this time of year. There just aren't any out there locally! So while we breed enough rats ourselves to keep our ball pythons healthy, some aren't too happy about not getting all they want. So if your baby hisses or even snaps at you when it arrives, its harmless and will go away quickly when you feed them several times. I'm telling you this because I believe in honesty, but make no mistake our babies are healthy -very healthy, or I wouldn't sell them! We still have some fires coming and some VPI axanthics coming as well. They are at about two meals away from being posted for sale -so about two weeks!
September 17, 2014
Been awhile but the babies have been growing hardy and strong! Big update coming to the website in the next few days. Many babies for sale will be posted at very good prices! I hope you think the babies are as beautiful as I do!

Well, today the AC went out in my home. Snakes are fine they have their own bldg and everything is fine there. However, I need to pay for AC repairs so I'm willing to make some deals I probably wouldn't normally make. So if you see something you are interested in, give me a call and we can talk. Thanks so much for y'alls continued support!
April 21, 2014
Today starts a huge sale for us and for you! I have too many (is there such a thing?) eggs in the incubator and not enough baby rack space! So I've taken $50 off any Fires and any Pieds we have for sale! Also, if you call me and pick a male and a female pair of either het hypos or het albinos, I will sell you the pair for just $100! These deals wont last too long so now is the time!
February 11, 2014
Well today is a great day for two reasons; (1) I'm going to post some beautiful girls Ive been holding back, and (2) I'm going to end the Christmas sale that I should have ended a long time ago. LOL These hold back girls are girls that are the pick of the clutches, that I originally wanted to keep but have to let go, and have put on almost a years worth of weight. So someone is going to get these beauties and reap what I have sewn. Oh well.. life goes on. Better get em fast while they last.
January 8, 2014
Im going to continue the sale for just another few days. So please get your orders in on the Hets/Possible Hets and normal baby ball pythons. Im going to change the prices back in the next few days without warning so if you want the sale price, please order now. Hope everyone is having a great New Year!
December 25, 2013
Continuing our Christmas sale! Please take advantage of it. In the next few days I will be posting even more healthy baby ball pythons that are ready to go home with you. Some shipping should be possible soon as well as weather allows! Merry Christmas to all!
December 11, 2013
Christmas Sale! All December! We have a few beautiful normal ball pythons left for sale that we are going to continue to sell at the November sale price! Also, I'm going to take $30 off the price of any 100% Het ball python babies we have for sale. This is just through December so get em quick! Happy Holidays!
November 25, 2013
I have a few baby ball pythons that are ready for sale but I cant quite tell whether the combos hit or not, so since I guarantee the genetics, sex and health of all my baby ball pythons, I will be selling them at single morph prices! If you do get a combo out of it, Ill cry, do a lot of soul searching and then settle on the positive fact that I have made some new VERY happy customers! I have this issue with two clutches this year - calico to a spider (possible caliders) - and fire to a cinnamon (possible firemons). One thing is for certain that if you don't get the combo, you are getting amazingly beautiful baby ball pythons!
November 4, 2013
November Sale! 15$ off any normal baby ball python for sale. That means boys are $20 and girls are $30 just for this month. If they are up for sale in the available section means they are 100% ready to go home with you today. They have shed, eaten four meals on their own without assistance, and have pooped. Everything is working well. These ball python babies are guaranteed to be thriving, not just out of the egg like some other places. Shipping is still extra folks.
October 18, 2013
Hi all! Hasn't been much activity on here for a bit while ball python babies have been growing! Time for that to change!
I have several new babies ready to go so please check out the Available section. We also wanted to update the breeder section and that was a whole bunch of fun trying to corral our girls and boys for pictures.They wanted nothing to do with it! LOL They are gorgeous, you'd think they would be more accommodating! But as you can see by all the additions we have grown quite a bit this year!

There have been a few new changes happening here at Ball Python Cafe that I want to make everyone aware of.
First and probably most important, baby ball pythons are not going to be posted for sale anymore until they are ready to go home with you. Most of you know how we really pride ourselves in making absolutely sure that a baby is 100% healthy and thriving before it leaves here. We, ourselves, have been sold babies that died on us once we got it home, got attached, and it sucks! We have put a process in place here from the start to make sure that same scenario never happens with one of our babies sold to you. However, a short while back I had to let a customer know that a baby, they had placed a deposit on, had passed away here. I know a ton of tricks to get them eating, I assist fed, even force fed when all else failed, but the baby ball python still passed away. This happens from time to time and its nature. However, when I told them the bad news about the baby ball python, it was apparent to me that they were already very attached to the baby, hurt the family, ruined their day, etc. and that is exactly the pain we are trying to avoid here. So Ive changed things here and we'll see how it goes. I wont post the babies pics until they are 100% healthy and ready to go home with you. You may ask what ball pythons I have coming available soon and I'll tell you however I'm not going to send pics and set up a deal ahead of time. I hope you understand.
Second, Ive started a new referral program that our buyers can take advantage of. If you have purchased ball pythons from us before, you know you immediately get a discount on your future ball python purchases automatically. You now have the ability to add an additional, one time 5% discount to your next purchase, by referring someone to us. Your referral needs to name you as the referral at the time of purchase, has to spend over 100$ on ball python(s), and the deal has to be complete prior to you being able to use the additional 5% discount. Max discount on any purchase is 15%. I hope this helps some of you that spread our name so graciously to your friends. We sincerely appreciate it! Thank you!

The baby ball pythons are sooo gorgeous! Im very proud!!
May 5, 2013
Today was a great day and found 4 eggs under Donuts (our piebald female ball python)! The sire is Duncan (our piebald male ball python) and if I do my genetic math correctly, this means we will have four baby piebalds (pieds) in two months!
April 30, 2013
We are on our 5th clutch of the year so far! All safe in the incubator. VPI Axanthics, Enchis, Het Albinos, Bumblebees, Pastels, Spiders and of course some beautiful normal babies are waiting to come out of the egg!

Well its about time we get this site updated with all the action that has been going on. We have a beautiful clutch of Yellowbellies taking their first meals now. Most of the yellowbellies from the clutch are male. However we have one absolutely stunning female Ivory from the clutch that its gonna hurt to let go of. She is so gorgeous!! Our first super morph - ah...savor it!!! I will have pictures of all the beautiful ball python babies up shortly so you can put your deposits in on your favorite(s). We were also pleasantly surprised by a late clutch from Hawaiian (bumblebee boy) with Hazelnut (mojave girl). Those eggs are due to hatch at Christmas time!! We are very excited to hatch our first possible triple morph ball python baby. Fingers crossed! I still have one lone male het VPI axanthic baby for sale, an adult spider, and one or two normal ball python boys. So please contact us if you have interest in any of these as they will probably go quick as they usually do around Christmas time. ZOOM! As always, thanks for your patronage. We are here for you.
