About

Hi! Im Acacia!
Residing in New Hampshire, I am a long time Ball Python keeper and am absolutely in love with the species. I also have many years working in the exotic animal industry, as well as veterinary experience. I plan to keep my collection small as I want to ensure optimal care and attention for all of my pythons, I also operate other non-animal related businesses.

My breeding goals are simple and straightforward. To create snakes that are not only mentally and physically healthy, as well as visually striking with exceptional color retention, but also to create and raise offspring with ideal behavior characteristics, adaptability, feeding reliability, and good stress management. All my breeders are carefully selected to reflect that goal.
This means any snake that exhibits qualities such as aggression, defensiveness, extreme fear, avoidance, poor feeding habits long term, or frequent signs of stress to normal stimuli will not be used a breeders regardless of their appearance. I also work on enrichment and handling as I raise my pythons, ideally making them better suited to various living situations.

Bear with me as I am new to this platform and this process.
More information and updates will be provided on my Instagram and Youtube channel in the near future if you would like to learn more. Thanks and have a lovely day!

Store Policy

(FREE SHIPPING WITH ANY ORDER TOTALING OVER $500.00)
MY GUARENTEE:
-Any photos and information provided will be accurate and true to the animal in question. You will get exactly what you see.
-All questions will be answered honestly and thoroughly to the best of my ability. Current photos, weights, feeding, and welfare updates are always available upon request. No question is a "dumb" question.
-Animals will arrive healthy and in excellent condition. If for whatever reason a snake is struggling, I will communicate that and work to ensure it thrives before and after you receive it. If for whatever reason an animal does not arrive alive or in good health, I will immediately find a resolution within reason, and in keeping with the purchasers wishes. This includes possible returns/ refunds/ and replacements.(See Below)
-I continue to be available after purchase to answer questions and help your new Ball Python grow and adjust. I want you to succeed. I'm here if you need me.

MY PROJECTS POLICY:
-As a personal choice I will not breed any morphs/genetics that are well known to have or cause neurological, developmental, or physical ailments, deformities, or limitations.
>This includes but is not limited to; Spider, Champagne, Womas, Spotnose, Black Pastel, Cinnamon, Caramel Albino, Desert, Scaleless/Scaleless Head, etc...
(This is not a proclamation that it is always problematic for some breeders to work with these genes, provided they are doing it responsibly and selectively. It is just more risk and complication than I choose to deal with.)
-I focus on genes that are not only visually striking, but also have superior color retention regardless of dollar value. For this reason I also choose breeders that are prime examples of their morph with the goal of selectively line breeding/improving the quality of individual genes.
In keeping with this philosophy, I choose not to work with genes that dramatically change or lose substantial color/pattern intensity over time, such as Clown.(Note: there is no other inherent issues with such morphs, its just outside of my personal objectives.)
-When possible, I will selectively breed for personality and mental fortitude, in addition to appearance. More mild tempered and "social" snakes will be far more likely to be selected as breeders. As well as those that respond well to handling and socialization while continuing to eat, breed, shed, and grow normally.
-In addition, hatchlings will be socialized and enriched from the time they take their first meal until they leave for their new home to better prepare them for whatever stimuli they may encounter. This helps ensure your new snake will adapt more easily to the new environment and be a more pleasant and happy pet, or a more tolerant bullet-proof breeder.

PAYMENT PLANS:
-Payment plans are permissible for any snake over $125.00(Minimum Deposit)
Structure is as follows:
The buyer may choose to pay either $125.00 Weekly, $250.00 Bi-Weekly, or $500.00 Monthly.
(Deposits and all payments after are non refundable [in the event that your snake arrives alive, in good apparent health, and does not test positive for any disease.] Simply changing your mind mid PP does not constitute a refund. Structure amounts are absolute minimums until animal is paid off baring any extreme circumstances, otherwise sale is forfeit. [Sorry if this seems extreme, This is to protect me, discourage scamming, and encourage only serious/ready buyers to make deposits.])
-I am equipped and ready to accept payment through this platform, or card payments with the PayPal POS system, however I am possibly willing to setup a different payment method if this poses a problem.

DISEASE TESTING:
(I support disease testing and conduct my own series of tests)
There are multiple options to ensure the animal you purchase is free of illness.
They are as follows:
- Pay a non-refundable fee to receive current testing results in writing before shipping.
- Conduct your own test upon intake at your expense. You will have 7 days after your snake arrives to do this and report the results. (Copies from the lab will need to be sent to me for any positive result.)
(In the event of a positive result, you can choose to Either;)
-Keep/treat the animal yourself (No refund).
-Euthanize yourself. (Full refund for the cost of the snake [after proof of euthanasia is provided], but not the cost of euthanasia or self testing.)
-Or return ship at your expense.(Full refund for the cost of the snake upon arrival, or a replacement animal.)
