I wouldn't buy one in the first place, I'd adopt. There are so many unwanted balls at reptile rescues. Besides the obvious moral aspect, balls rescued from a true center are usually vet-checked, wormed, and feeding. You can choose any size, and adoption fees are often much less than retail price. Sometimes you can get free supplies that were surrendered with the animal. Same applies to iguanas, savs, leos, burms, etc. Just my 2 cents anyway.
