Hades the Black Head Orange Dream Ball Python

🐍🔥 Meet Hades the Black Head Orange Dream Ball Python! 🔥🐍
 
Hades came to J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue on September 25, 2025, after his previous owner could no longer care for him due to financial reasons. This 2-year-old male is about 3 feet long and currently eating frozen/thawed rats with no hesitation. 🐀❄️
 
True to his mythic name, Hades is striking and powerful—with the bold contrast of his Black Head gene and the radiant golden hues of Orange Dream. He’s calm, confident, and ready to reign over his next kingdom (or terrarium)! ⚡👑
