Garcia had just moved into the apartment a week ago and learned from neighbors that previous tenants kept snakes.
Ball pythons are one of the most popular snakes in the hobby and come from western Africa but are now widely captive bred. They grow to about five feet in length and can live for 30 years or more.
John Virata keeps a western hognose snake, a ball python, two corn snakes, a king snake, and two leopard geckos. His first snake, a California kingsnake, was purchased for $5. His first pet reptile was a green anole that arrived in a small box via mail order. Follow him on Twitter @johnvirata
