Awesome! Do you know anywhere online you can find a good care sheet for them?
Good (complete) care sheets can be somewhat hard to come by. The best will be found for Children's Pythons, a species closely related to Spotteds. Until recently all Anteresia (spotted are Anteresia maculosa, Children's are Anteresia childreni) were referred to as Children's pythons so many care sheets are under that name.
Their care is quite similar to corns. Spotted pythons will reach 3-5 feet at maturity, with most of that being reached in the first 2 years in captivity. They are much lighter bodied than a ball or blood python, with a body type more like that of a carpet python. As an adult smaller individuals should be fine in the same type of caging as a corn, with larger individuals potentially needing a 40 breeder.
They can be a bit difficult to get started on mice as babies but do well on that diet once started and can usually be fed FT with few issues. My first spotted converted to FT from live without a hitch. They are less picky eaters than ball pythons and should be fine on mice for their entire life in most cases (babies are similar in size to baby corns and will start on pinkie mice or even pinkie heads).
Mine seem fine on aspen but do not burrow under it. Their heat requirements are similar to corns but I've found they do a bit better with back heat than belly heat since they don't burrow under the substrate. Mine absolutely loves his toilet roll hides and spends a lot of time on the warm side.
They aren't very expensive. Hatchlings ranged from $40-$90 at Daytona (I paid $50 for the normal and $75 for the granite) and adults were $100-140. They are a little difficult to find though, since they are no where near as popular as something like balls or boas. I saw about 6 or so different sellers with them at Daytona.
As babies they can be nippy but most adults will settle down and be pretty laid back. My older one is ~75g now and is great with handling.
Probably more than you wanted to know! Oh well.
