Was at the LPS today buying food for the kids when a gentleman and his wife struck up a conversation with my wife. Turns out the guy has about 10 snakes he wants to get rid of, just can't afford to house and feed them anymore. So me and the wife follow this couple about 15 miles out into the country to see what it is this guy has. He walks us to a wood shed out in the back yard and as he opens the door my arse opens up for the biggest turd of my life. They had an adult proven breeding pair of Snow red tailed boas, female 8'-9' and male the same. An adult female Anery red tail, 1 Super pastel ball python, yellow belly Ball python and a couple of other snakes as well as some of the babies of these snakes. They are all housed in assorted sized vision cages, the largest being the 6' long ones. Two Helix control boxes and a bunch of other goodies, decorations and wood. all of the snakes were clearly having problems shedding, hence all of the old skin still stuck on the snakes. (It might have something to do with them being housed outside
) The guy wants $600 dollars a piece for the baby snows but will take $2000.00 for EVERYTHING
. This guy has all the stuff that the average person with a tremendous passion for animals can't afford, for example ME. With this setup and animals me and the wifey will solve alot of our enclosure problems we currently have as well as be very well set up to start a red tail breeding program. I believe the red tail breeding will go well with the retic breeding we will be doing this year.
Just thought i'd share this crazy story with ya all

Wow, get em if you can!
what a situation
One very important point i must say
If your going to buy anything all thouse snakes must be housed in a diferent room then your other animals, the last thing you want is for some of thouse to have inclusion body desiase and to transmit such a bad thing to your loved pythons
