    Ads that make you go hmmm

    I was browsing a popular classifieds site (general, not just reptiles) and saw this ad....

    "these to have grown up together for the last 7 years. the were bought together as babies and have been buds ever since, living in the same cage.i would like to keep them together. they live in a 40 gal glass breeder reptile tank. it has duel heat lite for above and hot rox for below. i made a homemade screen top.

    they require a 150.00 re-home adoption fee for a loving home. my kids have handled these guys almost everday for 7 yrs. both are very friendly and were used in free shows at the local schools for 5 years. i have worked with reps for 40 yrs and you can be sure they are very healthy.

    ball- eats frozen rats or mice will take live if you want. this snake has never struck. about 3 ft and with small spurs. think is female

    skink; eats about anything fruits,cat food, worms chrickets small mice etc. she is very happy and never bit or tried. she has great lite colors."

    ... So this dude had a BP and a skink together in the same cage with heat rocks? Why not give Bin Laden the keys to the girls locker room and some plutonium?

    The thing that gets me is the 40 year reptile experience.

    I bet he works at a petco or another one of those well informed pet stores that only hire the most knowledgeable employees. I think someone should contact him and tell him about ball-pythons.net.Tell him how we need him to tell us all how to PROPERLY keep our reptiles together just like he does.

    I just think it's kinda sad that his children are also learning this way. Hopefully they'll be open to learning the correct way when they get around to doing it.
