I recently got a rescue through craigs list. They were asking 100 bucks for it, but when I offered to take it for free, and love it, they agreed.

Got the snake, and it is a beautiful reduced girl. 2 layers of old stuck shed... and eye caps. But other then that, she was fine.

This is what I don't get tho.... while it does not look fat, it certainly does not look thin either. They claimed that they had it for more then 3 years.... BUT she is only 531 grams!!!!!!!!!!!

They had it in the wrong kind of tank so the humidity was way off... and they were using too small of a UTH... so the temps were no doubt totally out of whack.

But how can a 4 year old female ball python only weigh 531 grams and not look underweight???? Are they lying about how long they have had her? why would they do that??? I just don't understand...
