New mojave Girl

[RoyalGuardian]

So My friend and I are looking at these two mojave babies and the dude is selling them before they shed and have established eating. I was wondering if it is hard to get baby snakes to eat. if it just takes time I have it and I am willing to do what ever it takes. . do you all think we should look somewhere else? We are all ready for our babies we are just trying to find some that arnt too much... what is usually the lowest amout for a female Mojave?

I wouldn't go for it. Generally they should be fed about 6 times before being sold. Correct me if i am wrong. That's just what I recall.

Generally I want at least 2-4 feedings before I buy one. I have bought newly hatched ones, and gotten them feeding. I think you should probably look at the price and think about what you think of it if the baby refuses to eat and dies.
If you have experiance starting baby ball pythons, then it's probably okay, if you have no experiance with it, I'd pass.
Just my own opinion.

I saw the ad.
He is not really discounting them very much considering he mentions you need to be experienced with force feeding.
Sounds to me like he is trying to unload problem babies for slightly less than what extablished feeders are selling for.
