I have fallen in love...

I went to my local petsmart (yea I know great place ain't it) to get some crickets and I stopped by the reptiles. They had this poor ball python that was huge compared to the ones they normally have who had been there for 7 months :( She was in a cage no bigger than a 5 gallon tank with a hide that was way too small. her temps were about 88 through the whole tank. I didn't get a chance to hold her but she looked fine and I saw her papers that said she was eating fine. There was no stuck shed or anything. Idk I love all my snakes but there is something about this one that is just drawing me in, I am debating about getting her. I am headed back up there to see if they will let me handle her to see if I really want her. I have to discuss it with my boyfriend first so I can't jump the gun and just buy her.

After my last experience with getting snakes from petsmart I really didn't want to get another from them but there is something about her...

I just needed to get this off my chest since none of my friends are into reptiles like I am lol

Do it...and then post pictures. :D

Oh what's one more :), get her as a surpise gift for the bf ;)

You know you want to, and she deserves better than what she'll get from Petsmart...............and yes pics :P

If you are like me, you will hate yourself later if you don't go back and get her.

For instance, my beloved beagle mix was from a puppy mill I got suckered into driving 4 hours to get to. Lord knows I didn't want to give the woman any of my money after I saw what the place was, but I would never have forgiven myself if I left him there. I justified it by calling the cops on her when I got home with my new puppy.

So I'll be expecting pictures later tonight. ;)

That's how I ended up with my little female bp.
She was in a small display with the substrate all soaked from a spilled water dish and a hide so small she lifted it completely off the substrate by balling up inside it.

I "rescued" my BP from PetSmart. It was sharing a 5-10 gallon tank with a 9 month old. They were "sharing" a half-log hide. They were also feeding him pinkies.:colbert:
