Rear fangs

So i was at petsmart on monday and me and my friends went to look at there reptiles,we asked to hold there snakes,my friend held a con and i took a BP,a few min into holding her,i sexed her while i was there,and this lady walked up and was all "Oh a snake,what kind is it." i said it was a ball python,the worker whom was with us while we held the animals gave me a glare she then asked if they were venomous and i said no,the man then did the same thing and lastly the lady asked if they had fangs and before i could say anything the man said and i quote. "Yes,they have two rear fangs for killing there pray,nothing else while corn snakes don't have any teeth." I just gave the man a WTF look, now i know for a fact that BP have small teeth and im 99.9999% sure that they don't have fangs especially to kill,now i don't think i corrected him to the lady because i was caught off guard haha but after the women left the sales guy turns to me and was all. "I work here not you so it is my job to answer questions on you so don't try to be smart like you know everything." i just gave him back the snake and left.

also i went to petco that same day because it was across the street and saw these two teenage boys with a big brown box,turns out the caught a gopher snake from there backyard,they decided to keep it and they had the sales person sex it for them,turned out to be female.they thought she was venomous,they then bought this huge tank and some rats for her,i just don't think they should keep a wild snake poor thing is probably scared.

whats your guys' thoughts on these things?

People are idiots lol.

That about sums it up.

I would have said stuff to the petco employee that i cant say here and that would have got me kicked out of the store.

I concure with leah's observation lol^

Sounds like a typical dissapointing and aggravating trip to a big box petstore! :slamhead:

ill meet you after work mr. petsmart guy lol.. that was dumb saying they had fangs in the back of their mouth

As a general rule, humans are dumber than a bag of hammers...for PETCO reptile workers, it seems to be a requirement for the position.

I can't believe the petsmart employee would say such a thing, how rude. I work in pet care at petsmart and I could never imagine anyone saying that, in fact, when a costumer comes in who knows their stuff we love to hear what they know. That guy should be fired, he must work at a pretty bad store if he got away with that.

I love the store I work at, we have some very knowledgeable people who each have their own specialty, and if we don't know the answer to a question we never hesitate to find our coworker who does. Great place to work for a university student who loves animals :)

x2 :taz:

I am afraid if he had spoken to me that way, I would have said something along the lines of, " Well it's obvious you know jack so what don't you just shut the bleep up ?"

I cannot stand rude obnoxious people who know nothing and try to convince the world they have forgotten more than an encyclopedia writer ever knew.
