Very nice, I like her. Not too extreme in either direction.

Nice!

She looks nice, but her tub looks disgusting.

I'm always weary of buying snakes if the person doesn't even care enough to clean their cages.

My thoughts exactly.

Personally, I'd pass on that alone.

Heck, a lot of mine look like that the day after cleaning day. Of course I don't usually take pictures of them like that, but I wouldn't pass on the snake on that basis alone.

I promise you they don't.

It's not (just) the condition of the paper, it's the side of the tub that's showing. That's not a fresh mess. It's a smeared on patina of gross - and it's DRIED. I'd rather see fresh streaks of crap than what is there. Fresh crap is understandable - that's not, and ain't no way snake painted it on that evenly, either. It's just a sloppy job of cleaning and probably over a long period of time.

I disagree, I've had many upset snakes who have painted/sprayed the sides of their tubs with urates just because they're angry and want to be left alone. Urates tend to dry quickly and look a lot like that. I'm certainly not seeing a caked on patina of dried crap. I'm seeing dried urates which snakes naturally use defensively.
