Adult Female Pinstripe for Adoption
Female Pinstripe Ball Python for Adoption
Hello all! I'm looking for someone to adopt my female pinstripe ball python. She is almost 4 years old (born Oct. 2012), and 1300g. Various situations have changed in my life since I bought her, and I've come to the conclusion that I would like her to be in experienced hands that will give her a loving and wonderful home.
Some background info... She was an excellent eater up until April of 2015. She then went on a long an inexplicable eating strike, and resumed eating again at the end of July. She once again ate flawlessly every time I fed her (she was on small and then later medium sized rats, and ate every 1-3 weeks), up until around mid-February of this year. She has not eaten since, even though I've tried many different things to try to encourage her to eat. She has not lost weight quickly (though she has lost a bit), and looks perfectly healthy to my eyes--good scales, clear eyes, no breathing issues. However, I simply do not have the means or experience to give her the care I think she needs and deserves. I just want her to go to a good home where I know she will be well taken care of. I come to this forum specifically because I know there are a lot of you who are owners of many ball pythons, and are very experienced with taking good care of them. I think you guys would be my best bet for ensuring she gets into capable hands.
I'd really rather not put her up for adoption on someplace like Craigslist, or give her up to a local pet shop. I would like to give her to someone in the area (I live in Northern Oregon), if only to save her the stress that surely comes with mailing her anywhere, but if that option isn't going to be viable I will happily figure out how to get her shipped to you. Please PM me, respond to this thread, or email me (kalesaurus@gmail.com) if you're interested, or know anyone who might be! And thank you all in advance.

I'm so sorry for the poor quality, she never wants to sit still when I want to get some photos of her. :(
