how's that? :D

Much better!!

jamie, you forgot to gush over how gorgeous he is! :P

He definitely is gorgeous. I could be wrong and I certainly don't want to be a party pooper but he doesn't look like a pure hog to me. Was he sold as pure? Again, I could absolutely be wrong!

yes he was... but then again, the breeder chose not to mention to me that he knew there were mites in his setup!!! he has hundreds of snakes... i just can't even wrap my head around why you would want your breeders etc to be battling mites all the time???

i won't be purchasing anything from him again.
which is too bad cause he's so close :(

Its the sad truth that there are a lot of less than reputable people out there. I can't even imagine how he managed to get mite infestation in his whole collection. Breeders all have a quarantine room that new acquisitions go in. You can tell right off if there are mites and treat immediately. Regardless, he is a beautiful snake and I am sure once you get past the mite situation (no more of the mineral oil though, as it could very well have caused the loss of some scales) I am sure all will be fine. Most important is that you love him and think he is beautiful!

so please explain so i can learn... what makes you feel he's not a true hog?

regardless i love him very much and will for his lifetime and beyond... :)
