    Sad Craigslist ads
    I cruise Craigslist every once in while to see what people are selling and find other local herpers when I came upon an ad for (NOT from) 8 Ball pythons that were a "great investment $$$". Sure thing. I was a little curious so I wrote them asking about health, weight, age, etc. and this is what the seller sent back:

    "All the ball pythons are captive bred there are two balls that are about 10 months old, 2ft long
    and the rest are all about 2 months old average legnth about 1 1/2 ft long. They are in really good shape. All of these balls do require assistance with feedings. Please contact me if youre interested."

    Gee, I can't figure out why all of those "Captive Bred" Balls need feeding assistance... :frustrate :no: :angered:

    Actually, I sent a reply telling him that I would be happy to answer any questions about getting them set up correctly so he wouldn't need to assist them to eat. I figured I'd give him the benefit of the doubt and hope he just doesn't know any better.

    The omnipresent Jimmy! Just think, in a few years I might be able to pick up some feeding-assisted Pieds and Clowns. And if I'm lucky, I'll have plenty to choose from in their very own 10 gallon tank. :rolleye2:
