    Houston help with ball python scare.

    DISCLAMER! Dead ball pythons in video. Right on the page.

    I was eating at my local family owned resteraunt (SP?) and this came on. as you read the article it tells you about how some people in a neiborhood around houston got a package shipped too them, full of Bps. It was supposed to go to a petstore. Some escaped around the house and in the yards of local neibors. Some people are scared of them, even though they are babies and they know they are harmless. They need people to come and help, because no organization will!! I would like to go, but its a long drive. If your intrested in helping catch them, just E-mail the Tv station!! :D Lets just hope this doesnt put any more friction against snake owners.

    I noticed how all theses experts were giving their opinion on the snakes. That one lady sounded sure that pets and baby's were in danger!! The owner has caused a huge set back there in Texas with all the stuff going on.

    Right!?!?! Who knew my pets and god-kids were in such danger? :confused: Good thing I'm a big strong girl, in case one of those makes it across town..........:rolleyes:


    In all seriousness.... I really hope this dies down quietly.... And I'm just glad it wasn't a clutch of Burms, Ticks, or Annies.... that would have really gotten the neighbors to react. :oops:
