    what do you guys think
    so I am thinking about buying this guy. He is 100% het pied. I found the ad on CL, but the person selling him (don't want to call him out) has a good guy rating on the BOI. What do you think, does this snake look a little skinny or is it just me.

    Just judging off the photo...looks clean, but a bit skinny, could use a few nice sized meals. Is he eating well?

    he looks a little on the thin side, but a few good meals will change that :)

    he looks kinda skinny. you'll just have to get him and beef him up a little :P then you'll have an excuse to start a het project :)

    Might help to have a little more info. An age would help. If he is just 2 months old, no. If he is 5 years, maybe a little.

    Sorry, he is 2yrs old.

    I wasn't looking for a het project just yet. To exicted to get a visual, but I found this little guy and it kind of changed my mind

    if i as in that exact same situation price would determine it if its too good of a deal to pass up then do it and you'll have him when your ready to start hets

    also i just bought a normal male that was in the condition that one is a lil over 4 foot and real skinny also a lil over 2 years old, beautiful snake it was kept in a 55 gallon with no substrate just a UTH a half log a water bowl and a stick fee as only 50 bucks he is the sweetest snake ive ever had never hissed at me never struck at me and is very curious always roaming around plus i got a 55 gallon tank that is either gonna have a turtle in it or its gonna be a fish tank :)

    I can tell by what's in the background who the seller is. Pardon my French, but he's a zit on the butt of the herp community. I haven't checked his feedback rating on the BOI as I stay faaaar away from him, but he has a pretty bad rep thread or two over on reptileradio's forum if you'd like to have a peek.

    His animals are kept in disgusting conditions, and he's constantly "getting out of the business". I wouldn't buy the snake, get one from a reputable seller.

    in that case i would say pass it up i didn't know he had a bad rep and i guess the snake shows ho good he is your only as good as the quality of your snakes in the selling world
