Thanks! Although he's only 11, he's already acting like a teenager. He's into this hair-spiking phase especially when he's going out. Of course like a good father, I have to tease him that he's doing it for the ladies. ;)

LOL. I know the feeling, but sometimes the people that buy them can be worse. One pet store near us had a full grown Carpet Python for sale. This woman came in with her young son, and the son was talking the mother into buying the snake for him. So she went to buy it and after the pet store owner took it out of the cage to ring it up, the woman realized the price was $200 instead of $20 like she thought, so refused to buy it. It was obvious that she didn't know anything about the snake or requirements, and her son probably didn't either. But it was a "pretty yellow snake". :mad:
