    poor snake...

    Yeah its nice that its for charity but it just shows how dumb people are when it comes to celebrity memorabilia. And the fact that this is a LIVING creature, whether its a fish or a puppy. It gets to be a touchy subject.
    Maybe im biased cuz i just dont like justin beiber.
    I just hope the snake is lucky enough to end up in the right hands.

    Nah... I just take them to the groomer once a month, for a blow-out and nail trim. :D

    Ah yes, this is the negative BP.net I have come to know. :) Always assuming the worst, and that no one but themselves could possibly be competent enough to keep a pet snake. Keep it up guys!

    lol whoa whoa! Of course were going to assume the snake will fall into the wrong hands. This is an auction for a celebrity pet. Not only that...a snake, which has specific husbandry needs that a person without experience may not provide.

    Assuming the kind of people that would WANT to spend thousands of dollars on a RTB that was owned by justin beiber...hell yes were going to assume these people dont know what they are doing.
    Regardless of cost people who spend $100 on a snake get them and dont know what their doing.

    It doesnt mean they have to be an active member of a forum to be a good snake owner...its just that the people who would most likely bid and buy a snake owned by a celebrity probably doesnt care about anything else other than it was touched/owned by one. Doesnt sound like the best deal for the animal.

    Just look at CL and see all the pets that are being sold by people who shouldnt have bought them in the first place...I think the snake will be LUCKY to end up with someone who will keep it for more than a couple months.

    Agreed. i just don't see anyone who knows what they are doing, dropping that cash for that snake. Then again, there could be hardcore Boa-keeping Bieber fans. But I'm pretty sure most of those bids were from people who just wanted it to say they have it.
