Stupid Stupid Petco Employee(pic)

Holy yellow stripes Batman thats a really hot king man

wow the yellow is outstanding

Beautiful snake!


Your Petco employee reminds me of ours who has gotten albinos, mojaves and pastels in their shipments and scoops them up for herself :nods:

I'm glad the Kingsnake is in good hands now. I love a happy ending. :)

What do you mean, exactly? Most of the time, pet stores don't accidentally order high end snakes....unless you mean the store orders them on purpose and she buys them afterwards.

I mean that I didn't buy what she was saying - she was just trying to show off.

I think the myth originates from some albino mammals having that problem. Lack of melanin in the eyes causes photosensitivity and sometimes problems with sight with mammals but I think people have a tendency to generalize that information in with reptiles.

And I am looking to volonteer/work at a place like that! Hti me up when you need workers:rockon: .

I was at petco a few hours ago picking up some mice and had to take a look over at their reptile section, and what do I find? I find three bp's in HORRIBLE shape. They're about 2 feet long, and about as thick as you'd expect a 16'' bp to be, blued out in 20% humidity/95 degree tanks with no temp grade, and covered in wrinkles. I felt absolutely horrible. Had I $240 dollars I would not have allowed those snakes to stay in such horrible conditions.

I pitched one of the biggest fits that I'm sure this particular petco had ever seen and had every employee short of the cash register lady over by the tanks helping me fix the conditions. Boo on them.

Needless to say I got my mice for free for helping their bp's and got inside news about a shipment of red tailed boas that I may need to look into ;) .

Petco just surprises me each time I go over there in the saddest ways.

That is a GORGEOUS king! I've never striping like that. =D
