Haha, you are NUTS!!! lmao...rofl

jake that is a good look for you. hahaha. we need to get together again and talk snakes.

For a standard BCI male, or even female for that matter, $499.99 is not realistic at all. I co-own a reptile store in which I have normal BCI males (in the 7' range) priced at $149.99 and females in that same size range for about $174.99. People buy big boas at these prices left and right and these prices seem fit for my customers. Baby Columbians run for $129.99 and so people are willing to pay another $30 or so to get a breedable specimen.

Sure do. We could have a good time talkin' 'bout ball! lmao I'm wierd. Just got home from school and need sleep....Sleep good

I actually work at Petland in Charlotte, NC. I hate how the whole chain of stores has acquired a bad reputation because of select stores choosing to keep their place unclean or make crazy decisions. What many people don't realize is that Petland are franchise owned. So every single Petland is owned and ran by a different person. My store actually won Store of the Year this past year for all of the Petlands. But when my general manager went to a store in Atlanta last week, the Petland there was dirty and they knew nothing about ANY of the animals, be it snakes, hamsters, puppies, whatever. I'll admit, the people in charge of the reptiles at my store may not know everything, but they do everything they can. And they are always willing to take friendly advice, be it from me or a customer who has had a specific kind of herp and knows a lot about them. So i think it's really crappy to say that a Pet Store Chain is no good based on your expirence with one store. Just my :2cent: worth tho.

You have a point, but in my experience...and a lot of others as well, it's not just one pet store. It's usually the Petco's that are problematic.
