Baby BP

Forget about just "not dealing with the guy" anymore - REPORT his *bleeping* butt to the police and aim for animal cruelty charges. The ONLY authority a breeder has to 'euthanize' any animal, is if it has a life-threatening defect and/or is suffering.

Hearing about people like this almost - ALMOST - makes me wish global warming would come along faster. Sure, all the honest and good people would die too, but least people like HIM would be gone. God, I wish I knew his address...

That guy sounds like a real scumbag! If you end up saving any of his normals feel free to PM me and I will try to help you get them set up. I don't have a TON of experience with babies, but we have a bit of experience with babies that don't want to start eating, and I could at least help you with setting up their tubs and things like that.

Well thanks for the offer as far as tubs I will be building acrylic tanks out of black acrylic with a clear front that slides up and down to open and close it.

That sounds pretty awesome! I wish I was that crafty/generally talented with building things. If you are building larger tanks then you may still want to start them in tubs until they are feeding well, or subdivide the tank space somehow. Baby ball pythons like SMALL spaces.

I will be building the tanks to start 16"x16"x7" then after they get bigger I will be building the 2'x2'x9" then I will let them live out in a 4'x4'x12' In less you have a better size.

I'd NEVER Do ANY business with such a person!

I WOULD report him to every organization I could and take his name to the BOI.

He's practicing animal cruelty and is obviously ONLY worried about the MONEY.

Shame on him.

a 4x4 is way to big for a ball python. Largest I would go is the dimensions of a 30g breeder tank.

Yeah. They like smaller spaces. You could have an enclosure that size but it would be hard to heat and cool and it would be very difficult to maintain. Let alone more than one of them.
