You may pay a little more for your animals but what you get in return as far as healthy beautiful ball pythons will more than make up for it!!
If you look at my signature. These are the first reptiles I have purchase from Petco. I just happened to see 2 nice looking BP's and picked them up. I was at a Expo in Seattle this weekend and everyone was selling Pinstripes for the same price. HDI, Raining Reptiles and Seattle Reptile.......No one at the show had a Spider. I know 90% of Corp Pet stores don't take care of the animals. But, this one actually does. The reptile CAS actually breeds Gecko's, Frogs, and Salamanders. So, he has some knowledge of reptiles. I actually called 2 different private breeders and sent them pictures. They both said to pick up the Pinstripe for sure and the Spider would be a gamble....well, I don't have "Lucky 7" tattoo'd on my hand for nothing! So, I got them. I like them and now know they have a good home.
