    Going to do to a rescue today...
    So yesterday I met up with a guy at his house because he said he had to many snakes and had to get rid of some. Met him at a pet store and seemed like a really good snake owner. Come to find out when i arrived and saw the snakes were all in a 20g long tank with no UTH and one small water bowl and one hide. In the tank was 2 boas and 6 ball pythons. All ranging in size. Couple of them were pretty big. I was shocked! To my amazement the snakes didn't look all the bad except for probably one with stuck shed on its head. So today I am going back to rescue a nice normal female. I cant rescue all of them but one I can do. He said hes had them in one tank for a little over a year. Just wanted to share with you guys. thanks for reading.

    I couldnt believe either. Really shocked me only because when i met him at the pet store he said hes been into snakes for 20 years. There was a salmon boa and a red tail boa and i would say 600+ gram ball python and couple babies and couple 150+ gram pythons. And in a small square tank (one of those eco squared enclosure) he had a 7ft red tail boa and a 800+ gram ball python. so sad

    Wow. Quarentine, quarentine....

    That's just crazy. What would make anyone think it was okay to basically FILL a tank with snakes?
