    This doesn't look like a normal.. Input appreciated
    Hey guys and gals, new to the boards and I just wanted to ask your opinion on this snake... It looks nothing like any normals I've seen, and maybe you could give me some input. Thank you for your time. And without further adieu, the infamous "normal":

    Not the best pic, but looks normal to me from that shot.

    Nice reduced pattern and bright colors. Possibly a fire, but very easily could be a normal.

    Looks normal to me with some pretty cool banded patterning.

    Looks normal to me. Is he a bit underweight?

    Just came across this while browsing my local classifieds:

    http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pet/3004111485.html

    Sorry you need to sell her, normal or not.

    It's a Normal, and please don't include the heat rock in the deal. Those things are really bad ju-ju.

    Heat rock = belly burns :(
    I never really understood why people say I'm asking x amount of dollars as a "rehoming fee". It's called I'm selling a snake and this is the price.

    I believe it's because you can get in trouble for selling snakes if you aren't a petstore or a business of some kind. A way around it is to say re-homing fee. I think that's why but I may be wrong.

    if that's true I can see why people do it. But at the end of the day isn't it the same thing? Giving a animal in return for money. I don't think because you call it something else, that doesn't make it true. "no I wasn't selling this crack, I was rehoming it" lol :p

    Like I said. That's what I think the reason is. But you do bring a good point up. I may start a business re-homing neglected drugs to better family. LMAO.

    It's because selling an animal outright on Craigslist is prohibited:

    Rehoming and selling are the same thing IMO but that's why you need to word it as "rehoming" on CL: because of their terms.

    Oh, not my listing, was just curious what the heck it was. I guess I'm not as familiar with normals as I thought lol.

    If I remember correctly, its a California law. Because craigslist is based in Cali, their whole site has to have that rule, even if your in another state. :rolleyes:

    Oh, and because flaggers LOVE rules.

    Looks like a pretty reduced pattern normal to me :)
    And now I know the reason behind the word "re-homing". Wordplay at its best :)
