Looking for snakes in TN
I'm looking for pythons or boas in the memphis area, I can't find any breeders or dealers other than vet pets.

You could always buy one from a reputable breeder online and have it shipped.

Never, ever underestimate the vital importance of strict and proper quarantine. There is no such thing as being too careful. One mistake can cost a world of damage, and regret that lasts a lifetime.

Re: Looking for snakes in TN
I just bought two beautiful BP's from petco today. you'd be surprised what you can find there because they don't know :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: about there pythons and sell all for the same price no matter what color or pattern. Now I have BP's to go with my red tail boa. Thanks christie though. I checked vet pets today, he had pretty reduced pattern bp but they were out of my price range for today.

Re: Looking for snakes in TN
If you got your snakes from petco, you should be able to take them to Dr. McGhee for $15. I strongly recommend it. They will sex, and check you bps for parasites. Well worth it, in my opinion. Just take your petco receipt with you.
Congrats on your new additions. I hope they are being housed separately. I know they are on sale pretty cheap right now, which store did you get them from?

Re: Looking for snakes in TN
We sexed them ourselves. They don't have parasites. I don't want to spend money on something I can check or my fiance can check our selves, but thanks for the information. I got them from the petco on germantown parkway. They are the cleanest in the memphis area and nice people working there. They quarentine all their animals and check for parasites, they know better than to be selling snakes with parasites. I would only check for parasites if I got it from some hole in the wall petstore. Not a petstore I trust with my pets.
And pics will be up soon I will have to borrow a camera or take my webcam back from my sister.

Re: Looking for snakes in TN
oh and by the way no they are not being housed seperately and I'm not trying to be an ass but I would not like to hear about how they shouldn't be housed together my fiance and I are knowledgable enough to know facts about snakes. They are sleeping together and curling up together and none of them have parasites or anything that could harm one another, the biggest concern of anyone housing diff. snakes together is that one will crush the other. As the size they are now, that won't happen and when they grow a bit they will be housed seperatly anyways.

Re: Looking for snakes in TN
Actually, the biggest concern is that they will be forced to share heat/hiding places. The reason they huddle together is because they both want to be in that particular spot at the same time, and are forced to tolerate each other in order to stay there. Having a cage mate stresses them out and makes them feel insecure, snakes are not social creatures. You also will never know which one pooped/peed and if mites somehow get in, they'll both get them.
But apparently you know everything there is to know about snakes.
