Vendor at herp show has a new morph ball python

[joepythons]

I was bored to death today and found out thier was a reptile show in Peoria today so went to check it out.Warning before you proceed: i am not making fun of this vendor by no means.Since thier was only one vendor with ball pythons of course i was interested.The sign said they(2) were het for strip and were only $50.I gave the guy the benifit of doubt and asked him did he mean het for stripe ? He said no! He proceeds to tell me he has a breeder and he is the only vendor allowed to buy and sell these balls het for strip.He goes on to say that because they have the strip of gold on thier tails it means they are het for strip .Of course i asked him if he had genetic papers for these hets? He repeated about the strip on the tail.I asked him if he ever sells on the internet and he said they were getting setup to sell on kingsnake :eek: .So BEWARE when you see thier ads.He also sold a Anaconda and told the guy they only reach 6ft :eek: ,i was to late to tell him the truth .

Hah.. you know I saw them at the show at the lake county fairgrounds. I just laughed when I saw that.

He did have a yellow anaconda.. males often stay at 6'.. but still, females get a lot bigger.

I'll know to avoid him when I go to Lake County next month.
