An 8 yr old girl's BP died 2 days after she got it, help replace it =)

If we can find out if this snake will be taken care of I am sure there are plenty of people happy to help.

An 8 year old should not be the only one responsible for keeping and caring for a snake. The parents should be the sole responsible ones for the snake and teach their child what it takes to be a responsible pet owner and all the work and money it cost to keep one. Sorry to hear that the snake died, but I don't know anyone on here that will just give an 8 year old a pet and go on with their marry way.

Like Adam said above, do the parents know anything about keeping a snake? etc etc.... Also do they have a herp vet on hand if another snake they get, gets sick instead of just letting it suffer and die? I would not get a 8 year old or a new herp owner a hatching BP. Sometimes it's better to start off with a older one who doesn't have any issues.

To be completely honest, I'm not 100% sure that they are going to be the 100% perfect snake parent. I know that the girl is going to really care for it (by care I mean love it) and I'm sure her parents will be doing to rest. I'm sure that any time any one of you sells a snake you ALWAYS make sure that they are well educated and go to their houses to check out their set-ups. I'm just asking to hear from someone that is interested in selling a snake.

Well, two things..

If they thought something was wrong, why didn't they take it to the vet?

Secondly, I don't think this is appropriate for this section of the forum.

Seems like a request for an animal, and that should be in the Wanted/For Sale Section.

Well since this seems to be settled I will lock the thread - I won't delete it because, to be honest, I think some of the info in it should be out there for people who decide to look.
