As some of you know I work at Petsmart and had recently adopted a snake from there in horrible condition. I have been on the manager since then about better the habitats and feeding habits. I was asked the other day to feed the snakes... a corn and a ball both get one pinkie. Thats like a snack for the poor ball. The manager informed me that they can not feed them anything else. I told her then I will not be the one feeding them as I do not condone mistreatment of the animals and that includes not feeding them properly.

She asked me to find a website or maybe even a person who can be reached through phone or email so the manager can pass it on and see if we cant get better housing and atleast meet the feed requirements for the snakes. I gave her this site already and printed out a care guide for her. But are there any other really good informative sites out there that have information on the correct housing and feeding requirements for captive ball pythons? I think this is a step forward that she is willing to pass on information.

In the mean time I do what I can to better the snake's lives there and I will continue on working on getting them feeding the appropriate sized food items.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
