    Why would a pet store be selling an ADULT BP?(MN if you want to rescue it)

    This week my boyfriend and I went and purchased some hoppers for our BP at a petland store. We discovered an adult BP there(which was not there 2 weeks earlier) going through a bad shed and honestly it was living in deplorable conditions!

    It had no temp or humidity gauges and had a tiny shelter that there is no way it could fit itself in. I know BPs like tight secure hides but there is no way an adult BP could even curl up in the hide they had for it. The water dish was also tiny as hell.

    We are new-ish owners to our BP and have had issues with maintaining a proper home for our snake but due to the help from some of the members on here I feel we have a good habitat for our snake. If we have more issues obviously we will bring them up here or take our snake to a vet.(but this issue isn't out OUR SNAKE)

    My BF and I actually talked about buying the adult BP from petland because we felt sorry for it.(and I also feel damn bad about all the stray cats running around our neighborhood) We decided we don't want 2 snakes though.

    Anyway I have 2 purposes for starting this thread:
