so i was looking on reptile citys website because im shopping for some hermit crabs. an i decided to check an see what other reptiles they carry so when i get to the python part this is what i see
''PYTHONS
Why would I choose a Ball Python for a pet?
The Ball Python (python regius), also known as the Royal Python, is one of the most beautiful snakes in the world, displaying remarkable patterns of gold, ebony, and bronze. It is an extremely docile snake which is one of the reasons why they make great pets.
Ball Pythons are nocturnal so during the day they will generally sleep in their hide boxes, but at night you can watch them take baths.
!!!These snakes are imported into the United States by the thousands. Most will not eat due to stress and internal parasites. They also are covered in huge ticks
which, must be removed.!!!
Reptile City treats each wild caught Ball Python for worms and inspect each snake for ticks before shipping. After treatment and placed in natural enclosures, our Ball Pythons will eat and thrive in captivity.''
what the heck retile city u import a bunch of wild ball pythons full of sickness an u trying to sale them as pets! WTF an why do they wait until shipping to get off the ticks omg i have never read anything more insane omg how can u say our pythons will eat an thrive in captivity after telling us u get parasite infested stressed snakes full of ticks i mean that is insane![]()
