Zombie, are u in sacramento? i will take some more comparison shots outside this evening. i would say this guy is great if you are looking for a normal or possible dinker ball python and have herp equipment to trade. he has no grasp of genetics whatsoever - i've tried explaining basic genetics to him several times, tried to explain that he doesn't have any lessers, to which he replies "this snake is PART lesser". like most pet stores, its important as a knowledgeable ball python keeper/breeder to disregard 99% percent of what they (the pet stores) say, like "this ball python is too young to sex", etc etc. and i know the snakes i get from him are going to a good home (my house).

I am in elk grove. I have emailed him a bunch of times. I have absolutely no problems with someone selling their animals, as I am a business and do the same. However, when someone claims to be a non profit reptile rescue and then sells animals for hundreds of dollars and claims they have genetics that they don't, that's an issue. First of all, claiming your a non profit rescue is illegal if you are not in fact a 501c. The second thing is selling a lesser, then a lesser ghost, then a lesser woma that are all the same exact snake is lying and wrong. Especially when you have someone in the industry contact you and let you know that your selling an animal that isn't what your advertising. If they want to be a reptile rescue then fine, do it the right way. Asking $600 for normal red tail Boas and an additional $200 for an enclosure for them is not a "rehoming" or "adoption" fee, its a selling price. If you are taking in unwanted reptiles for free or for a small delivery fee (as they state) and turn around and sell it for hundreds more, that's wrong. Doing it under the reuse of a non profit orginization is illegal.
