So here is what happened, I went to my local reptile shop to get a rat, as always I can't just go get a rat with out looking at everything. I was by the big snake area, and noticed a red tail boa soaking in its water. As I looked closer i noticed an injury behind his head. As I looked closer I notice this injury extended down most of his back. Curious I asked the guy what happened. He sai he didnt know how it happened. He told me that they found the snake this morning in front of the store. No one knew how long it had been out there. they said it was freezing when they pulled it out of the plastic tub. It has been around 50 degrees in the morning here lately. WHY THE HELL DO PEOPLE BUY THESE BEAUTIFUL CREATURES IF THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO DO WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THE ANIMALS CARE?!?!?!?! IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO TAKE IT TO THE VET, OR GIVE THE ANIMAL PROPER HUSBANDRY THEN DONT GET THE ANIMAL AT ALL. It really pisses me off when people wont take responsibility for the living things they chose to look after. sorry for the rant.
