This was all over the news the past few days, and everyones been buzzing about it. Right when I got my mother comfortable with my ball python too.

Whats very sad is afterword some people beat the snake with a shovel and the snake is not doing too well at the moment.

A 4ft snake isn't too large of a handful, it really dissapoints me that someone let this guy go and caused this to happen.
