    Can't get this baby off my mind SO SAD

    Another student brought this gorgeous baby albino kingsnake to the petting zoo


    I felt so sorry for it. UGH I wanted to steal him. He told me he hadnt fed him in three weeks cause he "forgot" he lives in a little hex fish aquarium with no heat and rocks as substrate. At one point he hooked the clip from a leash around his neck and was "walking" him. Then he yelped when it bit him! Little tiny nick and well deserved. My mom offered him $50 for it and he refused. I am so sad I can't stop thinking about this little fellow. Mom and I both tried to tell him nicely how he should be cared for and even offer an empty shoe box bin we have at home. I hate when people flat out refuse to learn a little something.

    Aw. Call animal control. Some people are just pig headed. All we can do is try. Don't feel bad though, it's not your fault.

    Welcome to the World Kid. It's a fine place where almost everyone is an expert on almost everything and the wise man generally maintains a silent grin, or stoic patience.

    That was a nice looking king though. The rocks won't be a problem for it, nor the lack of heating. The cage is a tad small.

    I bet that kid loses interest in that snake come summer time. You might hit him up again right before school is out.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Thank you that makes me feel a little better. I think I might have to bug him a little more.
