I was the pet care manager at a Petsmart and I would not recommend you get your ball python there. I'm not a disgruntled ex-employee or anything of the sorts. Just from my experience, they were snippier and not as good of eaters as the balls I own, that are all from breeders. The poor things are usually pretty stressed out too because the enclosures at the stores aren't possible to set up cool/hot spots in and the humidity was almost impossible to control. Also 80 bucks is just too much for a normal imo.
