is it on the verge of death or something? lol either that or a generous person/ person that just wants rid of it

It's gonna be a garter snake who got it's tail dipped in red paint. J/p
But yeah good luck I got my first 1.0 Norm from a guy on CL for free with everything...and then moved him to a tub and sold everything.

[matt71915]

there are good deals to be had on CL...and bad too, just be careful and be sure your getting a healthy snake

of the 2 snakes i got of CL one was a healthy 6 year old 5 foot virgin female
and the second was a very thin male with no tongue in a 55 gallon, no substrate... i bought him just because i felt bad for him and hes now gaining weight and doing awesome for a snake without a tongue.
I now have a 55 gallon fish aquarium too

[pavlovk1025]

No tongue?! Whoa.

I got my boa, and large tub, with about a dozen frozen feeders for free! Well, I had to drive from Toledo to Arlington to pick her up, but I just took my son along and made a road tripout of it. His b'day was on wed. and I found out about the snake and talked to the guy tue. so when I got home I asked my boy what he had planned for friday night, and he had nuthin'. So I told him we were driving to DC friday night, but never told him why. So when we get there, and the guy shows us the snake, I ask him "I know I'm a little late, but 'Happy Birthday!' " He was already excited about us getting a boa, but when he heard it was for him, his eyes got real big! It was a nice trip with my child, and something I will remember always.

Cool story, and an awesome surprise for the boy!! I used to love doing stuff like that for my kids. (Now, they're in their 20s, and they just want cash for their birthdays, LOL!)

Congrats on what seems like a very good deal!
