I just thought I would share this fun story with you.

I was at a large retail chain pet store the other day to pick up some mice. I always like to check out the reptile section, and sometimes like to ask the employees questions about them just to see what kind of fun answers they come up with. Well, this last time they did not disappoint!

They had some baby ball pythons that I was looking at. The store employee asked if I needed any help.

I said, "Gee...these are really small, what do they eat?"

He replied, "Well, when they are bigger they eat mice, but they eat crickets now until they get bigger."

I just said, "Yeah, bp's don't ever eat crickets -- they eat mice from day 1" and then proceeded to pick up my mice.


I feel sorry for the people that come in there relying on him for advice. In a month or so they will wonder why their baby bp died even though they were providing it with crickets all the time.
