I'm wondering, as I do from time to time, just how widespread this willingness to disclose a windfall really is.

Do you guys return wrongly given change?

Most of us are drivethru veterans. What happens when the mistake is IN your favor? Do you go back?

If you don't return the extra change and you don't go tell them they gave you 3 extra burgers, why?

Why be so all over the place about being public if you purchase a snake that you later find to be gravid?

Is it overwhelming altruism or is the real basis a tad closer to home, something that could happen to anyone of us who puts 2 snakes together?

Could it be, and I really don't mean to single out anyone or point any fingers or anything of that nature, but could it be, the reason that so many have said they, "could not" (of which I am HIGHLY skeptical when push comes to shove, again, just human nature not anyone in particular) keep what they had in fact legitimately purchased, be because if it happened to them, if they were out, had lost, did not benefit from, reap the harvest of, they would want something to sooth the feeling of missing out or loss that seeing someone else benefit by only being a well timed purchase but not having done any of the work to get the babies.

I wonder if deep down that doesn't have a lot to do with things.

For me, depending on who the seller was and how I felt about them, I could easily keep all the babies. I could also just as easily give them all away, but maybe not any to the seller. But all this "couldn't" keep them, well, it may be my lack, but "couldn't" isn't part of my equation on what to do in this scenario.
