Thanks Judy!
Well Said!
OP if you do get plants at walmart ect. check one thing sometimes the dyes or paints use will rub off. especially true of grass like plant bunches, I always rub one leaf in the store and see if any colour transfers. I avoid any that does transfer.
And Mike are you sure yours are not improper? No snake should ALWAYS be in its hides. Perhaps you have something that isn't quite right.
