You did better than me, I would have hit him.. hard.. more than once..
That is extremely sad and I am sorry you and your wife had to have it happen. I wish everyone could care about their babies the way people on this site do.

Re: My blood is boiling
I hate to ask, but are you sure they were dead? They can be ICE cold, unresponsive and still be alive-ish.

Wow thats horrible  Are you sure they were dead? Sometimes I've heard they'll go into a state where they can appear that way but may live if provided heat, although chances are low. This is really sad. Very sorry to hear it..

I am pretty sure that they were dead, of course I have no way of knowing for sure. But when I picked one of them up they didn't respond or move in the slightest.

Re: My blood is boiling
I can't believe that! He doesn't deserve to be decked...he deserves a flying armbar! Poor snakes, no animal deserves such cruelty.

Were they stiff ?
It is remotely possible they were not dead yet, just very near it. If they had died they would have been stiff.
As for your "friend" I believe I would have re-arranged that man's face for him,
with my fists,
more than once.
Ah, who am I kidding, I would have put that fool in a body bag and not felt the least bit guilty doing it. In fact, I would have taken great pleasure in feeling him under my fists and feet.
I am very sorry you had to go through this. And if it were me, I'd file a complaint with the Humane Society or whoever would listen to me and give a damn.

Re: My blood is boiling
 props to you for not doing what many of us feel he deserved
I'd still report him to animal control, especially since he works at a pet store...

Re: My blood is boiling
 I agree with Jerry. I would still report him. Grrr. I had a similar situation. I was watching a gtp for a friend while he was going through rehab. He was a major drunk, and I only befriended him for the snake's sake. 6 months later he assured us he was clean and wanted the snake back. As much as I wanted to keep him, I had to give him away. He died 3 months later. At least I don't have to be friends with the guy anymore. But, life has a way of taking angels when we need them the most.

Yeah they were, they had no limpness to them at all. Still unsure whether or not we are going to report him to anyone as it may cost my wife her job and we need the money. I am still looking at ways to report him w/o getting her fired.
