    Re: I think I got lied to...help ID'ing our baby

    To be honest, I did a lot of research on ball pythons in general, but not into the morphs. I did numerous web searches, read books, talked to people at the pet stores, etc. I thought all this would be sufficient. When I look back now, I realize how ignorant I was. We were just excited to be able to purchase her, and for only $60. Since purchasing her, we have done an extensive amount of research into morphs and more into ball python care. I didn't join this site until after our purchase and I just wish I had done so BEFORE we thought about a purchase. I didn't realize that I would be so welcomed. Nor did I think that anyone would have the patience to help us out. I was wrong. I can't pull myself away from this site as there is so much to learn from it.
    It's a long term commitment which I don't take lightly, so I am upset with myself for being duped. I've contacted the "breeder" and she had said she would tell me the name/number of the other breeder she worked with who sexed and verified her morph, but I haven't heard back from her. I also informed her I would like to bring her back...no word from her yet. I'm convinced she isn't a pastel...though I hung onto the hope for a long time just out of pride.
    We are now on the hunt for a mojave female baby. Taking it slower this time and dealing with known breeders. We hate to see her go, but we don't have the ability to keep 2 snakes at this time. I hope and pray we aren't making another mistake.
