I do not mind purchasing a few here and there from Petco if i am in the area. but to buy live for our expected 10-16 clutches next year is just not gonna happen with Petco. At least for the moment (1-2 years), our place just will not accommodate both snakes and rodents breeding here, that with my rodent allergy, breeding them right now i do not see as a viable option for me personally. especially when i only expect to need them for hatchlings.
