It doesn't matter though, we could forever run in circles with these type of arguments. I've seen "het for pastel" balls being sold at reptile shows. I also doubt all the flippers that set up tables properly quarantine their animals. The responsibility should ultimately fall into the hands of the person who purchases the animal. If they want to go cheap and buy from a shady business/person, they're taking a risk. Also, anybody who buys an animal should know how to properly take care of it before they make the purchase. I get tired of hearing people whine and blame others because they didn't want to spend any time doing research first. If somebody doesn't understand basic husbandry and quarantine practices, they have no business owning 15 snakes, as you use in your example.
Well if you buy from someone that does know proper husbandry skills at least they can answer any questions a newbie might have.If they ask these diots on ballbids they dont have a clue .I have seen the het for pastels to at shows and its sad.
