    Re: NEED opinions & advice...

    I'm new to this, so forgive me if this is an outlandish suggestion- maybe offer to trade these two for their future offspring? By the time you have to make good on your deal, maybe she'll be in a better position to properly care for snakes. Best case, she'll take the deal and by the time babies come around she won't be interested anymore. Worst case, nothing changes and you saved two snakes from poor care only to thrust two others into it later.

    I don't envy you! Having to tell someone they're not a good pet owner goes over about as well as telling someone they're a bad parent.

    I just did what you suggested about the offspring but she's still refusing. She came over the other day & didn't even ask to seen them or anything.
