I have read this post for the last hour because i just wanted to see how things turned out.... this has made me so upset dude, im sorry for your loss. I'm new to the bp world myself. i have twenty some snakes and i care for them each and every day. the fact that there are people out there like this.... just agggh! I commend your honorable nature and thank you for being out there to counter balance people like that. Personally i'm in this hobby for the snakes. i would have been figuring myself a way to get my broke butt down to this guy and get my snakes back face to face...thank you for posting your experience i learned a lot in the past hour of reading. i also learned who all the cool people are by those whom have been posting in this thread.... heck i think i saw somewhere that someone sent a message from a microwave... that made my day lol have a good one dude and happy breeding!
