If you have any good reptile shows nearby, you can pick up good deals, as well as hold the snakes before buying. Buying off the net is perfectly fine as well, but there is a risk, although very small. I've bought many times off the net and have been 100% satisfied every time. There are many snakes available here, as well as on kingsnake.com and faunaclassifieds.com. Lots of people sell on facebook, but I'm not sure how that works as I don't do the facebook thing. You can also check out the individual breeders websites. There are plenty of links/banners here as well as on the websites I mentioned above. If you have any doubts as to the sellers reputation, you can check here as well as on faunaclassifieds BOI (Board of Inquiry). http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...splay.php?f=13
