Just wanted to say that I was once in this guys shoes. Except I emailed breeders asking for informatiom about ball pythons. None of them responded to me...
So I went to Petco and got myself their baby ball python starter kit! 40 gallon tank, red heat lamp, giant water bowl, a half log, a branch, and some aspen. Well when my snake wouldnt eat or shed, I found out that snakes can have shed issues, and that my setup was stressing him out... along with all the other myths.. all from coming here..
I think you have a good opportunity to mentor a new ball python owner and future reptile hobbiest. I would show him my snakes and see if he's still interested, after hearing how I do things. But that's just me. A less-stressful and easy escape would be to tell him the snake sold, or that you don't feel comfortable selling to someone with no experience.
