Why not to cohabitate any snake

[PitOnTheProwl]

It is beyond me why anyone would even try to sell ANY animal that looks like that. That is an animal that is in piss poor shape to say the least. I understand ball pythons can be really picky eaters, but if I had that animal in a group of animals that are supposed to be for sale, that animal would not be included until I am satisfied that it is 100% healthy and eating on a regular basis. The ball python market is so saturated that to build a good reputation quality is one of the top things you need. Its not only selective breeder stock, but assuring that your animals are healthy as well. If I saw that snake on anyone's table for sale, I would not buy from them no matter what else they had. Thats just my 2 cents on this thread

Remember there are TONs of people that are flipping and/or just wanting to make a quick buck too.
It makes us all look bad.

Again, as far keeping snakes together. I still wont recommend it but I am open to discussing it.
Then again I recommend a vet trip for an RI but many of you already know I have never needed to make a vet trip for the 2 RI cases I had or the several that were left in my care.
