I emailed a pet store - a SMALL one, not petsmart or anything - and have more than enough money. I almost always have more than $300 in my spending account, so vet bills should be alright. I'm sure my parents wouldn't just let it die, I'd pay them back too. If this doesn't work I've already started my slide show... I know ball pythons can be a bit tricky, but I've read about so many people who find it easy and love them. I'm kinda set on a bp, but willing to get a garter or corn. The only problem with corns is, they can get a bit longer than bp's, and they already think 3 feet is big for a snake. Also, i want a calm snake that can just chill out in handling, not HEY LOOK HERE WHATS THIS WHERE'D I GO OVER HERE HAHA WHUP IM ON YER LEG NOW DO YOU LIKE WHEN I EAT YOUR HAIR YEAH ME TOO
Anyways, thanks for the reply!
EDIT: I just looked it up. Our local vet we go to with our dog also looks after reptiles.
