Would you buy a ball python that you are not allowed to hold?
I went to a local reptile store and was looking at their BPs. They had a Puma there and I wanted to see it. They told me that they did not allow customers to hold their snakes to reduce the stress and prevent accidents happening to their animals. I can understand but before I buy any BP I must check it over, but they wouldn't allow me to do this. I told the guy that I would think about it. This isn't the first time though. I went there last summer to buy an emperor pin and they wouldn't let me check it over then either. I passed on the emperor pin at that time. I go there on a regular basis to buy food for my snakes, so I always gander at their BPs and they are great guys who work there and they do know their stuff but not allowing me to check the animal out first seems a little bizarre. I know many people buy online and what not, but I just think it is weird.
What do you guys think?
