It is yes. I live in the UK but there will be something where you are to. A Google search should come up with something I would imagine
I would definitely keep everything and use it. People like that should not be a lowed to keep animals !
I hope everything goes well. Good luck.

Like who? The ones that don't know or are uninformed? I would bet it wasn't intentional but due to ignorance it happened and the sale of the animal was the out.
I just wish people would get informed BEFORE they make a purchase, any purchase.

For the guy to make a story like the bad shed changing colour and what not and he said he was very convincing so I bet anything that he new exactly What he was doing
I'm not saying he held the snake down and burnt it ! but I bet anything he new what he was doing and the risks of doing it
Also people who burn there snakes and then sell them as perfectly healthy should NOT be owning any animals. That's the sort of people I'm on about! Not new people who are uninformed

Yes, he knew exactly what he was selling me. He went on and on about his experience with snakes, even bragging about one of his burmese pythons being on display at the Indianapolis zoo. He told me that I could reach him for advice whenever I needed since I am newer to BPs. He named off a bunch of people I shouldn't do business with in the area, but he forgot to name himself obviously. I trusted him because he took the time to talk to me, and made comments about things such as the importance of reputation in the hobby.
He and his girlfriend both read my messages regarding the condition of the animal the following day. Neither has responded in the last three days. They should never own animals, you are correct. Which is why I did not press them to return the snake after my first message. At least the little guy has a chance with me.

If you need a good source for finding out who is or isn't reputable, the best place is the BOI. Here is a link: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...splay.php?f=13 Sometimes people trash other people to try to make themselves look knowledgeable or out of jealousy, and I always take one person's opinion with a grain of salt until I can get a chance to look them up on the BOI. I never buy from anyone without checking them out there first.

You could also contact the zoo with this information. If he is getting a kick back from having his Burmese on display, this might put a dent in his income. I would talk to the zoo manager in charge of the herps. Make an appointment to go in and talk. Have all of your information printed out to give to that person.
