Re: Few questions about my first BP.
She looks like a normal to me. A pic of the eyes would clear it up - are they black or green?

Re: Few questions about my first BP.
They're black. The pictures make her seem a little darker than she is in person. I thought she might just be a darker pastel. Honestly idc what she is I just wanna get her healthy.

Re: Few questions about my first BP.
The general rule is 10%-15% of their body weight or a bit bigger than the widest part of the body at that age. With the right set up it should get up to size fairly soon. Make sure temps and humidity are on point and you'll be fine. Nice normal BTW. Pastels have green eyes so that's something to look for in the future. If it was sold to you as a Pastel I'd talk to the store where you got it. Likely you were over charged, even at store prices.

I waw viciously overcharged and I will be there today to talk about that. 120 dollars for a normal is highway murder lol. That being said, even if they refuse to give me any money back, I will be keeping her. I still already have some kind of attatchment to her and believe she is still pretty. Clearly I was willing to pay what I did for her albeit ignorantly.

Over charged is right. That is ridiculous especially if you know what they buy them for. There are a few breeders from GA on here that I bet would be more then willing to supply you with something for a much more reasonable price.

Re: Few questions about my first BP.
Oh I don't doubt it. Like I said. This wasnt the plan. I just felt really bad for it when I walked past its cage and just couldn't walk out of there without her. I got got but I can live with that. At least its only 120 dollars and not like 1200 dollars.

Re: Few questions about my first BP.
The problem with that is that now they have $120 to use to buy 5 more ball pythons and then neglect them.  I've fallen victim to the pity-buy at petsmart/petco too but I try not to

I thought about that too, and I realize that by 'saving' her I've actually supported their business.
