    seeing how i got a bit of "sass" from this community i think its best if i just leave now and not ask any more questions. Thank you for making me feel stupid for asking this community a simple question.
    Nobody can make you feel stupid. You simply choose to feel that way . Whether it is deserved or not is on you.

    Your first post ever starts with "I got", which implies that you already have in your possession, not that you're thinking of getting. You have nice pictures of three snakes which again makes it appear you already have the snakes. While it isn't unusual for a first time buyer getting a single animal from Pet Smart not to know what they are buying , few people go out and acquire three snakes on an impulse without doing a little homework up front. So I ask myself if this person is legitimately unknowing or just testing the acuity of the members on this forum.

    This is a helpful community, probably the nicest collective you'll find out there for this particular hobby. But if you're going to be too thin skinned for this place, perhaps you should take your leave. However, I seriously doubt you'll fair better elsewhere.

    It is helpful for this community to have more information not less. Had you provided the information you gave in this post up front, it may have been received better and responded to in a way that was more to your liking. Look at this thread from my perspective. Someone posts, having just joined the forum for the purpose of the thread, asking about the genetics of three snakes they say, "I got". Because of my suspicious nature, my first thought is that you may have secured the snakes in a manner that is not quite above board, and are trying to figure out what you have for sake of value. The fact that you will now "take your leave", making your visit the equivalent of an inner city drive-by, really only reinforces the suspicion.

    Go if you'd like. Stay if you'd like. Feel however you choose to feel. That's the beauty of free will. But if you want to learn something about ball pythons, stick around.

    "Too much sass?"
