Thank you i prefer buying dinkers because they are so random wether they prove or not. 90 percent of my snakes are actually WC or CH dinkers that were imported from benin or ghana. I have a few proven cinnamon, queen bee, Ghost (not the wild caught one i have, so as for a red flag i think not i just like my odds of proven a dinker much higher. My interest is not to make profit or anything of a such its my lovely snakes and love em all. P.s. might not breed until a while since im not ready to hanfdle the workload and responsibility. The girl who sold me the ball pythons had to get rid of them because she was moving. Its her word against nature.
