    He sounds like he came thru life in the store unusually well- pet stores are generally stressful places, & also have many risks for the transmission of mites & diseases. I'm glad to hear he finally got the loving home he deserves. You sound a little doubtful that he's been there his whole life too- I have a hunch that he might have been sold to someone & then returned after a time -often times young kids beg for a pet, then lose interest- especially something low-key like a snake- & possibly the store didn't want to risk giving you those sort of details? I guess you'll never know, but I wouldn't worry about it. He's happy with you & you're happy with him- that's what counts.
