BP not Eating

[Zincubus]

I do go to Pet Stores at least 2 times per week, and all of them only have 1 hide for snakes in them do to limited space, i guess? I know now you need 2 obviously, but as a Early potential buyer at the time, i believed that the pet stores i visited had it "right"... so new BP owners should be aware of any advice or visual examples given by Pet Stores, yes???

Na .. you’re best doing loads of research many pet store assistants know less than zero about snakes or only give misinformation out .

One of our local stores had a viv containing about 7 young snakes !

Even more incredible is there was a mix of Royal pythons and baby Boas !!

One hide had two snake heads protruding .. one Royal and one Boa !!

To the untrained eye they were all happy as Larry but I doubt that all the Royals were eating regularly ( if at all ) .


Many still sell the snake , viv/tank and a heat mat but no thermostat. (Plus they sell those useless, plastic stick-on Exo Terra thermometers ! )
