thats totally weird, never heard of them either, definately have to let us know what they really have and show piccies.

this reminds me of my surprise kingsnake. i was getting a snake off some guy my bf works with, my fella went and got it an paid for it so i never got to see it before i owned it lol, it was sold to me as a cornsnake.
anyway, it turned up and i took one look at it and said 'thats not a corn!'
it turned out to be a grey banded kingsnake, hes a sweetie and really docile, about 4ft and very pretty but he is fasting, not that im worried cos hes way too fat anyway.
hope you get a nice snake and are able to help it have a nice life like i did for the king, those ppl have no idea what theyre doing and shouldnt be allowed to get any more pets.
