yes, ed has been contacted and responded saying he would "look into it".
at the time of the trade he said that the snakes were captive bred 2005 females and stated "all my stuff is as clean as you will find." (i am copying that quote directly from an old e-mail about the transaction.)
i suspect that these females were likely actually from a group of ch/farm hatched or imported bps that he purchased wholesale to resell, since at the time he was selling a lot of females that were about the same size and age as these girls.
i weighed bree on friday and she weighs 435 grams. that is what the girls that i hatched in september of 2006 weigh. hopefully once she is finished with her course of medication her good eating habits will actually put some weight on her.
