I couldn't agree with you any more! But, this snake was so sickly looking, I can't imagine anybody, even somebody who doesn't know a lick about snakes, would purchase it. I'm dying to go back to the store but I can't until early next week.

Based on the pics that Dr. Del showed, the poor fella looks nothing like that.

If he is dehydrated, how long would it take for a snake to reach the point I'm describing? Could it be just days or does it sound like something that happened over weeks? I want to get all my facts straight before I say something.
