From what i've found, petSMART isnt supposed to carry snakes..but their policies have changed recently or something, or it could be the fact that it is hatchling season and they want to get in on the money.

when i was first looking for a place to get my girl from i ended up at petsmart and petco, and petsmart said bluntly that they did not, and would not, ever, stock snakes. ..guess that has changed since i was in there earlier in the week getting a tag for my kitten and they had two ,albeit, healthy looking bp hatchlings in an enclosure. petco's animals always look awful. these guys at least looked like they had the right humidity and hiding places..but still.
