So, you started that other post for another reason? HMM. HAHA..

[atp151415]

just a thought... it might not be his fault that they are as skinny as they are. if he just got them, then it's probably the previous owners fault that they are malnourished, not the current.

On top of him saying that they are eating and everything for him. And even if it is the previous owners fault for that you dont sell a sick animal even if you say its sick

well its time for the heel of ball-pythons.net to chime in, this is bad not only are they not pastels but very under weight, im tired of these jerks that are screwing up the market of the animal we all love, when this happens i wish we could all come together on a special post adviseing people to stay away from thses people, untill somthing is done these losers are going to ruin the hobby and the value of these great snakes,

[SUPERBALLS]

and how can you claim yourself as a reptile breeder your almost at as much fault as the person who sold you them

[m0esgirl]

hey you guys are all talking about those snakes being skinny and underweight cuz of their body shape, and all of my snakes look like that! i just got them a little less than a month ago, they were babies and when weighed none were over 65 grams. i have fed them once and only four of them ate. i read that if they reject their food, just wait and try it next week but now im getting nervous and thinking about trying again tonight! should i try to double feed by waiting until they've swallowed almost all of their first one and then all sneaky like put another one in their mouths?

[SUPERBALLS]

your probably alright the point is nobody should sell there animals until there eating and healthy, its not the cunsomer that should have to make sure there animal is healthy when they buy it its the breeders responibilty as a so called breeder to make sure there ready, and also to tell people what they really are, as far as im conserend the person who sold those animals as healthy pastels is a scum bag, if there yours that hatched out dont worry just keep feeding them but dont try to sell them that way, if anyone sells me a snake like that trust me there going to get hell from me

This snake was 65 grams right out of the egg.
There is no way a 65 gram snake looks as thin as the ones posted.

yes good point, giving us further evidence this person is full of it

[sg1trogdor]

in no way shape or form am I defending the OP but those pics of fresh hatchlings are a little misleading because they are always really fat right outta the egg because of all that yummy yolk in their belly. Please by all means correct if I am wrong on that. (And yes if you are wondering I do agree that those are underweight animals just wanted to throw that other info out there. )
