Chinese king rat snake and a madagascar giant hognose. I've got a king rat myself and I'm still looking for a malagasy giant hog. Great pickups!

I have seen some nice stuff from snakesatsunset but was always worried about the quality since the prices seemed almost too good to be true and most of their stuff is wc. Perhaps I'm just over cautious >_>

WC animals, regardless of who I've purchased them from, almost always have some kinds of parasites. I just figure in the cost of treating them into the total cost of ownership which means WC often end up being more expensive. I can say snakesatsunset sent me snakes well hydrated and with good body condition so the animals they sent me were fair enough, now it's up to me to do the rest from here. I work with an ARAV vet who doubles as a keeper herself.

Always nice to have a vet with hands on expierence istead of one with only in class lessons that thinks thats enouth to know about all issues on all species.

Reptmart. Both hoggies ate straight away one on tuna scented rodents and one is eating frog legs. One of the kings has already taken ft rodents, one still holding out may use a live pink if it doesn't eat in the next week.
