Thanks, Joe!

ask about it's history, past ailments, parents (breeding porpouses), habits, feeding, sheding etc.

look for a muscular animal, with good definition, look for alertness, activity, check over the body and eyes especially for mites or scars, and check the vent area for any clogging, or debri...... and last of all pick a snake that has a pattern you like.

you could also get the vendor's # incase of questions/problems.

yes everything that snakehunter said...make sure the snake has fed before for that breeder. that's one of the most important things.
