I guess I can see your point, but that's not really the snake's fault. I dunno. I just couldn't let the animal suffer with them because I don't like their behaviour. I'd take it if it were near me.

I would love to take it and add it to my collection, however, I don't have the money to travel down to pick it up and I don't feel comfortable with paying money for a snake that has been neglected. I wish I could take the snake. The boyfriend said they were doing saline baths as well as soaking it in betadine. I just wonder why they are selling off their whole collection of snakes.

I drove 2 hours and spent $50 on a neglected gecko and its setup, but I realise most people won't do that. Still, I'm glad I've got her and can give her a better home than that jackass. Have you suggested a reptile rescue to them? You can probably find one in your area, and hopefully they'd be willing to give it up.

Hopefully they've realised they're idiots and will never own another snake again (yeah right).
