Personally, I don't think snakes should be sold until they've had their first shed and a few meals. However, I've seen a lot of breeders do this. I think it is important that they are making people aware that they are buying a snake that hasn't shed or eaten yet. I bought a spider that had shed and only ate one meal. It's always been a problem eater since I've had it, but I knew that from the beginning. It was basically sold to me as a problem eater. I think part of it may be your friends problem for not inquiring about it. I know that your friend is new to the game, but it is important to do all your research ahead of time. I would contact the breeder and ask for advice about what to do with it. Maybe they will trade it for a started baby.
