but its ok.



Anyways, I dont think things are so black and white. I dont think its always the case that the breeder is at fault. What would you think of a breeder who had both types (a 200g 8mo and a 700g 8 mo)? Did that breeder decide to treat only some of the babies well, and starve the rest? Is any breeder out there with an underweight bp, an irresponsible breeder?



All animals are a risk and a gamble... A seller should disclose any problems, but its up to a buyer to take the risk. A 700g 8 mo. old could stop feeding.



A seller with an 8 mo. old at 200g is also not necessarily lying if they say that the animal is eating great, and its true that the animal is NOW eating great, right?

btw, I also wouldnt buy the 200g 8 month old unless it was a morph that I was in LOVE with, and at a discount I could afford . But that would be the risk I would take.
