to be unhappy with the snake? I mean she did state that the snakes origins were unknown. But she did elude to the fact that it was clean enough that it might be a CB. And clearly it's neither clean nor does it appear to be anything but WC. Her justification for the ticks is that this snake was housed near her WC. But I did ask for a guarantee that it would be parasite free. And well to be honest, I had originally passed on the deal since I was unsure so I deleted our earliest emails from my folders, then a couple days later I changed my mind. So posting on the BOI is pretty much out because eveyone is going to shout "proof" and I've now got none except her last email saying she never saw scars when clearly there are several. The snake is pretty and I didn't pay that much for her, but I really don't want the hastle of taking her to the vet and getting her totally checked over and I don't have time for the whole WC acclimation thing right now. Don't know maybe I can sell her off cheap.
