Freshly shed pics...

KenCasstevens Jan 24, 2007 01:28 AM

When my albino Sonoran gopher shed this morning I just couldn't help but to take some pics. It's hard to believe that someone just turned her in to the local pet store I go to. She didn't even know what kind of snake it was. My guess is it was her sons snake, and it creeped her out so she got rid of it. At any rate I'm glad she's here now. She is soo sweet. Probably one of the most calm snakes I've ever had. Hope you enjoy the pics.

Adam, I swear you would be hooked. These guys have personalities you wouldn't believe.

Adam I just checked out the web site for the pet store you work at. Looks like you guys run a really cool place. Everything looked clean, and it sounds like you have a lot to offer. I am sooo tired of those pet "super stores". I actually had one refuse to sell me a feeder rat because it had color, and the girl liked the way it looked. Needless to say (I was in a bad mood anyway)once I was through going off on the manager he wanted to give me every rat they had, but I left. Those places make me sick.

Thanks Ken, we defiantly work hard to keep it nice and clean, and we sell a ton of rats for food wether it has color or not we dont sell dumbos for food though unless you are willing to pay 10 bucks for a meal, then it is all yours. but yeah we are the reptile superstore for the state, it defiantly a fun environment, and the best part is we bring in what we want not what "corporate" tells us

have a good day man
