I found out 1 reason shes not eating, because she has RI I hear her breathing raspy and blowing bubless and breathing with her mouth open. I didnt catch this earlier because i didnt look at her but for a sec when i first got her i the mail to reduce stress. Im so mad though because the guy I bought her from wont give me a refund or anything.

Zac-
I am sorry and angry to read of your plight and that of your baby blood. I assume by now you have sought veterinary help. Some hopeful news is that RI infections clear up reasonably well with antibiotics (Baytril)and increased envionmental heat. The crime is that you have to deal with this event when you shouldn't have to....let us know how you're doing...

There is a BOI on the fauna boards if you would like to let the public know about your bad experience with this breeder. I know its tough to deal with, but it will be ok. If you need some references to more reputable breeders in the future just let us know. Sorry for your loss.

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. It's tough. I've had two bad deals over the internet myself, and it sucks.
I've found that it's worth the extra money to buy from a good, well known breeder. I'm sure if you ask, many people would give recommendations for a few.
They're wonderful snakes, I think you should give it another try 
Here's my favorite, Lilith. I got her 2 years ago from NERD.
