Piedball ball pythons huh? Sounds like someone is pulling your leg. I'm assuming they did'nt actually show up with the snakes you just "got a phone call"
A lot of people like to "donate" animals to zoos it makes them feel like a bigshot.
And the fact they called you does'nt mean their next move was to release the animal in the wild. So there is is no logic in your comment. Just because someone offers a zoo a high dollared animal does'nt necessarily mean that animal is'nt getting appropriate care all it means is they are ready for whatever reason to get rid of their pet.
