I guess let me first start off with a congratulations type of thing. Although I'm not sure that is in order because from the photo this looks like a case of a snake doomed for the freezer. The congratulations is because it's always exciting and fun to hatch out something like that. God know I'm still waiting to hatch out my two headed albino prasina (Walt, that better be genetic like you said).

I would also like to say I was very happy to see you offering the snake for the price you did. I think that was a fair price for a snake that even with one head is great to work with. Greed didn't come into play when you came up with that price and that's a quality that's hard to find in this day and age. I'm getting tired of seeing people trying to capitalize on a genetic flaw like that, I mean, asking $20 or $30k is just silly but it shows the person true colors and give some insight as to what they're doing in this hobby. It's easy to see you on the other hand must be doing it for the love of snakes.

Thanks for the photo and I hope the snake has some will to live, I hope it will start eating on it's own. If not I'm sure you'll do the right thing. At the very least I would think someone would give you close to the price your asking even if it is in a jar. Or maybe you could donate it?

Good luck,
Adam Block
