We have begun to see an alarming trend of this type of "ad" -not only on the internet but in local newspapers as well. Sadly, what we have come to find out is that these people are collecting unwanted reptiles and re-selling them, in many cases calling themselves breeders. We also have several area pet stores doing this as well.

We have even met one of these "breeders" at a reptile expo where they gave us a snake so badly damaged, we had to have it euthanized.

I know that there is probably no one here who would pay attention to such a post but please alert others in different communities as to what is going on. 9 times out of 10 these animals are not getting the care they deserve -these people are only interested in lining their pockets with money -not giving the animals proper care.
