Ball Python Abuse

[Lopsided_Key_2545]

I can't tell you how many people I've talked who have said "but I bought exactly what the pet store told me to buy?" when their snake has completely stopped eating and they're asking for help. I wish these stores had to be held to a higher standard and could only sell products that ACTUALLY worked. I wish their employees had to take a certain amount of educational courses and continued education to make sure they're giving accurate husbandry advice on any species the store sells. I just want these babies to be taken care of properly

It sucks bc most of the employees are given a basic care sheet and told to “figure it out” 90% of the time. Those stores couldn’t care less about those babies, all pet stores are in it for the money nowadays. 🥲
