Back on topic, I have bought two snakes from S&S-a male Emerald Tree Boa and a female Suriname boa. The Emmy was a import and came with an added bonus of mites and was a picky feeder-but no real complaints as I knew he was WC specimen (you get what you pay for) although it would have been nice if they had at least gotten rid of the mites. The suri as well came with mites, which was a little more vexing as she was supposedly captive bred. She eats like a champ and has been healthy otherwise, though. All in all, a mixed bag-if you can go there in person to inspect your animal, and know what to look for, ( I made the mistake of sending the hubby to pick our two up) then you might get a nice animal-but I sure wouldn't order over the internet. I would definitely steer clear of their Ball Pythons-their feeding routine consists of throwing a handful of fuzzies into a cage containing about 50 hatchlings, and I've heard some other rumors about certain viruses being present in them.
