Okay let me point out a few things
I told you what can I do to show you that I am not 17
I sent you some pic of my own snakes
With me in some of them I sent you a pic of me being in a newspaper
And I am sure even with me having a big burm and a 11foot tiger and I told you that I have worked with hots still wasn't good nuff for you.. if you see posts that I have posted on faunan there no damnn corn snake
And I saw a post that yousaid you were 31 on text your saying 41 get your shit right and I also saw a post of you saying your new to snake like a year ago or 2
I have been working with snakes for 6years now
By the way your saying I have no brain you can't text for shit
Dude stop talking shit when you don't even know
My point is that your a waste of time

What ever boy!!!!!! Good luck Mr. Snake!!!!!! I know better than that!!!!!!! and I don't have the time to be back and foward with something that is done already!!!!! I hope that get what ever is that you are looking for!!!!!!

Greg, if he changed his mind about selling you the snake, isn't that his prerogative?

Buyers back out all the time and as far as I know, a seller has that right as well unless there's a contract in place.

both of you need to watch the name calling

Can't say either party's bluster is very attractive, but I very much respect and appreciate Pedro's unwillingness to sell a retic to a minor (any minor). Way too many folks in this hobby will sell whatever to whomever to make a quick buck, and that's a setup for news-making tragedies that further harm all reptile keepers. Kudos to ethical, cautious, responsible sellers - especially those of large constrictors!

Don't you think you might want to start conducting yourself a little differently around here? Im just trying to give you some useful advice, and no, Im not trying to say I am better then you.

If he did not want to sell a any size retic to a young man, he has the right to say no to you. After all, it is his snake.

Now I am only 18 as well, (about to turn 19 in a matter of days), but have you not noticed the way I have been conducting my posts and answers? It is way different then you have been. If you are really 18, grow up a little and realize the man can deny you buying his snake if he wants, and try to use good grammar in your posts, it will help in the long run so much. You don't know how many times I have gone to a post about a snake I have been interested in, and just because the post is like this:" thiz snke 4 sAle txt 4 more pics. peace " I have immediately pressed the back button, if they can't use good grammar, then I don't feel secure enough to contact then about their animals.

Just trying to give a little helpful advice.

YOU may not think 7 feet is large, but it doesn't matter. YOU may have loads of experience, but that also doesn't matter. What matters is federal and state law (and, unfortunately, the court of public opinion) - and the species of the snake in question, not its current length. You may be 18; he thought you were 17, and he exercised his judgment and erred on the side of caution. He doesn't know you personally, so why would he want to risk personal responsibility for any potential risks or liabilities? Can't say I blame him for being skeptical; you are certainly not conducting yourself with any great measure of maturity.

To Pedro: I respect your decision not to sell big snakes, such as retics that WILL get HUGE, to youngsters; HOWEVER, the way you're letting Greg push your buttons, your reactions are is causing me to lose that respect for you. Handle yourself professionally and don't let him get under your skin.

To Greg: It looks like Pedro's made his decisions, which is fully within his rights to do so. While this may not be what you wanted, it is what it is and the way you're handling yourself is not going to help your cause. If you want people to believe you are mature, act it!

greg.. you really are making your self look immature... i would never ever sell to you... im 17 and work with boas... i wouldnt even sell you a boa... your one of those people in the reptile hobby that thinks its "cool" that you have a 20 foot boa.. but have no respect for the animal knowing it very easily could grab you and kill you in a matter of minutes..... the age part honestly doesnt matter... i have refused to sell to a 40 year old man before because he had no clue what he was doing.. in your other post you try and state that you own HOTS... so what? i can handle hots along with anyone else in this world... but that doesnt mean your properly trained to do so... i hope now anyone that even considers selling you a snake gets on the boi and sees the way you talk like you kow what your doing with a snake.. it is clear you dont have the maturity level to be dealing with snakes... i wouldnt even sell you a corn snake for crying out loud.... you will be the next person on the news show off his amazing burm thats 20 feet long because its "cool" and you think everyone will be impressed then some innocent kid gets hurt because your trying to be "cool"....... your attitude is ridiculous.... almost everyone on here would agree... they wouldnt sell to you now... i know i wouldnt...
