WOW, I was supposed to trade this guy my 7' 08' lavender albino retic male for a 1.1 pair of baby albino boas. I was even throwing in a 36" neo that he could use temporarly, a heat lamp and a xl exo terra water bowl, then he backed out saying his wife wouldn't allow another large snake in the house meanwhile he said he had something like a 6' and a 15' retic and then he hit me back saying he could do it for 1 boa and then we set it all up for me to come to his house over the weekend and he was going to send me his address on sunday morning via e-mail (I did have other e-mail as well but they got deleted) and then blew me off again with no response to my e-mails probably because he thought I was coming to get your snakes back for you and he got scared! LOL! Sounds like a real loser for a "33 year old man"! Here are the e-mails sent back and forth between him and I. I also found him while browsing Craigslist which is where I originally inquired about the albino boa's. This guy is so back and forth I should have known something wasn't right, anyway I would say buyer beware!

I will be home around 5:30pm and can leave to head that way around 6pm once I let my dogs out and it will probably take me an hour and a half to two hours to get there depending on traffic. Yeah he will come with the neo, XL exo terra water bowl, 8" dome lamp with switch and 75 watt bulb, 3 jumbo f/t rats that I have left.

Here are a few pics of him in the neo. The neo has had some good years put on it but it cleaned up nice and should work well as a spare cage for you and theres a 8" lamp w/75 watt bulb(I think) duct taped over one of the vents for now and that is keeping the neo between 80-85 thruout the day so I'll leave that attached as well. Just let me know when you are ready, I do have to run to the berks reptile show in Pa tomorrow to complete another trade so that will consume most of my day until tomorrow evening.
thanks,
Jeff

Thats it as far as snakes right now other than him I just have a 66% het albino ball and an adult amel corn but Im keeping the corn as a pet Ive had her about 7years and the ball I got from a guy for free because he has shedding problems, can't figure out why he is the only snake Ive ever had get stuck shed like he does and it appears that both of his eyes have atleast some damage, but he seems to be able to locate prey no problem and he'll follow my hand so It doesn't seem to bother him much and he thrives in his enclosure. mostly I work with dragons and a few crested geckos now but i miss my boas, I do have a sub-adult trio of dragons I may be letting go of soon 1 green/orange trans male , 1 hypo/lucy female, 1 ogg x blood female but I haven't decieded for sure yet. Def let me know when they're ready, just curious when is their hatch date? have they shed and ate yet or is that what your waiting on?
Thanks,
Jeff

Here are a couple pics of him form this morning, he ate 2 f/t jumbos last night, he's a great eater and should produce some smokin babies I just don't have a female or cash to purchase a lav. super tiger fem which was my original intent so I figured someone else could do better with him.

Id love to trade him for a pair of your baby albinos 1.1 if possible, I can even throw you a large exo-terra water bowl and I have 3 extra jumbos to go with him as well. Let me know, I sold off my boas last year and Ive been dying to get some boas again.
Thanks

I have a 7' male lavender albino retic, almost as thick as a baseball and he is bob clark stock. He is a little cage agressive and can be irratable at times due to his prior owner feeding him in his cage and feeding him live but I have had him for 2-3 months and immediatly switched him to f/t jumbos and he slams 2 every tuesday and just slammed 2 a few minutes ago out of my hand in the bath tub. Once he's out of his cage he is fairly manageable but very inquisitive, he does have a slight cleft lip but not bad and it doesn't effect him in any way, he has very nice patterns with heart and purple centered yellow flower shapes. I attached a few pics so check him out and let me know what you think.
Thanks
