Posting this here to support the auctions section because I think it seems like a neat idea.
So... I'll just mostly copy another ad I saw doing this and place a starting bid price of $200, the auction ends on Saturday at 12 midnight EST. Increased bids in increments of at least $10 seems good to me.
~Fast Details~
I got this Silver Streak girl from Jason Brock of Hippie Herps, the photo is his. I recently dropped my phone in water, aaand lost everything including my ability to take photos. For several months she refused to eat, and had to be forcefed at the vet. She is a subadult, I was never given her exact age but I think late 2014...
she is 719g empty.
~In depth details~
I have gotten her to eat 3 meals in a row now, and I feel comfortable letting her go to another home. She's beautiful of course, and a great snake overall, though she can be moody at times and a dubious feeder if you aren't experienced at feeding.
She's not outright nasty, she only will strike if she's in shed or badly startled and even then she always aims to miss really. She's more shy than anything else, not really what I would term as aggressive.
She will only eat if she's housed comfortably and she can hide herself really good. Then once she's comfortable she will eat in a closed box or something like it, placed on a heat pad or in a warm area so she doesn't get cold and just leave her for a bit. If she doesn't take the mouse that way, sticking the mouse's head into her mouth if you can get her to bite will also work, but braining the mouse works even better. She eats f/t adult mice or sometimes small rats. !!Never!! feed her live. That would traumatize her.
If you need to know anything more about her, let me know! For a sub adult silver streak, I've set the bid quite low I figure so hopefully despite her quirks that will generate some interest.
~Shipping is still $50 more through SYR.com!!
**Side Note:
Oh... and to anyone who saw my eh, excessive second paragraph in any of my comments... that was a bit of a faux pas accident on my part. I thought it was something like a bio section rather than a signature and added it after getting nearly conned by a guy, I sounded more than a bit like a nutball and quite inappropriate. My apologies to any threads I commented on and had no idea it sounded like I was blasting anyone I talked to with accusations. My bad! Many sorries.
