I just wanted to comment on the origin of the holes. Does anyone else think it's possible that they were caused by an abscessed tooth/teeth that drained through the jaw (or another injury to the inside of the mouth that became infected - maybe from sharp substrate or something)? I don't have experience with that in reptiles (and I am not a vet), but I have seen that happen in horses before (obviously a much bigger wound, but similar looking). It doesn't really look like a fresh bite mark to me, although I guess it's hard to say for sure from the pics.
Thank you Shelly. I honestly have no clue what caused this, and I want to. This prompted me to move another step thus far. Kelly told me this snake came from
Christian Gonzalez in Tucson/Pythonidae Empire. I've seen his stuff, you've seen his stuff..... there is NO WAY he makes ROOKIE mistakes.... (I'd like to hear something from him in regards to that)
Now, she is blaming the 'scaring' on him, correct, if you read back in here, she says the Granite female
came to her like this.... Let's see if Christian can confirm or deny this
"lie."
And fwiw..
I was never disclosed ANY issues on this snake at all, and I could see nothing wrong with it at all that day in the parking lot. Still, nobody deserves a basket case animal unless they are doing a straight rescue of some type, which I don't do. I only buy mint, bulletproof stuff that is a fine example of it's being for future projects, I can't allow junk into my home.
Kelly - A receipt from a Vet is moot my friend, I dont' want/need anything from you. I have 2 that I call friends on speed dial, after a dozen years of doing this semi-pro, they are friends.... A Vet visit for me, from the one that WILL remain un-named, is a drop by at my house, if, you catch my drift. You can thank me for fixing that issue correctly, rather than just "dabbing Neosporin" on it. That wasn't working Kelly.
Let me say this again......
I don't want anything, I am trying to put this out there for the safety of the community on you.. And below is why:
1) You
will pawn a 'basket case' animal off on someone else.. I wondered why there were no pics in your ads, and why they aren't advertised on these 'larger' sites..
2) You
will 'talk' bad enough about the person that complains that you will get what I am going to dub, "The AZ Rat Pack" to ridicule, post, and continue, and continue, and continue like a group of school girls to no end. I am still getting childish emails, calls, and texts. I do believe that Samantha, Kaitlin, and Kelly are behind these childish rants, if you've seen the stuff on FB, there is no doubt.
3) My professional opinion on the "other" Granite I was gonna buy that day... You said she was 500 grams. You don't want my opinion on what I think she should have weighed... I'll just say she was 'under weight' and THAT, is why I left her with you. I wanted two of them, and had the cash for her w/o a doubt.
I've done my homework on each of you at this point, and, you three have provided me with all types of heartache and laughs over the past few days. I'm patient and a rather nice guy, so, I am going to now sit back and watch the three of you spin your webs and see where we are at in time. Time reveals all. I'd love to see this thread be an isolated incident, but I know that is a farce.
Samantha - YOU need to reach out to the Miller family. There, no 3rd party BS.
Kaitlin - You got it on not contacting you, I have never have, or had, and would never... you got nothing that interests me to be sweet, short and cordial. I sent you a PM to keep my name out of your rather large mouth, only after your repeated attempts to defame me with your Facebook drama posts. That was it. FWIW, your post making fun of an overpriced 530 gram Pastel female of my girlfriends at $400 being a 'rip-off' was the original ignition in all of this. I knew it was directly related to this incident. So, it was
YOU that the community and Kelly owe praise to. Kudos on earning that title.
So, in the end. Let's see what Christian has to say, IF, the snake came from him, and, I wanna know how long ago that was that she got this from him.. I'm wondering if stuff gets a QT at Kell's place.
on this animal, I am good with it...
