    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I do apologize if I made the mistake of calling him a girl. I was referring to Dude as a term that shouldn't be used in a business deal. If you use dude or bro in your business dealings remind me never to do business with you.

Taken out of context, many words can be disrespectful. I'm with Rich though, I don't hesitate to shoot off an email saying "Hey Bro, how's she eating now that she been there a month?" and I know it's okay with the buyer. I know it's okay because I'm extremely picky with whom I sell to first off, and I won't sell to anyone who I get an uptight vibe from. IMHO, that's asking for trouble. Does laid back mean less professional? Heck no! It does drop the drama quotient in my experience.

As far as this seller, and this buyer, seems like a done deal. I personally think neither are very stellar. Seller, shame on you for misrepresenting a snake. If that ball is a yearling, I'll fry up my Goliath bird eater and eat him. And buyer, shame on you for crying minor! If you're old enough to buy a reptile you're old enough not to stand behind your youth and cry foul.
 
In my opinion, it's alright for the buyer to point out his age. It does really feel like the seller is trying to take advantage of his age and inexperience. I really don't like that facebook screenshot, she's definitely piling in onto this guy. Running ahead with the aggression so he'll back down when it's obviously her fault.

On your decision to decide to keep the python. It's not in horrible health but, on one hand, she's got your cash to do more whatever (breed more balls?), on the other hand, she'll obviously not take good care of it if you return it.

I don't know much about ball pythons (not my thing), but I really think it's impossible your guy could actually be a yearling. She's probably lying about the age.
 
After soaking you can use a moist wash cloth and rub the the body from head to tail, as this will help remove stuck sheds. Constipation can take from 1 soak to many till that lil bugger releases it.

Snake isnt in any harms way right now so dont stress over it

Bingo. Just needs some TLC. It's not in any way in a life threatening situation. Just need to get it on regular feedings and get that stuck shed taken care of and you'll be set with that pretty lil Ball Python friend! Welcome to the addiction that is reptiles!
