my email conversation with DTS
Actually, I am done with your scam. You received healthy and happy candoia and a healthy frenata and egg eaters and the frenata is a 300 dollar snake so if you gave it away or sold it to your friend, that is your issue. I do not wish to discuss these matters further as it is my perception that you are trying to take advantage of a good deal and do not call to harass.

Dan, I don't know where we stand on this. I bought from you thinking you where a reputable dealer and the snakes where in good shape. This hole thing has been a nightmare. If this Frenata dies I will be out 310 plus the 75 on the egg eater. I will not settle for that. Please let me know what we can do about this. I am willing to ship the Frenata back for a refund or try and hold on to it and hope it survives, but if it dosn't, what can be done? I am a breeder and I have never had a snake die from eating while in shed. expecially to think that a small finch egg liquid going down a snake would be called a lump?? they do not take the egg all the way down. Please let me know what we can work out, Thanks Andy
