if it is a problem feeder maybe you should look elsewhere or wait until it is feeding ok before purchasing it.
at least the women in the pet shop has told you about the problem.
goodluck.  |

yeah i would be waiting and would buy from a respected breeder.... if you wait a little while there will be plenty around fo ryou to choose from... and it will be worth the wait.... and especially for your first snake its best that everything is running relatively smoothly....
good luck...

there will be plenty more pretty ones believe me....
just think how bad you would feel if you bought it and took it home and loved it..... then couldnt get it feeding and either had to sell it or worse???
i know you are really really excited about it which is good but you have to step back and think whats best for you and the animal.... maybe that stimmi in the petshop will go to someone with alot of experience who can get it feeding.... not to say that you can't..... its just not worth the stress... and believe me coming from someone whos had 5 problem feeders, one of which was my first snake its very stressful and upsetting.....

It does look like your set on the one you have found , but i highly recomend looking else where , get one that has had no feeding trouble .
