Hi guys,
First time poster, long time lurker here. Been interested in getting an antaresia for a while now, but parents have always been very anti-snake-in-the-house (I don't get it - they're so cuddly).
My dad mentioned that a guy at his workplace needs to sell his children's python, enclosure and all as he is moving house. Obviously very early stages of consideration, but I just want to make sure I cover my bases with the seller before I get knee-deep.
I know I should be asking questions about feed cycle, shed cycle and temperament, but is there anything else I should be asking this guy? It's a 7 year-old, so if the temperament isn't great is there any hope of changing this behaviour, or would it be ingrained by this stage? Again - my first snake so trying to avoid anything that would be a handful. If anyone could give me an indication of a reasonable price then that would be greatly appreciated as well (enclosure plus snake).
Cheers!
Andy
