The petstore has a pueblan  a lot of the times if you have to force feed a snake, it probably is stressed or some other problem could be associated with it. personally, i wouldnt buy it if i were you, but if you are absolutely interested, find out from the store on the policy of animals if you would buy it and it dies. hope that helps!

The petstore has a pueblan  I went thru the force feed thing and I bet that snake doesn’t need to be fed that way,I had to make my snake mad to get it to eat,because it never ate from the day it hatched,I waited 2 months til I did what I did.And the bad thing about what they are doing is they are feeding it fish.Some pet stores do what they do because it is what they hear or what a customer said.I bet if they put that snake in the back,out of the pubic eye,and left alone for a week it would eat by its self.Most breeders will not sale a snake til it eats once or twice and not til its first shed.Somethings happen and sometimes the only thing is to complain or buy the snake at a discount price.I never jammed a pinkie down my snakes throat when I mad it mad it would grab it and I would hold it til it started to eat it and I would let it do the rest,but I always put the pinkie in the tank for a day it I did what I did.That snake eats great now one day I put the pinkie in their and it ate,and has been eating every 5 days now.
