My daughter has been diagnosed with Chrones disorder, and our uninsured medical cost are getting too high.  I cannot continued to spend $60/month on rats for all of my snakes.  Unfortunately Eingana, Lola and Vesperia need new homes.  I have two custom enclosers that can go with two of them.

Eingana is a 4 year old bright Jungle Carpet Phyton Female.  She's a little over 6'.  and has a custom/modified tank that can go with her, heat lamp and furniture too.  I think she would be valuable to a breeder, because she has some of the brightest yellow I have ever seen on a mature jungle.

Lola is a Cancun strain Mexican Boa.  She was rescued (for $105) from a pet store which was starving her and had burnt her, and let her suffer through mites and worms.  She was supposed to be two when I got her a little over 3 years ago.  She's in great health now, but small even for a cancun at only about 4.5'.  She comes with a custom built home, furniture and all.

Vesperia is a Brazilian Rainbow Boa.  She just turned two, and is about 3' long.  she out of Rainbows R Us stock,I still have her breeder card.  No cage, as she has a combo custom with the one snake I'm keeping.  I do have extra furniture and such for her.

I do not want to ship these animals, but am willing to meet within a reasonable distance.

Sorry to hear about your daughter. If you change you mind about shipping them let me know. Being that I am in KY that would be my only option.

Do you have a picture of the Brazilian rainbow boa?
And why exactly don't you want to ship? It's really rather simple.

Where exactly in NorCal do you live?

Also how much are you asking for the BRB? I Would like to know where as well, I may have someone over there who can pick it up for me so you don't have to ship

To try and answer everyone....

I realy don't want to ship them, unless I know exactly where/who they are going to.  In truth I don't want to get rid of them (though I must,) so I would rather meet the person taking them, to see what they are like.  I don't want someone who owns some little dirty petshop to pick them up and sell them to some 13 year old who can't care for them.  Also; I have never shipped a snake, don't really know how, and don't want to incur the shipping costs.  I don't know the shipping rules for other states, and do not want to get into any trouble.  Price for snakes:  nothing  I want someone who cares for them and will not turn around and sell them.  My carpet is a big sweetie, and I would be devistated if she was miscared for.  I would assume someone would want her and the BRB for breeders as they are both beautiful specimens, I will try to get pictures tomorrow, don't want to mess with it today.  The cancun needs to just have a good home, she was a rescue in the first place, and I think she's stunted from her previous life.  I'm also debating on my Ball, but she is such a nice animal im not sure, and I'm definately keeping my corn, because everyone plays with her, and she is the smallest eater in the bunch.

I can understand the fear of letting them go to someone who wont care for them and I know it doesn't help much but I guarantee if we take the BRB it will be cared for excellently, has been on the list for a long long time.
I am interested in it but I am across the country....
I do know someone over that side and if he is close enough he will pick it up for me, would that be acceptable?

And if so may I have some background info?
How often does she eat and what is she eating.
has she ever had any health problems that you know of?
full sheds and no problems there?
And again, a picture would be nice when you get a chance

Could you post a picture of the carpet as well? The friend who would pick up the BRB for me is possibly interested in the carpet python for himself.
