    age has nothing to do with knowledge... i know many 12 year olds that know waaaaaay more than many 40 year olds!!!

    when something is your passion, it's amazing how much you end up learning about it.

    oh and happy birthday!!!

    That's really not the best way to get others to want to help you. You came on here soliciting advice, and when you didn't like Marshall's advice, you insulted him. Nice!

    Age is not a good indicator of ability or knowledge. You asked for help, you were offered it.

    I would suggest you carefully read over the caresheet for ball pythons on this forum and check that you are caring for these two snakes as it advises to. If you are indeed keeping them together they are best seperated as these snakes do not need or want companionship or a "cage buddy". They may have done okay up until now but sometimes dominance and stress takes awhile to show with snakes.

    Any change in their setup needs to be followed by a week or so of settling in, quiet time and then you could try to offer their food at that point and see how it goes.

    There could be a number of reasons they are refusing, some serious, some no big deal really but addressing any husbandry concerns is always number one with me if one of my snake's won't eat.

    You may also wish to read this thread on why it's NOT a good thing to house two balls in the same enclosure:

    i have to agree with mr python on his advice. also, i can not believe that he gave that kind of response to the advice. i guess some people just can't handle being told and realizing that they are wrong. Oh and roez if you are an adult work on the grammar and spelling before you start criticizing an 8th grader for trying to help you out, python is knowledgeable from what i have read on the forums. and HAPPY 13th man.

    You might also want to consider TROLLING LESS before people smack your reputation points down so low you get effectively neutered in terms of being able to so much as post.
