    That was Brian's tip of the week. It works good but for those who don't have one a cotton ball or qtip will do the same. I was not being smart, I just thought you had watched the show.

    Thanks for the tips! I will try tomorrow and see if I cant get it off for her.

    The manager wont let me take her home even though i have stated that I have a great vet lined up. i am willing to spend the money and get her the right setup. She has to wait on corporate. The manager is now also saying that the snake is healthy other than being blind... yes she meant truely blind, in that one eye. She said the snake has always had a bad shed and I said most likely due to the poor setup she is in and the manager still disagrees! And she said the snake has gained weight... but only 18 grams in 3 months! But she will spend thousands on guinea pigs! I dont get it.

    So I have to sit back and wait... and watch them continue force feeding her even though I printed out a paper from here saying she could kill the snake by doing it. I wish some places couldnt sell reptiles they cant properly take care of!

    oh my that is horrible! Someone needs to get that poor girl out of there before she dies. why don't you try and contact corporate yourself? Keep us updated on how she is doing. Congrats to you for trying to save her! :gj:

    are they offering her live? if she was wild caught probably a better bet to get her to eat on her own. also id have to agree with others your care would be better then there care and forec feeding. i wouldnt like food rammed in my pie hole.

    No the snake is captive bred. And yes she is in a horrible situation. She looks good now but is underweight compared to my other ball. There were some recent position changes within corporate so no one is sure of what their job is.. its stupid. But the manager told me that if she doesnt hear from them by the end of the weekend she will ask the store manager what to do with the snake. Hopefully something will be done!

    Good news is I got the eye cap off, she seemed to like me helping out to get it off.
