Would it not have been a whole heck of a lot easier to let people know who you were instead of the subterfuge? FWIW, the mods are real good about sniffing out ghoasts around here.

I'm not a ghost and I didn't put those on my page. I have been off thise forum for a while. I was going to name the snake Monty (hense monty and melissa) but I believe he is a she. I can't access my old account. And I don't know how to get it removed.

About curiosity, my Marshall is very explorative! Especially when I am handling him. He's also pretty adventurous in his cage as well, normally late at night and early morning. His little "adventures" only last about 10 min, 20 at the most. All through the day he is hiding though, unless he is thirsty or switching hides. I think it depends on the snake, my guy is very brave!

As for car rides, I have heard of people taking their big boas on car rides. Actually one person had a boa who actually liked putting its head out the window like a dog.

I am not experienced so don't take my word on this.

A thread was started by Montyandmelissa yesterday evening, and you replied to it as Pillzee, but didn't say anything in the post about
your account being hacked ..................

Huh. I thought you were two separate ppl until I read this.

@gameonpython
I'd say that's the normal behaviour of most ball pythons lol. They are nocturnal so exploring at nighttime is very common as its their up time and daytime is sleep mode.
Also while handling people say its actually better if the snake just "chills" on you as opposed to being active and crawling around as its a sign of it trying to escape or find shelter to hide in (even if its in the crevices of your body), which indicates its afraid and not so relaxed. Even worse if it stays in a ball, then its scared. This is for Bp's though, I know for boa's its a different story, very adventurous snakes.

Yes I sent them an email already

Can you hear me down that hole you are digging?

Good.

So we are to believe that someone has been posting on MontyandMelissa for "a while"?

All of that stuff posted over the last week, maybe even longer was this person who "hacked" your account?

Again, the mods can tell whether this is true or not. Imagine the humility and the embarrassment if they find you are lying...

Look, people make mistakes. People sometime post things they shouldn't. They lose their tempers, they pretend to have knowledge that they don't really have, and they sometimes give out bad advice. The funny thing is that while every post we make is recorded and there for everyone to read, we can also see the maturation and progression of people...and we understand and are tolerant of that process.

In other words, if you are lying, or if you have lied in the recent past...come clean and admit it. Once you admit it and move on, you will find that people usually are pretty understanding and forgive.

However, if the mods find out that MontyandMelissa and Pillzee are the same person and are posting from the same IP address or using a mask, then you are probably done here. No one will ever believe a word you say again.

So, owner of Monty/Unnamed Snake, here's your chance...has someone really hacked your account and has been posting some stupid stuff, or are you just ashamed to admit to your past posts?

Hey there Mo:

If you read the posts by both users (neither has a long history), the picture becomes pretty clear.

My ball python LOVES to wander around inside and outside of his enclosure. He's very curious but shy around a whole bunch of people.

Mine is about 5, I've heard (I adopted him from family who starved him), he looked just like yours too!
I thickened him up quickly by starting with mice fuzzies, small mice, small rats, and finally medium sized rats.
We still have a long way to go but we made progress and he looks (as a nearby petstore said when they saw him) 200% better than before. :)
