    Please tell me you at least got my "good side". http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...ley/Neener.gif If I'm going to be featured in Jamie's new series "Herpers Gone Wild" I'd at least like to look nice for an old broad. LOL

Nothing "funny" in that for me.

    If you indeed bothered to do what's right by this snake, post a pic of it's improved setup and confirm it saw a vet and is under treatment. I'll be the first to apologize for my harsh post at that point. Other than that I stand by every character I typed and my opinion that any snake, normal or pricey morph, deserves the best it can get from it's human keeper.

    Im sorry but you would of lost your money.. If you were to put money down.. Last night after work I did go buy a new hide and a heat lamp and did book a vet appointment for 2molo.. I just don't think theres a need for people to come back and confirm with you and say "YES SIR" I took your advice!! Your not the snake police or any thing like that... No need to be upset, you gave your advice which is nice.. BUt don't expect people to listen word for word or come back and confirm with you... The only reason I did't bring her to the vet is because I spoke with the vet and she told me to hold off a bit and see if she gets better.. She said it might just be the temp drop from the weather.. I think everyone wants the best for there pets and would do everything in there power to make them well.. So please don't talk in a way that im a snake abuser or something like that.. I love my snakes just like you love your snake.. I do understand where your comming from.. but no need to get upset.. I know there are people who don't care about there pets but im not one of them...

    Actually, the sweat didn't help at all ... the key was a white shell toe, 12 1/2.

    Actually, that's just good manners. And it's called "dialogue" and "communication." LOTS of people come here with serious issues that they need help with. And many of us spend a LOT of time typing out detailed answers to do our very best to help them. Why??? Do we get paid to do this? No. Are OUR animals or lives affected by how someone else resolves husbandry issues? No. We do it because we care. And the only reward we EVER get is when someone we've helped comes back and says, "Hey, I went and got some new hides and called the vet. I'll let you know how things turn out next."

    ....Takes a fraction of the amount of time to type that out, that others have spent trying to help you.

    So no...there's no law...no rule....that says you have to come back and let us know you've listened to a word anyone has said. But it sure as heck helps. Besides the fact that it's the only "payback" any of us get for all the time we spend helping...it's in YOUR own best interest because it allows us to see that you ARE trying and you respect us enough to listen and communicate back to us...which in turn makes everyone a lot more likely to continue to spend their time helping you out.
