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.

    Yup I total understand what your saying! And I do agree with you... But if you read the post she wrote flipping out and jumping to conculsion you will understand how I feel. I just think it was totally not needed...

    Wow, now "I" have to spread some love before giving more reputation.

    I couldn't have said it better myself. If I've spent the time that I've spent trying to help in this thread, and I see continued questions, with no acknowledgement that you've even read my suggestions, I'm not likely to spend my time composing another reply to future requests for assistance.

    Because I called my vet and she said to hold off..Might be because of the cold weather lately and told me to see if my snake gets better in 2 days.. Which it did, but now the sounds have came back and I have decided no more waiting is needed.. thats why im bring her in 2molo.

    As you were told, if a vet gave you that advice, find another. No one with any knowledge would advise you on the phone not to bring in a snake that is making popping and wheezing sounds. 2 days is not going clear up a RI.

    And ... RI's don't clear up by themselves ... ANYONE with even a ace hairs worth of experience knows that. :sweeet:
