    It is about 2:45 eastern time & I am takin Jack to the vet. A lot of things could come from this trip to the vet (not the least of which is switching to a female name, LOL) so I am hoping that all goes well! I'll update when we get home! :D

    I don't see any reason to change names if it's a girl. ;)

    freezing and thawing
    :D :D :D :D Well, it's a girl! LOL!!! Of course it is, just one more thing those idiots at the pet store lied about! Doc says that she is just a tad thin but other than that she is healthy as can be. I have to call tomorrow for the analysis on the urrates & poopy. My poor baby was so scared of the vet that she peed on his table. The good news is she is hydrated pretty well cuz there was a good dose of fluid too! :) He says that I am doing an amazing job caring for her & that as long as I continue to love her the way that i am, she will live a long, fruitful & healthy life. He said he loved the way I was caring for her when i held her & he said that she seemed pretty comfortable with me already considering all that she has been through. He said to leave her alone for a week so she can calm down a bit & to wait two more weeks to try feeding. He was really amazing with her too. He was so gentle & caring & he asked me what I planned to feed & when I told him frozen/thawed I thought he was gunna kiss me!! LOL!! He had just gotten a snake last week that got beat up really bad. :cry: But alas, I am in the running for a new name. I just can't call my girl Jack! I might do sumthin as simple as switchin to Jackie or I might go in a whole new direction. I am thinkin Hissy Fits, since she always hisses but never bites. We'll see, gotta talk to my girl & see what she says! Thanks for the supportive good luck wishes! My baby is so beautiful! When i get my pics developed & scanned i will put em up! YAY! Healthy baby!! :D :D :D :D

    Sorta same thing happened to me, we thought the snake was a female, but no, he's a boy. My daughter had already named it Pollyocho, so we switched the spelling to Pauliocho. Good luck, and have fun!

    One nice thing about snakes...they don't get attached to their names the way a dog or cat will. :wink:

    It has been settled, Hissy Fits is her new name!! I love this sweet little girl! I got yelled at today by my girlfriend because I have been paying SO MUCH attention to Hissy. I said "But honey, she is making a HUGE transition, i have to make sure that she is as comfortable as possible so i HAVE to pay this much attention to her." To which my very good natured girlfriend joked "Yeah, & five years from now you will have to pay so much attention to her because I am too fat or my butt got too big." LOL!! My girlfriend is an animal lover though so she totally understands!

    LOL! Well, now you need to go set up a signature bragging on Hissy Fits. ;)

    LOL, i would feel silly having a signature that only lists one herp when all of you have hundreds of them in your homes! LOL!
