    I'm sorry

    Hi, I just wanted to say I'm really sorry. For asking a lot of dumb questions and doing almost everything wrong. I thought I knew everything about ball pythons! Turns out I can't even keep the temperature right. Thank you to everyone who's answered my dumb questions lol. And I'm sorry.

    Don't be sorry for asking questions and trying to fix problems. The ones who should be sorry are those who don't try to correct their mistakes and then they end up with a sick or dead animal.

    You are asking questions to learn.

    The he ones that are a problem are the ones who ask then spout their mouths off as to why everyone is wrong and they are right lol

    keep asking questions!

    Asking questions is the way to knowledge. I did great in school, and on the job training because of one reason... I ask tons of questions, and I listen to the answers. That is how I learned everything I know about ball pythons too! I asked questions, from the most basic to the more complex. I am in debt to the members of this forum for answering my questions and educating me, and after a thousand questions, I am now an expert on husbandry. My next step is to learn breeding, and I will be asking lots of "stupid" questions about it, because that is how I will get "smart".

    The only stupid question is the one not asked.

    You're at least listening to the advice that was given to you. You're not digging your heels down or trying to argue your way around your mistakes or getting caught up in your own ego; you're actually trying to fix things as soon as you can for Geno and May's best interest.

    Not everyone does that. I'm sure the forum has witnessed some very stubborn individuals who refuse to listen to the more experienced folks when challenged and instead, further justify why their bad decisions are the right choice.

    So it's encouraging and nice to see you being so attentive and ready to make the necessary changes to make things right, unlike others in the past or present.

    Better to ask a stupid question than to assume and do a stupid action. Dont be sorry. Better to ask than guess and have a huge fubar.

    Don't worry, you're doing good! It's always the best to listen to advice and corrections about setup from more experienced keepers. Some people out there ask for advice and then when given advice, backtrack and insist that their setup is fine all along.
