    Putting the corn "to sleep"

    So... we've decided to put the corn to sleep via the freezer. Uhmm... this is horrible. How do we do it? Thats a stupid question... I dunno. Weird. I feel sick. Why didn't Petco tell us this was one of the two corns that had refused food since being hatched... really pisses me off. And their policy... 2 weeks!? When a corn can suffer well over 6 months with no food. Absolutely ridiculous!

    did you talk to the people at petco before the 15 days was up if so go back and talk to the manager and tell him that you were having trouble getting him to eat and that you had talked to the employees of the store about it.

    Yes we did, but she didn't seem to care too much. "Our contract was clear." Anyway. Its done. I'm going to go bury it in the back.

    You froze the snake because you couldn't get it to eat? Did I miss something?
