    My remark was that this animal that you already thinking about force-feeding, could go well over a year without eating and do just fine (not a couple of months), most people do not think about force feeding a year in advance they think about it when it is time to do so.

    Over the years I have seen many people jumping to force feeding even though it was not necessary which is why I was asking questions (which I believe I am allowed to, am I not) asking question is in no way jumping to conclusion is it attacking someone this however is

    Hopefully this is not a time when you will over react and force-feed an animal that does not need to (just like when you over reacted and decided to sell your entire collection because your spider was missing for a few hours and you all of the sudden lost interest in breeding)

    Now back to your regular programming
