Re: The definition of new =)
Well here we have a case of petstore information that's wrong. The petstore only sold the small mice prekilled and said that they were feeding the snakes the fuzzy sized mice. They also specifically directed me (more like physically threw in my cart) the heat lamp and two bulbs One of the bulbs blew the minute I put it in the lamp anyway, and the lamp is a gigantic pain in the rear, when you try to unscrew the bulb, what happens is the actual socket starts to unscrew from the ceramic casing first and THEN the bulb comes out, plus there's no one off switch, it's unplug and plug back in.... I think I was going to go to the petstore myself ANYWAY, that's a little ridiculous and I don't want to fool with that much trouble for a heat lamp =/. ANYWAY, yes, she is preshed, she's got one eyecap and the other one is off and her belly is pink. Thanks for everyone's help. I probably might have traded it in yesterday had this girl I asked online who "owns 7 bps and is writing her own care guide" not told me that "besides the aspen bedding, you're going real well" when I listed all my supplies. *sigh* I tried to do research, I really did. : I shall go out ASAP and get the other things, I DO have the receipt, when you're my parents and you buy something more than say 30 dollars, you KEEP THE RECEIPT, lol... I love my super frugal parents, they try so hard to be cheap, but I tried not to let them this time, I tried to get things that I knew or had read were good for snakes.
Also, I think It would be prudent for me to order my mice online, the next nearest petstore that has frozen mice is nearly 60 miles away and I don't even know what variety THEY have either, I do know that where I got my snake, it was only the 2-packs fuzzypinky packs.... And considering gas prices these days and petstore inflation, It may (probably) be cheaper.
