I mean, I totally get why they would feed F/T. Less danger to the snakes(not that rat pups could do anything, but as a principle) I did find and go over their feeding chart as soon as I got the oppertunity. They really did attempt to feed, the were just unsuccessful something like eight times in a row at one week intervals. I couldnt find anything before that point, but I know they had him longer than that and there was not a single successful feeding.

I guess the way I see it, if im there long enough I can work my way into a position that I can make the necessary changes. Until then I just have to do what I can whether its the right thing to do or not. In order to change the system you have to work within the systems rules.

I do have a bandfield in my store actually! I didnt think to take him there because he isnt really sick. Just extremely malnourished. I can agree with the 50/50 awesome idiot statement. Just from what Ive seen so far, But my manager ssos far seem like they legitimitely care. I imagine its hard to get the numbers and animal health 100% right with so many priorities to juggle and without a reptile specialist who works there to pass on knowledge and tips. The fact that Im good with snakes was one of my biggest reasons for being hired.

And youre right. If I buy every sad or unhealthy animal I see because I think I could give it a good life id very quickly turn into a horder XDD
