[QUOTE=O'Mathghamhna;2441618]There are a few things seriously wrong with this post, but I'll bite anyway:

First of all, all we know is your side of the story. It could be your parents said you aren't allowed to go back to the pet store because you irresponsibly snuck another mouth to feed into the house, despite not having the means to feed that mouth. Your parents may think snakes can eat rabbit food, who knows. I seriously doubt if they are ok with 3 snakes in the house, a 4th would make them want to just starve the whole lot to punish *you*. Doesn't add up.

Second, if you think your parents are pissed for sneaking another snake home, imagine how pissed they will be to find rodents (plural!) in their home? Have you ever even bred rodents before? Probably not, so again, you would be taking on much more responsibility than you are capable of handling, and at the expense of losing what trust you have left with your parents.

Third, you need to realize that the problem in this situation is not your parents. It's you. Your parents were fine with their kid keeping three snakes in their home, which is more than I can say for many grown adult roommates. Judging by your post, you don't drive which means you're either too young or too broke (or maybe disabled?), in which case you owe the care of your pets to your parents, who give you the funding for their food. The deal was that you uphold a simple rule: no more pets (and for a teenager, 3 snakes is PLENTY, so that's not outrageous). You broke that rule, so now you must suffer the consequences. Don't be dramatic and make it seem like your parents are snatching knots in the snakes' necks. If you need to get off your hiney and go buy food for the animals you took into your possession, get walking.

Fourth, for the love of God, you've already posted your full name here (if that's even your name. I'm really hoping you're just a troll), please don't open yourself up to criminal activity by also publishing your city and state. I would maybe take PM inquiries if folks in your area can help you out, but if my kid went to a forum to try to accuse me of animal neglect because he broke one of my rules, and then published his full name and city and state, you would have a lot more than snakes to worry about.

Ahem. Just sayin'. Good luck, and please don't continue to subject any more innocent animals to this situation.[/QUOTE/]

well ill I am very appreciative of your somehwere kind words my anaimals are fine. I have resolved the problem and just fed my animals today! My animals have never gone more than a week without being offered food, I can't say they always take it but I was NOT accusing my parents of neglect. I am completely capable of taking care of my animals and am fully aware of the danger of what I have done. I am extremely sorry for the miscommunication, the original post was meant to come across as asking for a estimate of how long I have until I need to feed them again.
