    Re: i have to watch my snakes starve as punishment

    If you are really in dire straights, you could call the humane society or the ASPCA - or a rescue group to see if they will come pick up one of your snakes.

    You could talk with your teachers - maybe your science teacher to see if they could help you re-home it.

    You could put ads up around your school. Talk with your principal. Call the people at the pet store and see if anyone drives past your school- maybe they could drop off mice at the office (stranger things have been delivered!)

    Maybe you have a friend or a teacher who lives near the pet shop who could stop by and pick up some food and bring it into school the next day.

    Possibly you have a preacher or priest to talk with? Maybe that person could talk with your parents if yall go to church.

    Just some ideas.

If you were truly only looking for advice your post would have looked a lot different and replied to as such.
    I was simply asking how I could work things out. I wanted ADULT advice to my CHILDISH problem. I know very knowledgable people are on this forum so I was seeking advice, however I should have waited until things cooled off. I can't see why I would get any sort of sympathy. I know what took place was wrong. Yes I am a kid, yes I had just been in a argument, yes I went behind their backs. Your point is? I worded it as best as I could. And yes I wanted the attention so I could get more advice (that may come across weird).

    Everything is fine now! Snakes are all fed and parents are fine with me going to the store to get food to feed them. Thanks for the awesome advice though

    Re: i have to watch my snakes starve as punishment

    Good to hear. Tough lessons to learn. I snuck mice into my house when I was a kid... not knowing that one was a male (no way to physically tell; the mouse was deformed). Man, did I get in trouble when they started to reproduce and I had over 50 mice before I knew it...

    Completely understand.
