So we don't make "a ton of money". Yet I have enough to make sure I can care for what is depending on me to care for them. Yes Imay lleave the bedding in a little longer or I don't have all the fancy equipment that others do. I am saving up for a nice thermostat, and some other things. My snakes are well fed, and I care for them. I do make sure their enclosures are clean and they have fresh water, and are healthy. So back to the OPs question.
    Yes you can fix the bowl with aquarium silicone, or the gell super glue. Just make sure what ever you use dries completely before putting it back in to the enclosure. I wish you great luck with your pet.
    Whoa!! Take it easy there, killer...

    The griping has been over for a while now. The instigator has been banned, and we're all having a chuckle at his expense. We're all good.

    To address YOUR financial situation, I don't think it matters to the vast majority of us how much or how little you spend, provided your animals are taken care of to the best of your ability. I hope I speak for all of us when I say you shouldn't feel obligated to explain or justify your financial situation to any of us. Ever. None of us should.

    Btw, you mentioned that your husband works for the fire department. Please thank him for me. That can be a challenging job, and they can't be thanked enough for all they do for us.

    Re: Broken water dish.

    Oh I read through the whole thing before I replied to this. The person you are referring to called me an idiot a few times even though I have owned and cared for my girl a lot longer than he's been out of diapers. Yes I'm feeling old and the mommy is coming out. I've also gotten on to that person for being a jerk. If we want to discuss this person then lets start a new post. I was also trying to see if there were other suggestions besides gel super glue and aquarium silicone which are safe for all animal use after they've cured. But anyway the person that was being discussed is gone and now we can get back to teaching each other new stuff and having fun. Sorry I'm either just too tired, pregnant, or just plain ole old for dealing with idiots that think they are the next Messiah. Remember he read some stuff and took it as the law of how things should be done. He probably got his info from a petsmart or petco employee. Now you see how high my opinion is. I go to people that have owned the animal I am looking at not some idiot that can't tell an BP from a Leapord Gecko. Yes that's an exaduration but you know what I mean. The person that is now gone tried to tell me I'm an idiot because my husband put my male with my female because his humidity was low and I was sick. He was very thorough in telling me to get rid of my BPs because of this and because I had friends taking care of my female for a while because I couldn't have her with me. He also gave VERY bad advice to brand new BP owners because they didn't do what he wanted.

    okay, that's enough. Has anyone heard the adage 'let sleeping dogs lie?' It's a good adage... I like it.. Look it up if you don't know it...

    The issues have been taken care of, I'd really hate to lock this thread.

    Move along, nothing to see here...

    Re: Broken water dish.

    Sorry just tried to edit and it didn't let me. Disregard part of that post. It's been a very long day with little sleep. Patientz3ro, thank you for appreciating all the firefighters, police, and military. I'm a disabled vet and know personally how hard they work. I wasn't trying to say that I can do things better on a smaller amount just saying that even though someone doesn't have as much they can still take good care of these beautiful creatures. I do have a jury rigged thermostat right now lol. Its working and thats what matters. I did see a couple pics of the banneds set up and I have to say his is worse than mine was when I very first started out keeping my girl lol. He didn't change anything in his even after all the questions to people on here and still had the nerve to say he was the best. Now he will go onto a different forum and say we never gave him a chance and we're all idiots.

    And after a few posts the people on that forum will come to the same realization we did... He's not subtle...
