I made the mistake of going to look, and the girl asked if i wanted to go ahead and take the snake since she had helped me make the kit. I should have waited, yes, and before i actually bring her home again you can bet that it will be right. Which is why i will call the vets in the morning and talk to them. I would never have called you rude or....anything else for that matter. The animals matter most, that is a mindset that is not only rare anymore, but i value it immensely. You guys have been the absolute best since i joined your forum. I really am sorry if you took my reply as anything other than trying to show that i am not impulsive, or unable to care for her. Again, all of your advice is appreciated, and taken to heart. You have way more experience than i do.

I didn't take it that way, no worries at all. I'm just trying to put the animals first. The animals rely on us to keep them alive and healthy, they have no say in the matter. I'm here to learn and to help people who are learning. I am miles from an expert, but I do feel comfortable helping out where I can and sharing what I have learned and experienced.
I don't doubt you'll be a great snake mom, I just want to see the animal taken care of the best way possible. You've had a hard go of things from the get-go. I would definitely think taking some time to hammer out the issues you've had and ensure they don't happen again would be best for you as well as the animal.
