Sorry - meant to say "first hoggy", not "first snake". Hope you didn't think I was being patronising, I was just trying to bring things back to a nice place

Of course I didn't think you were being patronising, just certain other people should really learn how not to be patronising

Ask me and I will tell you

I really don't think Kehhlyr was being patronising. He was giving good advice,as it did sound like one minute there weren't feeding well and then the next like they'd taken potentially 5 weeks worth of feeds with no problem.
No one wants to see you struggling with a non feeder,in the interest of you or the snake. If you have total faith in the shop then thats brill,but we only know what we read on here and it does sound a little like you may have been misled.
Anyhow,back on track....congrats,hopefully you'll have your Hoggie with you soon.

He was not only patronising but cheeky and telling my to stop wasting time!

That was my fault, the hatchlings have had 5 feeds and I assumed they were fussy feeders and when I phone at weekend I'll find out if they have taken a 6th feed.

Anyway........thanks I hope so too

Ask me and I will tell you

is why you should find out what is actually happening before assuming and posting guesses.

You lying moo!!
Read your posts, you didn't assume 1 thing!

To quote Under Siege 2 Assumption is the mother of all **** ups.

You SAID that you had spoken the to shop and he has said that they were taking their time feeding, then 3 days later you posted that you apparently spoke to them on the weekend and they had taken 5 consecutive feeds.
That means that on Saturday you had been told they were taking their time, yet on Sunday were told that they had 5 consecutive feeds.
Either the shop/breeder is filling you with crap, or you are full of it.
I know what one I think!

There is no assumption in any of yours posts, you relayed what the shop/breeder had told you.

Isn't this where the 11 year old in me should say "LOL" and "powned"??
Sort it out Ailsa, you could be a nice member of this forum, instead you attempt to talk your way out of things when you are clearly in the wrong.
If you in anyway believe this is a personal attack, then you are wrong as well, I'm simply stating the facts as given by your previous posts and would do the same regardless of if it was anyone else saying the same stuff.

You're not very good at trying to dig yourself out of holes either, so I think we're even now.
In regards the film, I just thought it was the perfect film for you. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0183505/ I believe it's perfect.

locking this thread,

It is a good example though of knowing what you are posting about is accurate and not just off the top of your head.
