Stop it Troy, I can't assume anything, I do not know you at all. I can only go by what you posted, period.



From what you posted, you gave poor advice. THat is all I can go by.



THere are cures to all the things you mentioned or methods to work around them. That is what you should have posted.



Troy, stop with what I think of you or you I. I don't care, and nobody else does either. Its not about you, or I, its about what WE SAY.



I have no idea why you take everything personal. When I look at animals, I do not look at the keepers. Thats including my animals. They are the subject. We are all equal as we are the keepers and we don't matter.



You make it about manners or this or that. How about making it about the animals. How about looking at it from that point of view.



Its not about you in any personal way. How could it be, I do not know you, nor do most here. I can only go by what you say, and with mice. Your advice was not so good and based on your failures or problems.



She can keep small groups is she pleases, there are no problems with that. Keep it simple and do a good job.



The key to producing mice is FIRST get good stock. Then its easy. The second key, is Water, its a must and must be reliable, as in you cannot miss days.



Then comes food, food at all times.



The main suspect with mice eating their babies is LACK of water, even for a few hours.



I do understand where you come from Troy, your all about people, the problem is, this is a hognose snake forum. And in this case, the food they eat.



I am nice to the OP and theres reason, she is nice to me. Whether she does what I recomend or not, is not a problem. She asked, I tried to help and she did not FIGHT. You and some here, fight and do not listen. Really, all you have to do is ignore what you do not like about my posts. Its about that simple.



But you don't, you make it about you. By the way, do I know you???? No I don't
