If you want flys then use a fly attractant. You can find it on the internet in various places. Fly traps use it to get them in the nets. Ww

safo Aug 10, 2003 02:57 AM

ome that is almosta s bad as cutting off worms heads cuz they
ll eat thru the stomchs, how filling are flys? lets see a juvenile will eat what 15 to 20 crickets aday? how many flys would that equal? do you like having flys buzzing around? crickets are liek 10 cents apeice not too mention i think if the cha,s were to climb around the cage they would get sticky, and flys arent to "sterile" of an animal, i mean do u want to feed your cham insects that have been eating dead animal flesh and [bleep]? don't skimp on the proper feeding teqnigues to save a buck, you shouldn't own a pet if you cant take care of it properly,

Marwan Aug 10, 2003 02:39 PM

cause sometimes crickets arent available ,,,,

btw i can afford keeping him im not cheap,,,,

btw 12 crickets here =3.5 dollars

i was just wondering

Mar,

Pay no attention to that post...
There are a few "morons" on this board that should think a little before clicking the post button.

Joe

safo Aug 10, 2003 03:28 PM

Morons?, that's funny, if using common sense and logic are being a moron, then i wont have it any other way.What makes you so high and mighty to throw stones? yur post was of no information reagaurding the orignal post, seems liek you scroll thru posts looking to besmirch peeps and not really be of any assistance. maybe you should find more constructive things to do with yur time. Have GREAT day,

jdany Aug 10, 2003 03:48 PM

Congrats..you figured out I was talking about you!

I am not high or mighty, but thanks for the compliments. I think the original poster appreciated my post more than yours. Only were you not helpful, you were rude as well. I think his question was legitimate. Catching food and saving cost is an art as well as sometimes a necessity. Did you help the cause, or did you criticize the poster? I think it's the latter.
But, when you grow up, you may look back on this as a learning experience. You may just build some people skills through this silly little post. (And your spelling/grammer could use a little work too)

How do you like being belittled and crucified?

Joe

safo Aug 10, 2003 04:52 PM

LOL belittled and crucified?, you really are full of yurself, and obviuosley you cant read, because i was informative on my post, you and yor narrow mind couldn't fathom that,and like i said in my post directly to you, you really should try and get a life and quit trying to be a forum vigalante,i believe it was your slanderous post that was irrelevant to the oringinal post. And by the way i never argue with an idiot cus they only bring you down to their level and beat you with their expierence. Now go preach grammar and manners on another forum.

safo Aug 10, 2003 04:58 PM

go ahead and leave yur lil chicken poop response, to make yurself feel better, after all, you started it, with yur little dive by post, lol, rude?, i didn't resort to name calling ,not unlike yurself. btw, are we being graded on spelling?

dumbkid Aug 10, 2003 05:18 PM

you are a complete idiot. and you seem to have the IQ of a rock.

Dear Idiot...

Im am sorry to say this, but I have to agree both on Jdany and Dumbkid. You are an idiot. By the way, do you visit the Battle.net forums often, it seems that you copied the siganture of a user there. You know, the "Never fight with idiots or you will go down their level and they will beat you with experience"? And yes, you DID resort to name calling, you called the original poster a "tightwad". Im not sure who or what red-neck community made this insult, but I did not understand. And Dumbkid, sorry, but his IQ has to equal to his shoe size. A rock is superior in intelligence and uselfullness than he is. Sorry Safo, you are the forum-idiot from now on. All the people in this thread deserve apologies from you. Good job, Safo!!!

Sincerely,

Anthony

well well well, seems that i have upset the lil cham forum communtiy, so yur saying that my questions werent logical? in reference to calling hima tightwad , i think that was justifiable, i was only think of the welfare of the chams, But tog o as far as to say it was rude, nah alittle harsh, but not rude, the guy who posted it seemed to be ok with it, i dont think he needs you guys to stick up for him, obviuosly this forum has alot of friends, and god forbid you anger one of them, then you will feel the rath of all of them, gimme break, maybe you peeps should worry about your own selves, and not try to be the great chatroom VIGILANTES that you are being, i mean all this BULL[bleep] started, because someone ELSE didnt like what i said in a post, so they take it upon themselves to get the room on their side, funny, I am an avid cham lover like much of you, my response to the post was brash, but not rude, im sorry but theres alot of "DUMB" knowledge that gets passed around, i was tryin to make sure this guys doesnt follow dumb advice that would have killed his cham, so if thats wrong, then i dont ever wanna be right, ENUFF on this, time to move on, hope u do the same

dumbkid Aug 10, 2003 08:37 PM

lets do a little spel check, shall we? i'll put -___- those dashes by every word that you misspelled.

well well well, seems that i have upset the -lil- cham forum -communtiy-, so -yur- saying that my questions werent logical? in reference to calling -hima- tightwad , i think that was justifiable, i was only think of the welfare of the chams, But -tog- -o- as far as to say it was rude, -nah- -alittle- harsh, but not rude, the guy who posted it seemed to be ok with it, i dont think he needs you guys to stick up for him, -obviuosly- this forum has -alot- of friends, and god forbid you anger one of them, then you will feel the -rath- of all of them, -gimme- break, maybe you -peeps- should worry about -your own selves-, and not try to be the great chatroom VIGILANTES that you are being, i mean all this BULL[bleep] started, because someone ELSE didnt like what i said in a post, so they take it upon themselves to get the room on their side, funny, I am an -avid- cham lover like much of you, my response to the post was -brash-, but not rude, im sorry but theres alot of "DUMB" knowledge that gets passed around, i was tryin to make sure -this- guys doesnt follow dumb advice that would have killed his cham, so if thats wrong, then i dont ever -wanna- be right, -ENUFF- on this, time to move on, hope -u- do the same

wheres the good grammer, puncuation, and spelling that a person thats been "ejumacated" and that "grediated?"
