    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

common sense would dictate that a necropsy would be the next logical step to determine cause of death. A sudden death does not automatically implicate the seller (imo).

and trying to argue that would be like arguing what weights more, a pound of feathers, or a pound of rocks....

this is so similar to the wording Jesus used in his vid, except he liked marbles instead of rocks.

oh and just for the heck of it, some studies showing that 86 degree outside temp can easily reach 100+ inside a car

How many dead horses are we gonna beat? It's painfully obvious that this person is either a rojas or a rojas cohort..Dude, once the snake becomes YOURS and dies in YOUR possession it is YOUR responsible to show proof on the cause of the snakes demise PERIOD. If there was such a concern of it's death then why was it disposed of immediately? As an adult, when I accuse someone of some sort of wrong doing, I bring it all and then some to the table..Enough is enough, how much attention do some people need in order to get by everyday?

Of course we are forgetting the 7 bowls of water Jesus gave the snake, which could have been good for it, not one after another in such a short period.

The fact that it drank that much water indicates severe dehydration, but that still doesn't show exactly who's at fault here although an animal that's that severely dehydrated wouldn't last longer than a couple of days, if that.

It dooesn't show who's at fault necessarily but that much water intake in a short period of time could kill the snake.

This quote is taken from a website about dogs, but I would assume the same theory could be applied to animal animal:

"Water toxicity can lead to an electrolyte imbalance and is a potentially FATAL disturbance that occurs in the brain. If water enters the body more quickly than it can be removed, body fluids are diluted and a potentially dangerous shift in electrolyte balance occurs.

This causes the cells to swell as a result of changes in osmotic pressure from within. When this occurs in the cells of the central nervous system and brain, water intoxication is the result."

Please direct me to where Angel stated he clearly knew the danger of the pest strip before receiving the snake.....

Im not telling you NOT to use them... I have used them myself and still do. They are a very fast, easy, and efficient solution to get rid of spidermites. I am asking you to be cautious because it is a dangerous chemical like most chemical pesticides. The only reason I am posting this is because I have been reading how people are using these things lately. (using them in closet grows where people sleep etc.) I actually noticed this a couple years ago, but even more now.
With lack of concrete evidence of what killed the retic, this is all moot, no matter how you choose to interpret it. But here you go. I guess when all else has failed, you're trying to put for a lack of 'common sense' defense for your buddy? Are you trying to say that he'd use a dangerous chemical, while being ignorant of it's inherent dangers? I think you'd have to try pretty hard to NOT take his own words to mean that he noticed a couple of years ago that people were using a dangerous chemical where people sleep.
 
"If you don't have any experience in a given matter I think the appropriate response if any given should be that you are giving your opinion. We all know opinions are like and we have one."

I've used Provent-A-Mite in the past when I had mites in my quarantine. It requires much more work than just putting a toxic strip in with a snake. Maybe your batch of mites have built up immunity to PAM, or you just want the easy way? Either way, to use your quote... Anyone that puts pests strips in a cage or container that can be in direct contact with a snake is just a stinky, hairy "opinion"!
 
Scrammin I see you've listed Angel as a friend. Don't forget that if you lie down with dogs, you'll rise up with fleas......

Me and jesus are two different people i already stated i DO NOT SUPPORT HIS ACTIONS OR CHOICE OF WORDS and i dont mean in just this situation, I dont let anger control my actions, do you see me with infractions or bad threads no.
