This has been going on for a while but today was the last straw. My python got out of its cage again cause it knows how to unlatch the lock. I've told them I need a better cage but they don't listen to me. My mom accused me of using her whole roll of Gorilla tape that she was wanting to use on taping the cage shut so it couldn't get out when I never used the tape. She found all of it taped to itself in a bundle and accused me of that. I told her that I found the roll of tape in the garage and it look like it was out there for a while. She didn't think I was telling the truth when I was. Then she gets my dad on the phone and taddle-tales to him about it and he gets mad at me. Is there anything I can do to get them to stop accusing me of stupid things? I'm definitely not getting rid of my snake no matter how many times my mom says it.

I currently have a Carpet Python and I want to start keeping Amazon Tree Boas. I'm looking to get a baby since I have an empty 10 gallon tank I can use for it. My dad's only response when I ask him if I can get one is "That I won't be able to take care of both of them". I've taken care of a baby box turtle, a kingsnake, and a lizard at the same time and it was a piece of cake. The turtle and lizard were both WC so I let them go after a while and I sold the Kingsnake to get my Carpet Python.

How can I convince my dad that I can keep both snakes at the same time? I want to get some more experience because in a couple of years, I want to start breeding and selling baby snakes.

Every time me and my girlfriend try to date, her friend ruins it. Her friend tells my girlfriend all this fake stuff that I have no intention of ever saying to my girlfriend. She tells her that I only dated her just to make her happy and that I never loved her. She wrote a fake note (made it look like i wrote it) to my girlfriend saying that I wanted to break up with her when I had no intention of it and I never knew about the note until my girlfriend told me about it.

We both really wanted this to work but her friend keeps doing this. What can I do to stop her friend once and for all? She has ruined my life and I really don't want any part of me either.

I got rid of a Hawthorn tree today and I just noticed all these swelled up scratches on my arms, They do itch and I know there wasn't any poison ivy or poison oak any where near it. Are Hawthorn thorns toxic in any way and is there a way to heal the scratches?

I recently bought a 18x18x24 Exo Terra kit and I was wondering how long I could keep my 4ft jungle carpet python in it. Also, how would I put branches in there for him to climb on since there are 2 double front doors?

I have kept one for a little over a year now to get it healthy and I'm planning on releasing it after this winter. I know its somewhat illegal to keep natives but can I still get in trouble even though I am releasing it?
