    Then I guess everyone is warned. You did what you felt you needed to do. Sorry things happened as they did. I can say I never had an issue like this. now people are warned to beware of me. If that makes you feel better in your heart then it is what it is.

    You also left out you did get a partial payment, small, but at least an effort in light of the issues in my life. And warning people? Seriously when I had not been on here for 8 months? And the smiley face after saying " I told you I was going to" shows to me it was personal and in retaliation...

    It was a seller beware not a buyer beware. Until a couple of people emailed me I had not been on this forum in almost 8 months or so. Special thanks to all who asked me in private or who took the time to hear my side of the story in private. It is what it is, she was not incorrect yet she left...

    Well then if that is the case so be it. The fact that I had never prior had any complaints. If one complaint is enough to never deal with me 'ever again' then I guess I'll have to live with it. Tom due to you and I Pm'ing in the past I did PM you. You had always been kind to me, answering...

    All I am going to say is there is more to that post than was said. I don't feel the need to defend myself, I have told some of the admins/mods. I don't feel I need to or have to explain myself to a few thousand people I don't even know. And since none of you are involved I don't feel it...

    Sulcata with URI

    Thank you, I'm so glad also. He had me very very worried. I could not imagine losing him or any of my tortoises. After the third visit he finally poops and ate like a champ and continues to do wonderfully.

    RE: Posts and using decernment True but if one doesn't have all the facts telling it like it is kind of isn't productive. I have seen some forums get so nasty and break down and get split up, I don't consider this forum a quite a bit of 'babying' I see it as we are all expected to act...

    Sulcata with URI

    No xrays were done and yes we are very lucky to have a good repore with our vet. He tells us that all these pets aren't ours they are his and we just get to feed and clean up after them. He is very caring and compassionate and takes payments when needed to. If I were to ever win the lotto one...

    traveling and need some ideas

    Are they little babies? Wishing you a safe trip. 90 ey? Uggg I melt at 78 degrees and higher. lol If you're going to have the AC on try a heating pad under their carrier but only like 1/3 under it and the other 2/3's with no heating pad so they can chose how warm they want to be.

    Sulcata with URI

    Vets in my area are quite expensive. Even what side of the state one lives on is a huge difference in prices. But the 1200 was for 5 or 6 visits. Every other day for two weeks.

    traveling and need some ideas

    It's still chilly in some areas early am's have you thought about something like a heating pad that can be plugged into the car? Depending on what you plan them to travel in this looks like something that could work, just make sure they have an area to be away from it in case it gtes to warm and...

    Sulcata with URI

    We had a Sulcata come down with a URI, thank goodness he was the only one, geeesh how expensive vets can be. This was my first time dealing with a URI and I wanted to post my experience and see what others have done to deal with URI's. Our vet is tortoise experienced but not a reptile vet...

    Just something on my heart to post. When we read posts from other people sometimes we need to use decrement and also realize we may not be hearing the 'whole' story. There are always two sides to every story and one should not judge unless they know all the facts. Sometimes when people are upset...

    Grape leaves and Sulcata's

    Found a person down the road with a ton of grape vines and they don't spray, was told I can take all I want. Should grape leaves be limited? Or can they have as much as they want within reason?
