Why this forum makes me smile.

[Lexa]

I'm SpoonGirl over at RFUK, a useful an active place, and I only discovered this forum recently - but I'd just like to say a big thank-you to everyone here.

There are some nice people on RFUK, but I see so much spite, nastiness and pointlessly irritating behaviour there that the lack of such stuff on here really makes me smile. You all seem to be friendly, tolerant of newbies, and I can count on one hand the posts which have made me flinch - and even then, the person has been dealt with calmly and the flight has instantly been stopped.

So I'd just like to say how much I appreciate all of this. Thanks to everyone on the Garter Snake Forum who makes this a friendly and un-intimidating place!

You are right. This is a great forum. I've tried others and you'll never find another one with as many friendly, helpful members as this.

Hi Lexa,
You are very welcome. I am pleased to here you like this place so much.
I am Lulu85 on RFUK and all i go one there for is if i am selling or buying, because it is far too quick but also people do not seem as nice as they are on here.
I signed up last year and within minutes i had a pm welcoming me from James (Adamantus) and when i posted my first post everyone was so kind and helpful.
I am pleased and very proud to be part of this forum.

Rofl!! I think it's a cute pic! ;)

[infernalis]

Thanks, have had "spot" for about 2 years, only recently tried to feed him while holding him, Only wish I tried that sooner.

Lately almost all the snakes here eat while being held.

Got adventurous today, and fed Chomper while holding him! He did it!!

Hey kev, He is done working down his food, that was a yawn after eating.

[GartersRock]

I like doing that too!! And one of my female checkereds used to ONLY eat while you where holding her. lol! We just have weird snakes Wayne. ;)

Snakes are SOO cute when they yawn!
