Strasberry Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Several years ago a friend of mine found a fledgling hawk that had fallen out of it's nest. He took it to a bird sanctuary and they were very happy that the bird had been rescued but it was his responsibility. They would come out and monitor the progress of the bird from time to time but it was his responsibility to feed and care for it. He had to pay the whole cost of buying mice for this bird for months until it was ready to be released back into the wild. Then he spent a couple weeks trying to get the bird to fly. Took forever to get out from under this deal just because he tried to do the right thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coop Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Back in my younger "hippy" days, I raised a Boa from 18" to 5'. He started out eating mice (store bought) then had to progress to rats as he got bigger. When the pet shop didn't have rats, I had to buy hamsters. When finally, the hamsters (back then) starting costing more than a six pack, I had to find him another home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to get a saltwater tank going forever, unfortunately saltwater aquariums are another expensive hobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
