Moving Reptiles

It was weird.
When I checked to see what we were expecting in on our reptile shipment....
To see two animals I knew we weren't carrying anymore on it.

As we'd reset the habitat plan, to make way for new reptiles and get rid of old ones.
-As we tend to do that in the spring and the fall to make way for the seasonal reptiles.

And like a month or two ago, we'd reset the reptile habitats.
Preparing to get in a ton of snakes this time around. O.o Like half of our cages were now becoming snake cages.
Which is weird....
And then they sat empty for a month...
No snakes week after week after week.

Then, we finally got in most of our snakes!
Only for the next shipment to bring in some of our old reptiles that we weren't carrying any more. O.o
Maybe it was a fluke?

The next shipment showed no old reptiles.
So I thought it was a fluke.

....Until those same old reptiles showed back up.

Getting suspicious, I decided to go online again, and check the schematics to see if there had been any changes.

O.o
To my surprise.
There had been.
They'd reset the habitats again!
Bringing back a couple of the reptiles we thought we weren't carrying any more.
And getting rid of some of the new ones we were supposed to get in....
And also getting rid of other snakes we'd been carrying for a while now.
While spreading out animals into individual cages that had all been placed into one before.

Totally crazy.
And....totally not good. :S

Because I currently have four snakes I'm no longer 'carrying'
Which means they're taking up spots where the other reptiles are supposed to go. :S
Which means I have to play a bit of ring around the rosie.
Putting compatible reptiles together, so that I can make room for the reptiles that can't be placed with other reptiles.
.....
And it only works if we don't get in the reptiles we're supposed to be getting in.

Which worked...for like 24 hours, before we had a surprise shipment show up. *sighs*
So....
Somehow we're making it work....
I really need to sell those snakes though. It would make things much easier...
Unfortunately the snakes that we're no longer going to carry after we sell the ones we have....have been sitting in our store for months already.
So I'm not expecting our reptile habitat problem to resolve itself anytime soon. *shakes head*
