hate on social media?

[ericarditti]

idk if anyone else does this, but i regularly put pictures and videos on my facebook,twitter,instagram of my snakes. either eating or just messing around. i get a lot of hate and people saying how gross and nasty them eating is. and how bad they feel for the rats. anyone else do this and get hated on?

I once posted a pic on my FB with the frozen mouse in it's baggy alongside my bowl of cereal with the caption "Breakfast for two!" The worst I got were some jokes about my diet of mice (haha) and an "eww" from my mom who hates snakes.

haha everyone yells at me going "I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE RAT" and i just say if you guys can put burgers on your facebook why cant i put my snakes dinner

I posted about feeders on exotic reptiles of Georgia page on FB and got jumped on by a couple of rat breeder girls for feeding
live. And even gave my crap because I gave some away to some young people who wanted some as pets.

yeah i read your post earlier and its the same as them eating chicken or beef, thats what i tell them but they are grossed out by the rats but hey some people cant handle it

I get a lot of "ewws" and "you let it crawl on you!" when I post pictures of my reptiles, I don't usually put up feeding pictures, just because I know some people are sensitive about it, but nothing I would really call "hate". But I believe it happens.

I found it kinda dumb people posting their food on social media, so I think I would find it just as dumb to post my snakes food.

I get completely different reactions: "Woah if you ever feed it live can I come over and watch" or "aww you don't feed live? If you do can I see?" Things like that. The occasional "ew I hate rats" comes up. Bur it's mosrly can I come ovee and hold the snake ect. And a lot of them dont like snakes

I am surprised at all of the hater posts on the repticon page. All they usually do is post beautiful pics of beautiful animals and at times there are as many like comments as hate comments! Your looking at REPTICON, what did you think you were going to see!

I've never had hate toward my pictures, but I am also fairly selective about who I keep on my friend list. I'm not friends with people who don't respect my hobbies.
