    more then you can handle...

    sorry just gotta get this off my chest do you think that some of these guys just have to much to handle for example if you can't keep up with feeding records for all your snake you have to many, if you don't have birthing records, if you don't see different things wrong until your customer calls you you have to many...sorry but do you agree

    Re: more then you can handle...

    If you're breeding, and don't have the time to keep up with birthing, feeding, and weight records, you need to cut back on your breeding ESPECIALLY if you plan on selling offspring(as all breeders I know of do), you owe it to the snakes and your customers.

    You can't always see problems with snakes, and if you sell one to a customer that ends up being a problem snake, it may or may not be a clue that you have too many snakes/not enough time.

    If you don't have enough time to keep up with taking care of your snakes, you're probably the first person to know it, most likely it's pretty obvious if you have too much on your plate. It just takes a responsible person to act on it.

    Kind of on that subject, we just bought a new Cinnamon ball on the weekend and were recommended this program from the breeder. http://www.eyehit.com/degei/ it is really a neat program. You can keep track of all your snakes/birth/feed/shed cycles on it.

    Thats the ones to AVOID then .In my opinion if you can not have a simple document to verify the snake is a REAL het then i will not be surprised to read a bad guy thread on fauna about that person down the line.
