    I can never make assumptions with what keepers know or don't know about the species they keep. A good exotics keeper should know about their animal's natural diets and behaviors, but I've seen way too many people that don't and make often fatal mistakes because of it.

    That's a shame , I got lucky with my Dwarf Hypo Burm as I traded a beautiful SunGlow Boa ( plus some cash ) for him just after I managed to get the Snow Boa ( after years of waiting ) . I like the idea of keeping many different types and getting the Snow made it easier to part with the SunGlow ... if that makes sense ...

    He's just over 2 years old now and still under 3 foot long !!!

    He's a lovely chilled out , friendly Burm in a tiny little body :)

    I want a granite albino, but I'll settle for a normal at this point lol. Keeping a lot of different species is fun, but I'm entertained enough with just a few that I'd rather have several of the sma e species that I know fits well to my energy level and keeping style. For instance, I'd like to try kings at some point, but I have zero interest in corns. I don't usually care for boas, but rainbows are incredible and I want a BRB.

    I know on my list of absolutely need it are the albino granite burm and a cow retic. Don't know how I'm going to get them, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed there's just some really quiet breeders hanging out somewhere in the state that I haven't found yet.

    My BP doesn't seem to notice or care about anything moving in the world around her unless it is a live rodent lol. I'm sure she does notice it, she just doesn't react very strongly.

    Garters do seem to benefit from being able to 'socialize'. That's not the right word for it of course, it just calms them down because they tend to hang out in groups in the wild, giving them the chance that a predator will single out another one in the group. They are probably the most curious reptiles I've ever had.

    I gotta say, those that *do* attempt to socialize their BPS are just another example of people putting human traits on their snakes.°


    °This does not preclude me from calling my handling times "cuddles" or "snuggles."

    [QUOTE=Deborah;2419621]Can you do it? Yes there is no harm in handled together however there is absolutely no benefit either.
