    There's nothing wrong with solitary confinement in prisons, either. We've been doing it for years...

    If your snakes are doing so well in them, leave them open - just a crack - and then leave the room for an hour.

    I can leave the door open on my ackies' enclosure all day long and they won't leave it. I know they are not snakes, but that is my definition of "doing great"...

    Actually I took them to a pet psychic and they told her they love it in there. I assure you my snakes are more than happy and healthy. Retics are active and like to explore. Whats the point of leavig a cage open to see if they come out? If they didnt come out then I might be worried. Great points though man!

    Ideally they would have a larger inclosure, Real world they don't..The addictions/animals people put into a bedroom doesn't allow for it..
    I feel Chris has a passion for what is ideal and what we'd all LOVE to provide..
    HOWEVER theres just so much you can fit in a bedroom..SO we do the best with what we have and its suitable..BUT if ya had the space,the $$ you'd likely fix up some wicked cool habitats..TRUTH is only the rich and institutions can do that..

    So, why the tubs? Are you able to get all of your snakes out regularly so they can be active and explore?

    Fiend - sorry, I only have 19 yrs. of experience with retics. You're probably not even that old yet...

    The funny thing is, look at all the morons who keep snakes for years and years, without proper care. I think its funny that the only thing you can ever bring up is my "inexperience" because of my age.
    I could argue the fact that i knew people when i was 3 years old that had retics, and they had them for years and years, and THE CARE IS STILL NOT PROPER.

    Again Chris, older doesn't mean your better, or smarter.
    Maybe that's something you don't have experience in...
    Realizing that someone younger, can know more than you.

    I can tell you still have years of learning to do, as well as growing up.

    Yeah, nothing is happier than a 20 foot retic in a tub that is 6x3x1...

    I didn't post on this thread to start an argument. Nothing I say will convince the "tubbies" that they are doing it all wrong, and nothing the "tubbies" can say will make me switch to tubs.

    And of course Fiend knows more than me. I've been doing it all wrong all this time... Chime back in when you have an animal that is 20 years old that you've had since a hatchling (like my iggy...)
