NEW Kahl Albino

I'm concerned. You keep collecting animals.

You were banned from Red Tail Boa . NET,

You have been asking some of the most elementary questions about snake growth, have been concerned about IBD and in general have not looked like somebody that has studied these animals.

I know you are only 16. I like/liked the enthusiasm you show in your video and I think you are trying to do the right thing. However, you are moving WAY too fast.

At 16, you are just at the start of REAL life. Graduation, work, post high school education, friends, girls, parties and setting out on your own will change your life in ways you can't imagine.

Animals are not a fad, or something you have when you're in the mood and then dump when life changes. The commitment is real, and with snakes, it's quite long. Yes, they are an easy pet, but too many can be a bit more trying.

You have a pregnant Dumerils boa and you are buying more snakes? Not wise at this point. How can you begin to enjoy the ones you have now when you are continuing to buy more and will be caring for a bunch of babies soon?

As I said on another board.

SLOW DOWN! Enjoy what you have and don't become a snake farmer/breeder.

I see a theme starting here like I did on the other board.

If you see a similar theme of people (different people) on this board saying the same things as the other board, you should take notice. There are experienced people here!

I like you, but I'm seeing things that raise concern!

Wonderful advice, Gio, now if only it would ever sink in.


Also, is that tape on that cardboard? Really not a good idea. Just google tape stuck to snakes.

No offense to anyone, but he's backpedaling now and any sane person shouldn't let him. The damage is done, and I, for one, will not forget the words typed here and elsewhere.

Also, where'd the leaves go? I can understand the grave thing but what about a paper turkey? A pilgrim hat? The tape is a no no though

I read the threads on RTB.net last night.
They were identical to the ones posted here on BP.net. It was uncanny.

The common trend between the two forums seemed to be Erik saying something and the experienced members saying the opposite. (The experienced members suggesting he: 1) Do research before acquiring more animals 2) Fix his husbandry/mistakes 3) Do more research 4) Slow down + Think 5) Do more research 6) Stop ignoring the experienced keepers - his animals will benefit from the advice 7) Don't breed 8) Do more research. etc etc )
Thus prompting him to ignore much of the given advice and continue on with his own agenda.....

If that many people are saying the same thing and giving the same advice, it's probably a good indicator to listen Erik.



I agree Kodie. I don't think many people will forget this guy. Not to mention all of his threads and posts are public record.

If you can't figure out how to get a sticker off your water bowl then i don't think you'll be able to handle breeding snakes lol.

Can bos just get a permanent ban now? I'd love to not see his threads ever again. He seems like the type of kid that gets mad and microwaves his hamster.

Lol who told you about that??

Haven't broken any rules, but good try. Btw, there's an ignore list feature which will enable you to ignore my posts. There's something called self control for that as well.

This thread is about my Kahl Albino. Don't want to talk about it, don't post here (or at least don't expect a reaction)

You can't control yourself enough not to give us a reaction. Trust me on that one.

Your kahl albino has a nice size, it's too bad you had nothing to with it. Your enclosure looks very amateur, sticker still in the bowl and tape on your boxes for hides. Very poor.

What are you using for heat? How are you controlling that heat?

Got some thermostats yet?
