Sorry, I'm a pit bull lover and don't like the stereotypes thing.......
I noticed that and meant to correct myself. I realize it's not pit bulls per se, i just glanced over "pit" and began my response. You're right ;)
Re: Am I cruel for doing this???
To do it once for education - ok
To do it for entertainment -- stupid
To do it to help illicit breeding -- eeeh
Re: Am I cruel for doing this???
Well, some will think I am wrong, some won't. I put a male pastel with a light colored normal around 4:15pm....no lock as of 7:45pm. Of course, you can't rush breeding and it takes time to get successful locks etc.. Anyway, I just wanted to test the method I have been using...
I put the male with a huge normal male...he lost. I put him with the same light colored normal girl who I know is itching for a man to come her way...and it's 8:19pm right now....they have been locked since 7:58pm. I guess there is a method to the madness.
I'm going to keep track and see what happens with putting 2 males together and not putting them together before pairing them up. I get locks both ways...but when the males wrestle...it happens fairly quick...but I'm not rushing anything...just my method. ;)

My dog likes the vacuum and I don't like cats....
I think it would be hilariousness to chase the cat with the vacuum but I would not do it because it is cruel to the animal.
Re: Am I cruel for doing this???
No I don't think you are cruel for it as long as it was supervised. From what you say you did it responsibly.

Well, illicit breeding sounds kind of dicey. But to elicit breeding it works pretty well........

Woops, I have chased the dogs around. :rolleyes:
Re: Am I cruel for doing this???
That was actually kinda cool... I wouldn't do it just to see it but that video was very interesting. I really dislike how people tend to look at these snakes as delicate silk. Ball pythons are very hardy animals and I see no reason why this wouldn't be considered acceptable as long as it's done responsibly and not for entertainment.
Re: Am I cruel for doing this???
I see nothing wrong with it. I've tested it out before to see "what would happen" just like you did. I've also used it to throwing my male breeders in the past into breeding mode. Did it work? Yup. I've also know a lot of breeders who also put males together to start up breeding. I see nothing wrong with it and to put it out there with pit bull fighting is just ridiculous. If you want to see pit bull fighting then I'll invite ya over to my neighborhood where it's a major problem around here and you can then see first hand how ball python battling and pit bull fighting are worlds away in difference.
