Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I love to see people's collections, setups, and even video's of it as well it helps other's to grow in the hobby as well as give birth to new and innovative ideas.

Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I really enjoy seeing pic threads, but actually being invited into someones home and seeing their collections in person is always a great pleasure. You guys know who you are :D:D
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
Definitely like seeing everyones collections. Everything from normals to new morphs are cool to look at...
I wish I had more time to post here, both in response to others pictures and to take and post more pics of my collection! And I think people should "show off" their animals more often so I can see all the morphs I can't afford!
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I love seeing everyone's collections!!! How else are you going to learn about all the morphs and what the goods and the bads of each morph look like. Of course there are other ways, but the plethera of BPs on this site is awesome!
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I voted kinda because there are a few different angles to look at it from.
Personally I think it's great to see some pictures of a little bit of this and a little bit of that. To mention a few examples: newly hatched baby/s, latest member/s of the 'tribe' or ones first reptile. They do it out of sheer excitement and sincere happiness which is great! :)
It's also great to see some individuals hit the odds and perhaps hatch out a rare combo - sweet! :D
But there are also some individuals who posts several photos with the sole purpose of bragging (the bad way of bragging) and that isn't nice. I haven't seen any of these individuals here but there's a quite a few in the European forums.
And the way some of them do it is so tasteless. :colbert:
Some tend to critisize other lines of ball pythons to point out that their animal is the most 'superior' of all. One person even had a nice looking black pastel (no specific line I pressume) that was ready to breed this season but he 'threw' it away because some breeder in another country hatched out some black pastels whose father originated from Gulf Coast Reptiles (I don't have any grudge against you guys at GCR :) ). They're not Gucci handbags... At least in my world.
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I love animals, and I love seeing the ones that people have, be it snakes, dogs, or any others. They don't have to be "anything special" I enjoy seeing them all, normals, morphs, oddities, babies the works. What I REALLY love seeing though, is what people have produced (animal wise) or built for themselves, such as racks, incubators, and things to heat up the meals. It's all fun to get to see.
If you get kind of snooty and bored with seeing normals, I think you have lost vision of why you got into this hobby. Just my 2c.
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
i also like seeing ppls racks they built. sure ive built a few for both snakes and rodents, but im always looking at new designs and ideas.
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I love seeing everyones pets!!! But I must say....it just makes me add more to the list of wants....lol
Re: Do you enjoy seeing people's collections?
I like seeing the pics of snakes doing things, exploring outside, crawling on the couch, hiding in a boot and stuff like that. I also like those pics of a clutch of eggs that have little BP heads poking out...
