Re: Moral Support
first, everyone come in for a group hug.
secondly, sometimes u just can't appease some people. once u put them all in a 40g breeder, they will complain about something else like why keep a predatory animal at all? as long as u are responsible, knowledgeable and take good care of your animals, do u boo!

u should post and share cool/interesting articles like that.

I do not enngage in that type of conversation it's a waste of time and energy and I have better things to do.
People like that are not receptive to anything but their way.
is anyone else picturing someone coming at Deborah IRL? i'd pay good money to see her reaction to anyone questioning her care. 🤣🤣🤣

Re: Moral Support
It's true that there is not point on arguing with your friend any further...there are so many points you could make and essentially it is both your rights to have free thoughts and your own opinions. You've got to do what feels right and if you get great enjoyment and pleasure in keeping snakes then it's no ones business but your own on how they are being kept. I have an indoor cat - someone could argue that's it's wrong to keep them indoors (foolishly since there are so many dangers encountered outside) it comes down to difference in preference which people mistake as right or wrong, it's up to the individual. Pet keeping in general is a choice and if your animals are healthy and cared for then don't let someone else's opinion change your own keep living your dream <3

like...please, go ahead and show me what a happy snake looks like. you've probably never even seen a snake up close, and you're going to explain a happy snake to me. O~K~.
but instead, i just state that they are eating, pooping, growing and docile snakes. and i love them very much.
I like that you keep pics of them on your wall at work. I have mine as backgrounds on my phone, etc. I also teach and get a lot of questions from kids when they find out I own reptiles. Some of the "eewwwe snakes" kids end up asking me questions and seeming more open-minded when I talk about how docile, beautiful, and interesting they are. I keep a class pet gecko, which helps expose them to reptiles, so I think that helps them be more open to the idea of owning snakes also.

I'd pay decent money to watch Deborah whoop somebody's rear end, would be better than UFC!!!
