    Snake flipping

    What are your thoughts on it? I'm not entirely opposed to the idea, but I know people who are very opposed to it because its "inethical".

    Thoughts? Opinions?

    Re: Snake flipping

    A lot of people make a living/business out of it.

    Bad thing is, a lot of the people who do it are more interested in the money, rather than the animals.

    And the animals suffer because of it.

    Re: Snake flipping

    Haha, good morning Heather =D... though I've been at work for 2 hours now

    If I did decide to flip snakes, I'm sure they wouldn't suffer durring the process, they would be cared for just has I care for the two I have already. I understand peoples frustration with flippers because you're right, 2kdime, alot of time, people who flip animals know that they aren't thier animals, and thus, don't care for them.

    The reason I really inquire about it is because (if you've looked at my other threads) I can get a 08 Woma for ~125, flip him for 300-400, and use the procedes to get a 08 female spider for 200.

    Is just an option for me, and I honestly not sure that I'll do it. I always want other peoples opinions on it, and people here seem to have strong opinions on everything
