Re: Fox News 9:45 Friday Morning
Thanks for all the advice. I was planning to take a normal and an Albino.
Panthercz. I was worried about them cutting my words. But it will be Live.

Re: Fox News 9:45 Friday Morning
Also touch on the fact that reptiles are hypoalergenic for children or adults that may want a pet but have pet allergies.
And what ever you do don't point out what might make reptiles a better pet alternative to cats or dogs but rather just an equal and just as viable a pet option as cat or dogs.
Suggest loads of research before getting a pet reptile. And even offer your phone number or email for people that may have questions.
You want to show Reptiles and snakes in particular as being not only a livelihood but also a desired pet in todays society.

I hate Fox news with a red passion, but if they do this and do it right, I may hate them with only a... pink passion! lol
This is a WONDERFUL opportunity!

Re: Fox News 9:45 Friday Morning
I second the notion of dressing professionally - business casual at a minimum. It doesn't help our cause when every "reptile person" goes on national TV looking like Crocodile Dundee in everyday life. Shave, wear some dockers, a polo, and a nice watch, etc...
And being live at 9:45am on FOX news...your audience will be old men and soccer moms. Choose your words carefully. Or wear a "Palin 2012" shirt. Kidding.

Re: Fox News 9:45 Friday Morning
Don't be what you're not. If you don't own a polo shirt, don't wear one. Be comfortable with what you're doing and remember, no one knows what you do or don't know. Don't be afraid to say you don't know an answer but that you'll find out or to give an answer you are sure of.
DO NOT give out your phone number or email unless you want whackos contacting you. Make up an email that is only for that show if you want but don't use one you like.
Don't talk about live feeding, even if you do it. Talk about how you have frozen rodents, don't say mice or rats, in your freezer that you thaw as necessary.
Drop the bp.net name or any other site you think would serve as a good resource for the general public.
Good luck, and be sure they give you a tape of the interview.

You must remember this is not a political interview, but seeking info. They aren't interviewing a senator but someone with a hobby. They aren't going to do an attack job. It would be bad P.R.

I'm with you on Fox. I wouldn't trust them at all. Don't answer any leading questions. Like, has anyone you know ever been injured by a python, or, have you ever been bitten, or, could an adult python kill a baby human?
If you hear questions like this you will know right away that you have been set-up.
