Hey everyone. Just wanted to discuss a topic that is starting to "grind my gears" a little.
As we are all aware, some people choose enclosures and some people choose tubs for their ball pythons. I feel it's a personal choice and as long as you can meet the snakes needs without causing undo stress.
Having said that, there are a few Facebook groups I'm on where tub users (mostly people in their early 20s) are kind of aggressively pushing their own ideas on ball python owners.
I just saw a young lady who set her ball python up in a 20 gallon glass tank. She had hides, clutter, foliage, proper temps, thermostat, thermometers, hydrometers and 3 sides covered.
You would've thought she murdered the pope. This poor girl is basically throwing everything away and moving to a tub because in her words she didn't want to do anything wrong again. I really feel for her. She has one snake. That's a lot of wasted money and lets face it. Some people enjoy creating and aesthetically pleasing environment for their ball pythons. If done properly, your snake can thrive in an enclosure.
I get it. Sometimes you have a shy snake or one thats a picky eater and you have to accommodate accordingly.
What are your thoughts?
