i totally have no problem with the tubs people keep there pythons in i will prolly go to them when i have so many tanks i have to (i build my own for a fraction of the ones you buy at pet shops) i also could sell them for good money later to invest in more morphs
i also believe that if the conditions out are right and your not at the dang amusement park its fine to have them outside if your responsible enough to keep it safe... i had my first one out plenty of times in the 7 years i had him
for just my peace of mind i like to keep mine in large tanks short but kinda long so the snake can stretch out(hell i stretch alot after sitting on here for hours reading about morphs so why shouldnt my baby be able to also : ) also i like to be able to view the python without disturbing it as much ( unfortunately my male died at the age of about 14 he waas prior owned and twards his later years of me having him had been bitten badly by a fiesty rat (grabbed way to far back)which i later brutally murdered.... he refused to eat i did what i could but he eventually lost the fight)
now that i have written a book on here im gonna go stare at my new pair of 100% het albino balls for a few

all in all though people who own pets do need to learn as much as possible about there needs
