BallpythonZone.com Split - Wild caught BP

[littleindiangirl]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. My opinion is that wild caught should stay in the wild. We have enough ball pythons in the United States as it is. Tons of breeders are pretty much giving away their cb normal animals because there are a half-a-million ball pythons being imported into the United States every year. I will not support this or anyone else who does.

Are you serious?? Do you REALLY expect EVERYONE with wild caught BP's to ditch them all to be taken seriously? This is news to me! Apparently everyone I bought from isn't a "serious" breeder because they have some WC's in their collection.

It is a living breathing animal that he cares for, you're really blowing smoke if you think that he HAS to get rid of his snake because it came from the wild.

One WC isnt going to set the tone of his reptuation in this hobby.

It would be like, "You have to get rid of all of your pet store bought animals, because they are captive hatched, to be taken seriously."

It's a fact of life, and purposely alienating a newbie because he bought a WC is a damn shame in my book. Good job Eddie for making him feel like crap.
