Will Liasis ever take off?

[DarkComeSoon]

That's the most accurate comment you've made in this thread.

How about answering the question. I picked up some supplies from a place on my way home from work this evening. They have macklotti and savu. They have had fuscus in the past. They currently have apadora papuana.

While liasis are no where near as popular as ball pythons or red tail boas, they do have a following and there are quite a few people who have them. Just because you have not run across them does not mean they are unpopular.

Serious question what country do you live in?

Why would I be joking .

I know you're not joking - I would expect no less of you.

It's okay - a little angry internet name calling isn't going to hurt my feelings. Pardon me however, if I insist on not stooping to your level.

Answer the question - are you assuming that you're lack of exposure to liasis means that they are unpopular?

I wouldn't go as far to say that they are unattainable but you can't go to a reptile expo and find 100 of them.

Ill answer this one for you.


Absofreakinlutely.

These comments are the product of someone that knows very few to no people who are well versed in reptiles as a general rule, and probably never asks a single question outside of how to breed their ball python.

And while i cant say thats necessarily a BAD thing in general *everyone starts somewhere*, the fact of the matter is, this person is insulting in their tone, and posts to someone far more educated than them and speaking in a manner of authority upon information of which they have very. very little clue.

Ignorance these days astounds me. And the petty assumption made here, because they do not see pictures online on Ball Pythons.net featuring these animals, so therefore they must not be popular, just has me mashing the keys in such a way that i have to backspace a whole heck of a lot!

I can't find 100 woma pythons at an expo, or 100 indigos, or 100 ackie monitors, or 100 cribos, or 100 children's pythons or 100 false water cobras at an Expo.

That doesn't mean that those species are not unpopular or don't have a following - right?

At the San Jose Reptile show I can honestly say I saw more savus than I did drymarchon or hydrodynastes or pine snakes.

What do we make of that?

Has Absolutely no bearing on the fact of whether or not they are popular.

It isn't the first time that I've been called as much and it won't be the last.

Apology accepted. Peace.

Ask yourself how many people you know know the difference between a Ball Python, and an Angolan Python.

That's pretty much why they're not popular, not many people know that much about them or know anything at all about them. I personally think Olives are one of the most beautiful snakes on the planet, but I highly doubt I'll ever one one because of their sheer size.
