But I'd rather get my knowledge from the sweat and hard work of people that have BIG money tied up into their business. Because I know they will do what's best for their business and that means their snakes too.

An interesting theory.

It's a lot cheaper to house 3000 snakes on paper than it is on pine.

Cheaper doesn't mean better, it just means not as expensive.
