    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    Doesn't really seem like a bad show.

    Also, I think it's SnakeSkin???

    P.S. After watching part of an episode, they seem to be sticking will really factual information and working to educate people that these animals are not as the media portrays them. This is a show that we need to embrace.
    It's a signal to us too, I know we've seen a lot of bad programs out there, but we can not ALWAYS assume that they will all be that way. It's not fair to do so.

    If you read their adoption page, they prefer to not adopt out animals to breeders or anyone who might resale them or use them for profit.

    Plus, I doubt that ball python morphs need rescuing very often in GA.

    It's pretty rare. On occasion I will see a spider, lesser or a bee on craigslist. And they are hardly ever reposted. There are some normals I have seen on the Atlanta craigslist that will be on there for weeks sometimes (reposts).

    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    I'm going to watch it now...just a note...if you have digital tv with the dvr option, you can set the dvr to record things with certain topics. I have my dvr set to record anything with "snake" in the title I had no idea this show was coming on last night but my dvr recorded it for me, along with "snakes on a plane" lol...I deleted that one

    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    lol sounds like me but lucky only dealt with one or 2 venomous snakes. and they were both during cold weather so no threat ( they were more interesting in holdingon for warmth).. I deal with tons of black snakes and hognose snakes each fall, with the stray garter snake. those are boring calls lol now the fun calls are when I go to pick up an unwanted bp or other exotic snake. I have a bunch of paperwork to fill out now since I must report the snake now. (dang sales permit requirement just to breed bps ) but I rather spend 25 bucks a year and a few hours paperwork ( which is easy if i do it all as I get the snake) or spend 25 buck per snake and no breeding.

    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    Just watched the 2 shows...not bad. I like all the positive comments made about snakes in general. They keep it interesting with a good sense of humor too. Beats the heck out of "Killer pythons gonna eat everyone in Fla" shows!!!!!

    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    Man, their website is annoying; never before have I seen unasked-for popup VIDEOs. That said, it seems like they're trying to do something good, so hopefully everything goes well for them.
    Mountain bikes are for slow people, and reptiles are far better pets than cats & dogs!

    Re: SnakesKin on Animal Planet

    I'm not sure what you thought was terrible about it Aaron?

    I thought it was really well done - with education, rather than fear-mongoring.

    They seem fine to me, seems like they are responsible people.

    Just my opinion,
