i think even on the net a person should be judged like in real life (as everybody is going to have slightly different views on the same thing). don't mean they are dumb or don't know what they are talking about it means what it means they got a different view point. thats why i think somebody ought to set up a lab style room and try different things in all aspects of keeping what ever kind of herp they got from hatching the eggs to what they do for a full grown adult nearing the end of it's life. and publish the results they had.

i myself would love to see the results of varied temp on hatchings sex ratio's. like whole clutches incubated at a Lil different temp and see if we can have some control over hatching sex ratio's. i know in other herps temp helps determine sex ratio's
About post count, sure they could have a decent ammount of knowledge but id rather go with someone who I KNOW, knows what theyre talking about. A lot of people join this site because they are absolutely clueless, and sometimes they still try to offer "information" which turns out to be mis-information.

that would be an experiment/research... You know for a ball python that would take over 20 years. And you cant just do it with a few snakes you would need a huge sample size, and probably of every morph if you want to be thorough. And thats just NOT going to happen...

idk about every one else on here, but why would think that everyone should be judged? Usually thats a bad thing and include ASSUMING things.

Someone should draw their own opinion about another person if thats what you mean. That takes time, and besides that, people can be completely different on the internet than they are in real life so that doesnt really help.
