    Re: Thought This Was Too Cute

    To LonelyGhost -- You'll want to realize that most folks here are very passionate about the well-being of the pets we all keep, and housing ball pythons together is not usually considered a good idea. Therefore, anytime you demonstrate that you do so, you are likely to get many responses trying to explain to you that it's a bad idea. Some will be more diplomatic about it....some...less so. It's not a matter of judging you as a "good" or "bad" keeper, it's just a matter of wanting what is believed to be best for the animals, and doing their best to convince you of that. Some people, though, may be abrasive about it...just a heads up.

    To everyone else -- Once you've said your piece about housing animals separately, then let it drop, please. Every keeper figures out what works best for them and that is what they are going to do. Beating them over the head with arguments doesn't help. (NOT saying any "beating" has begun in this thread yet...but we've all seen it happen before and I'd just like to head that off.) We all choose our own path and do what we feel is best for our animals...and those paths will not all be identical...ever. Give reasons for what you believe...but then it's up to the reader to decide for themselves...not up to us to force it down their throats.
