I would never presume to tell anyone what to do in this debate as it is very much to each his own, but I personally would never purchase a wild caught snake. I personally do not like the idea of taking a snake from its wild home and would never do it. Of course, that is just me, it in no way makes it wrong if you do.
Yes, I know all of our captive bred snakes are here because of importation, yes, importation is how we discover new morphs. I just would never want a wild caught or CH snake for my collection, I prefer my pets to be bred as pets and their wild cousins to stay wild.
Once again, that is just my choice. For those of you with wild caught snakes or who want wild caught snakes, I pass no judgement, you have every right to them provided you give them the best care possible.And Rat160, those are some beauties you have there!!
