Unfortunately, it is a rare person to not have any critics, especially when in the public eye. I would like to see all of these critics be where he has gotten in 25 years and maintain an absolutely 100% perfect shop. Even he is admittedly learning new things all of the time. As stated above, he is one of the good guys in our hobby!

    Again not disputing if he is a good guy or if he has good intentions. I am a critic about the husbandry of his lizards. His husbandry for lizards is wrong, there really is no dispute there, with him being in the public eye it seems like its the "pet store" syndrom all over again. "Well he's a big name and his videos show him caring for lizards in this way so it must be correct" when in fact it isn't, that is my issue. So in that sense yes I am a critic.
