Lol im starting to think so too. No way even a kid could be this dense. He probably is running a Herpstat 4 with all the bells and whistles and just trolling us all lol

It's a girl. And she left the original thread she created because people were yelling at her for not getting a thermostat, having a heat lamp, or proper humidity. She's super dense, super stupid, and super ignorant of the proper snake conditions. Her snake will die, it will be unfortunate, but because she's an ignorant, stubborn, and dense teenager (she's only 15), she will only learn to have a thermostat, a heat lamp, and some sort of humidifier once her snake dies. I bet her snake already is starting to burn and she won't notice until she has a nice roasted snake in her basement where she keeps her snake tank.

People are weirdly, stubbornly defensive of their terrible husbandry practices. I've seen this across the board: people insisting sand is fine for leopard geckos, that it's perfectly okay to give igs extra protein by feeding them pinkies and crickets, keeping turtles in scummy tanks of water and betta fish in bowls, etc. And it's always "Well I've done it for X amount of years and never had a problem!" when in reality their animals don't live for anywhere near as long as they should, and they just shrug, and pass off sudden death as a tragic and surprising thing that just suddenly happened with no way to have predicted. I don't know why it is, but it's so terribly, awfully sad for the animals that they have to suffer slow, unpleasant deaths like that.

This girl is that dense that when her snake dies, she'll probably blame it on a pre-existing condition. The snake should live well into this girl's 50s, but at the rate she's going, it'll be dead within a year. Its too cold and will have the biggest RI known to bp's.

Oh yeah. I'm predicting either burns, or a bad case of RI in the next three months. I wonder if she will even be able to tell when it gets sick until the snake is way too far gone.

Ok,

First off we do not allow personal attacks or name calling - so let's stop those before I have to resort to infractions please.

Secondly, as much as we can see the problems looming, it is her responsibility and her pet. I disagree on her understanding of what she has read but we are here to offer advice and we have done so.

You can lead a horse to water, but sometimes you just end up with a wet horse smell.

Let this one drop and give time for learning to occur.

I still think that if forum admins are telling her to use a thermostat and a heat lamp, that it is probably wise of her to listen. At this point, her negligence is grounds for having some sort of animal control called. This girl lives in Alberta, so I'm not sure what they have for Animal Control in Canada, but I'm guessing that their laws are probably stricter than US laws which may result in a hefty fine if not jail time.

Why? We are no different than anyone else here other than our names are different colors and we have work to do around here.

Dr Del that is the smartest thing I have seen posted on this so for...Personally I think he/she is a troll, and everyone just keeps feeding into his/her story, and they are eating it up. Most likely sitting back in their butt laughing at everyone being in a stew over this..DONT FEED THE TROLL and it will leave

The pictures are pretty convincing on her other threads....however she only posts pictures of the snake and not her setup or anything.

Thank You! I understand different opinions and that you guys are trying to help my snake get the very best, but the way I'm getting treated is so disrespectful! So thank you for your kindness and maturity.
