Giving Bad/Incorrect Advice

[MarkS]

Don't forget there are also people who have kept snakes for years and STILL don't give good advice. Powerfeeding, breeding girls too young/small ect. Stuff you CAN do but isn't best for the animals. An animals health shouldn't be an opinion... Stuff like that bothers me personally... I HATE people who think it's OK and promote crap like that...

Well, I hate it when people complain about how an animal is kept yet show no proof that what they don't like is actually bad for the snake. People who complain that rack systems are cruel and inhumane because it doesn't give the snake enough space, people who think feeding live is horrible because their snake could get hurt, people who insist that you MUST feed your snake in a seperate feeding cage, people who insist that your females MUST be at least 1500 grams to safely breed. A lot of these people are keepers with 2-3 years experience who have had success and so have developed the rigid mindset that their way is the ONLY correct way of doing a thing because that's what worked for them. Those of us who have been keeping snakes for much longer have learned that there are MULTIPLE paths to the same objective.
