It's not about being superior at all tbh. It's probably a culture thing ... Over here in the UK it's just not accepted by I think around 500,000 snake keepers .... I appreciate that over in the states it's regarded as common place but that doesn't make it right or indeed acceptable ..

It's perfectly right and it's perfectly acceptable.
It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.
It is okay to feed live food to snakes.
