My local reptile shop has pet coral snakes (the employees and owner's pets) and they feed them baby corn snakes that won't accept food. It's not for fun, no one is ever watching them eat it. But this guy is spending extra money for his.




    Shock value is the only thing that makes sense but it doesn't seem like that's what he's going for.

    I think you're right about shock value, and perhaps its a little bragging about being in a financial position to feed expensive animals. For some the attitude is "what good is having money if you can't flaunt it?" Regardless, it is their prerogative however misguided we may believe it to be, and the fact we are posting about it just gives it weight. Ever hear the saying, "There's no such thing as good or bad publicity, it's just publicity"?
