Actually other than a couple of posts this thread, from what I can see, has been very calm and full of very good, common sense husbandry advise. Not much "ripped to shreds" to see here folks in my opinion.
Having said that, I'll caution those of you that wish to go there that it won't be tolerated. This is a young person, obviously struggling to manage a snake he may not have prepared for very well. If we help him...we help the snake. Please keep that in mind and if helping this new member causes you frustration, there are many other threads here that you might enjoy more.![]()
