Keeping snakes together is a cheap crappy way of practicing proper husbandry if you ask me.

Snakes are SOLITARY creatures!
Snakes CAN pass illness to each other!
Snakes DO regurgatate once in a blue moon, with your methods, you'll never know who it was.

You are still learning, that's good. But learn this lesson fast, and keep snakes the RIGHT way which is in individual enclosures, with individual heating elements, individual heat controlling devices and so on. Individual.

This post is not, and not meant to be "hostile" Its simple some facts that I hope you realize and take action on.

he only asked a question, chill out, keep answering the way some of you do and its a good way to get people to stay away from this site as well as a hobby that is already unduely frowned upon. It seems there a couple people who always pop up with a coarse way to get there point across, to me the only thing your getting across is you have a need to enhance the fact that you know more than others and toot your own horn.
granted thats only a few people without the positive people i would know nothing even though i read all the books caresheets what ever i could, it was the kind courteous people that helped the most

I got into this reptile thing to teach my 4 year old nephew how to respect creatures and i read many of the post that he knows the answers to just to continue his knowledge, i read him some of the replies and a 4 year old stated "some of those people arent very nice".

ITS ALL ABOUT CHARMA PEOPLE.
and thaks to all who have always helped my nephew nd myself

How is telling him that housing snakes together (when HE himself has now said he will continue) tooting someones own horn? lol

Keeping snakes together is Wrong. If I look like I am tooting my own horn because I say so, then so be it.

marisa dont be so persumptious that you were being label as the horn tooter, or the person you were refering to, it was the way info was being presented, i have seen your post many times and never once have i seen a rude or arrogant post by you , you always been helpful to others

People get sensitve when they hear how incorrectly others are caring for their reptiles. When you are passionate about a reptile, topic or subject and someone tells you how they do it and most of their info is based on myth it can push some buttons. I remember when I got my first iguana in the 60's and the care sheets or books would tell you to feed them iceburg lettuce and ground beef. If I was away from the hobby for 30 years and someone asked me what to feed an iguana; and I said iceburg lettuce and ground beef, it would probably start a fist fight. Paul.

'Karma?'

No one knows everything about herps, I was just as clueless when I first got here....the difference though, was that I didn't own any animals that I didn't know how to take care of.

No one's really jumping down anyone's throat here, I've seen worse. I don't know if there's a polite way to let anyone know that what they're doing is detrimental to their snakes health and that they've made several mistakes in buying an animal that they didn't know how to take care of.

marisa · 10-20-04, 02:39 PM

Yeah I mean what really IS the poliet way to say someone is wrong? I mean really my post was exactly that minus a bunch of happy face gif images. LOL.

kjay- I was speaking for all messages as I feel no one in this thread at all was too rough. Especially considering the response. But nice to know.

kjay · 10-20-04, 02:48 PM

your right it wasnt that bad , my concern is somone may not ask the questions needed to keep a snake safe, i just felt bad for the guy, no harm done in the grand picture

karma, yes not charma it was early ok, lol

Artemis · 10-20-04, 03:22 PM

kjay honey, im all about my karma, believe me, but you should do a search on his other posts and read away, this one is just the tip of the iceberg for me, and I really dont have anything "nice" left to say to anyone who asks for advice, doesnt take it, and wonders why his snakes arent healthy.
