Re: Advice on New BP Home

Too right! And I agree, with the proper care these animals can live much longer than is normal in the wild. Again, Im not saying that tubs are torture or anything like that. I just get a little frustrated when people say that tiny little tubs are the only way to go and everything else is useless.

Im surprised to hear you say that you think BP are not an active snake in the wild though. They do not only ambush prey. They are active hunters in the wild and are vastly invasive as a species. They follow their prey species, they do not merely sit in burrows and wait endlessly. Ambush hunting is one way they hunt, yes, but not the only way.

I dont believe anyone on this thread has said this at any point? I even went back and scanned through all the posts, so if i missed it please show me
