Re: My ACE prefers cold?

OP is the troll

Well...at least when the snake gets bigger it'll have enough food for a year with the cats and rabbit being around.

Not hardly. And I am likely old enough to be your mother so you should really respect your elders.

Respect is something that is earned, not given because of age. What I have seen you post here, you deserve no respect form the reptile community. The only thing I can see you post being is a joke on what not to do with your snake.

Nicely said =)

And OP, if you don't even understand 'the humidity thing' it amazes me you still have a snake.

If you don't like what this community has to say about your husbandry or you seriously feel that what you're doing is fine, but love your animal, take it to a reptile vet and find out what's wrong with him.'liking' cold is not in any reptile's nature so there may actually be something wrong. And if you LOVE him like you claim, you should fix whatever it is he needs to make sure he's as healthy as he is happy.

Kids are perfectly happy eating junk food and staying out past their bed times, but that doesn't make it HEALTHY.

And if you go to another forum with this same question, don't be butt hurt if you get the same responses. Forums are notoriously over run with us fanatics, so few will agree with your views or pat you on the back and say "cool, that's ok".


You're doing wrong by your pets, hard truth hurts sometimes, but that doesn't make it any less true.

And I mean all your pets. Won't surprise me one bit if one of your cats or rabbit go missing...or that your snake is found wounded or dead if the cat manages to get the upper hand in that battle. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not next month....but eventually, it's bound to happen.

Love him all you like, but sadly, love is not enough to fix your issues.

P.s. As for the troll comment...Trolls generally try to piss people off...you're just ignorant and stuborn.

I never made a troll comment, I simply refuted the fact that I am not one.
I came here with a serious question and still haven't gotten an admission that it "could" be a possibility, that he likes some cold.

If he was so bad off, he wouldn't look as good as he does unlike some of the photo's of others I have seen posted on the forums, especially that poor yellow, scrawny thing somewhere in here.

If I were stubborn, I wouldn't have taken the very small bit of advice, looked up info about humidity, changed the closet around to accommodate the same arrangement and items his aquarium had, etc.
He has eaten anything from medium to large frozen thawed mice to large rats frozen thawed 33 for the year and shed twice.
No mouth rot, no mites, no resp infects, not skinny, etc. I'd say I have done him damn well as a first time owner.
And if he was so deprived and miserable out roaming around, why, with the newly improved closet home is he crawling all over the closed door wanting out??? Don't answer that.

And have a great Christmas.

I'm gonna answer it anyway. Snakes are always trying to escape their enclosure. It's just what they DO.

I'm no snake mind reader, but I'd guess: they're opportunistic eaters and there's possible opportunities to eat someplace-not-there, so they keep trying. They're not exactly brilliant animals who realize futility or the things we do for their own good.

I love my scale children, but I don't see why it's so hard for some people to see that these animals are not dogs/cats.

With this type of trash mouth, uncalled for response, it's no wonder no one will respect you. Have a nice day.

i'm a father of 4 and grandfather of 5,that does NOT give me automatic respect,respect has to be earned in this life

feck all that respect your elders crap there's some well nasty old people out there,so if they don't earn it,it's simple they don't get any...

that's just my way of doing things,now that i think about it,my whole country thinks this way,in Scotland respect is earned never just given

i give everyone the same fair chance,also i treat people how they treat me (look at my signature)


i wish you a merry xmas and a happy healthy new year

All the best,Shaun

P.S. If you won't take credible advice,then this thread has ran it's course imo
