Was that sarcasm lol, or did you mean who buys their snake without doing any research on snakes first?

To me, if you are thinking of getting an animal, you need to be damn well sure you know what it requires to take care of that animal and have the capability (mentally, time-wise and financially) to look after it properly without it dying.

To buy a pet python and then start asking all kinds of questions afterwards is just backwards thinking to me.

I had my tub, UTH, substrates, thermometers/hygro, water dish, 3 hides, sticks, red bulb, thermostat and even prey all set and ready to go before the snake even arrived! I'd read 1 book on BP's and 1 on general snake husbrandy (and biology) as well as 25+ hours on this site before even committing to a purchase. Hell, I even left my UTH/thermostat on and running correctly for 2 days beforehand just to make sure all the temps were right in the setup.

Now I'm wondering if this person was even legit, or was just BSing us???

Re: My new python

Re: My new python

Woww... just wow

If you can't afford thermometers what makes you thin you will afford feeding medium-large rats every week.

If only he'd listen to all you guys, accept his mistakes and agree to change them.

Re: My new python

Listen Cookie. Your posts make my head hurt. If a snake is too much work maybe you should invest in a pet rock. I believe Aaron is having a lot of success breeding his.
