look it im telling you there are exeption to the rules..what ever most of you have read.sometimes is not the truth!some books out there are scams.some web sites are scams.use your best judgement.you have to remember something.everyone is out to make a buck,no matter who you are.so let me get this straight..if i wrote a book,on reptiles..and sald in my book.(well,you can onley drink the water,if its purple and when boas,bite you that meens that they love you!)you accually gonna beleive me?thought so.

i got the 2-boys boas about 2-hrs away from my house drove to where they were and bought them!!!!!and discussed with the old owners how they were brought up,feeding ect...i got the hoggs,shortly after that.she was also in a tank with another boa--red tail mind you.so her to be liveing in the same tank with the boys really has no effect on her.trust me when feeding time comes!they eat just fine..like good little boas do..

no, not at all. and we are using our best judgement.. snakes are NOT communal creatures! so why would you force them to live together? why not seperate them and see how much BETTER they do?

As for making a buck, how is them telling us to put 3 snakes together gonna make THEM money?

exactly, it won't. a responsible herper wouldn't buy that book, we actually know what we are talking about and care about our animals, and not just do what is easier for us.

im telling you!its not by conveinece that they live together.i told you.there are exeption to the rules.been there and done that.i have seperated them.you know what happened?they stopped eating,and you could almost read in there eyes the depresion going on in them.no joke.i seperated them for about 3-maybe 4 months.T-rex the brother of Frankie,just stopped eating.than Frankie stopped.soon Angel stopped, now i didnt try and feed them for at 2-weeks or so after the seperation.and the funny thing is everytime i checked on them to see how things were going,well either one or all was not acting like themselfs.attitude wise they started to change,feeding..and im telling you..(god i wish i took pictures at this time!)you could sence and see the depresion going on.after a while i decided to put them back together,and bam..back to normal.feeding back on track.attitudes back in place..hell Angel turned a bright white she was so happy.how could i the caretaker,the parent,take that all away from them.i have talked with N.E.R.D,and alot of other breeders out there about this problem of them liveing together or see if it was o.k.and as far as they know,its not unheard of or uncommon for 2-diffrent species(red tail & hoggs!) to live in the same tank together peacefully without any complications or problems.so i did what was right by my animals..

[diablos]

ok fine, If it is working for you, keep doing it, but I still cannot let the fact you cross breed go... that is just unnatural... but like you are saying, to each their own. you are going to do what you want to do anyway, regardless of what we say
