What chaps my hide is, as a normal human being, when you see the females doing "what they do" With a drive and focus that's amazing, and to see how little laying eggs effects them. Its simply a joy to see. So when I see NICE folks, confine gravid females in tiny boxes, that light shines in, with a hand full of sphagnum moss, eggs scattered all over the box, it not only does not give me joy, it actually makes my stomach hurt. That's based only on the poor female snake, nothing to do with the keepers. If someone forces me to think about why nice people would torture a snake like that. I have no answer. None what so ever. I simply cannot see that. So please explain to me, WHY WOULD ANYONE PUT A ANIMAL YOU, like? love? tolerate, thru that? Forgive me please. I just do not understand how this slips by folks. Heck I do not understand it at all. The reality is, its not my problem. Its not others problem, the problem is the female snakes that are forced to lay their eggs in the most unnatural way a person can think of. Discussion welcome in both areas, the nesting and my whining. please understand, I don't whine much. But this crap nesting knots my poor gut up. I will end with a semi quote, so many put tiny boxes in side tiny boxes,Jack Nicholson in the movie, One flew over the Coo coo's nest. What's with all the F'in BOXES
