No offense, you insult yourself. I talk about animals, and many here make it about them as a person. Sir, that is the first hurdle one needs to understand, if you want to learn. Husbandry is about animals. Its not personal, or about an individual human. Unless that human wants it to be.
The first response is when people make something personal, is to attack. All you have to do is, observe what happens. An example, Gregg and I both mentioned, hogs can nest the night after they shed. The first response is, your nuts, your an a hole, your this or that. That's where crap happens. Hogs can and do lay the night after they shed. The hows and whys and the whos, are all up to discussion. But folks do not want to discuss, they WANT TO FIGHT. So forgive me, I indeed grew up fighting, Boxed, wrestled thru AAU and college. So I am all in, if that's what they want me to do. I was a white kid raised in Watts, what the heck do you expect from me?
Of interest, many of you want information that you do not understand, to be given to you, ON YOUR TERMS. Hmmmmmmmmmm you want to be placated. Sadly, its not on your terms if and only if, you do not understand it. And Sadly, the best way to fail is to play on someone elses terms. Yes, I understand, humans want to play on a level playing field. Again sadly, the field is never level. And that sir is the problem here. Folks on a rack system forum, want everyone to be the same. Again, most folks want to be patted on the back. I do not do that. I do congratulate folks for work well done. But this, your the man, crap, ain't going to happen. To me, when we succeed well, that's because of the snakes, when we fail, its our fault. People here act as it they are responsible for snakes reproducing, Sadly they are wrong, they are responsible for getting in the way of what these wonderful animals do naturally. Their specific design is to reproduce and they have done so for thousands of years. We get no credit for that.
