Heres a simple explination as to what I do. I have moved from one type of reptile to another, over many years.
Whenever I move to work with a new type, I follow a loose plan. I first take a year or two for discovery. During that period, I research, gather information and animals, and test as much as I can. I also include as much field work as I can.
I also come to places like this and how to learn and share if I can. In all cases, places like this has a range of keepers. All forums include folks of all types. As I expected, hogs being primarily rack system snakes in captivity(they tolerate small places) this forum would have a high percentage of one way folks. And it does.
What scares me is, all forums have a percentage of yahoos, lurkers, creepers, trouble makers. And this forum seems to have a high percentage. To a point of, you gotta be nuts to keep hogs. I with be discussing this with my therapist.
