Actually I would if you would say something important. Or even an opinion, which you did a little above. But when you go back and forth about me or that or this or whatever, I assume, you have nothing to say. That seems important to you.
We all have our opinions, and opinions backed by experience. Your welcome to yours, but please, in order to have a conversation, you must offer your opinions, and reasons behind them. Which you do not do. You simply say, I believe this, I believe that. Guess what, that is not important, whats important is YOUR REASONS for believing what you believe.
After all this, I believe, you have a passion for this, but have a lot to learn in problem solving. Which is what this is. husbandry is problem solving.
Its also like fighting, with fighting, its important to know your opponent. Not just know yourself, but understand your opponent.
With husbandry, its important to understand the subject. The animal. Its here, I feel your very weak. You want it to be about you. You do this, you do that, you think this and that. While that is part of it. You seem to and many do, treat the subject, the snakes, like they have zero ability. My little rant above was to show, they not only have ability, but more, extreme ability to accomplish their goals. They can accomplish their goals, in spite of, predators, parasites, harsh adverse conditions, etc, including tiny fragile hatchlings. While you dwell on mechanics. You know, temps and humidity. They do not dwell on that in the least. Whats important to these wonderful snakes, IS HOW TO GET THOSE basic needs. They have thousands of years of refining, on how to get them. Their refining is very harsh. Make a mistake and your dead. Those basics you pick, thems and such, are as Gregg mentioned, very universal to snakes. All species are within a few degrees, what makes them different, is HOW they acquire those basic conditions. I hope you can keep up. I am jumping ahead. pt1
