WELCOME TO THE 4th EDITION OF THE WEEK IN REVIEW

THINGS TO CONSIDER:

Differences between babies from wild caught parents vs captive bred parents?

New baby boas are sometimes aggressive

Accidental mating of young boas

Thermostat Info

Power Feeding vs Regular Feeding

Feeding Live vs Frozen

Is too much soaking harmful?

Do you use diurnal temp cycles (night drops)?

Starting up a Herp Society

Are you addicted to looking at photos on this forum?

Its NOT always about boas, click here to see what I mean



QUOTE and TIP OF THE WEEK (all in one):

Constipated Suriname RTB info please

THINGS THAT SUCK:

Being a Delivery person for this job:



From Sevier Serpents



Other things that suck…

IBD, Star-gazing, Rat Bites, non-feeding snakes

“what’s wrong with my snake?” threads (these suck for the person posting…but we all learn from them)



New Florida Laws



I don’t know maybe it’s just me but I hate posts that do not have punctuation to separate sentences or complete thoughts if I am reading one of these posts I get a headache I have a hard time following maybe it’s my ADD maybe it’s just that the poster was in too much of a hurry to think about how it may sound if read aloud I hope when you read this you also find that it can be quite annoying but I don’t mean to be cruel it’s just one of those things that fits in the “Things that Suck” category lol



WELCOME NEWCOMERS and LURKERS:

Welcome Trey Schneller

Check out some of his collection pics:

Welcome First time poster to the forum – BoidaeAddiction



FINAL THOUGHTS:

Sorry to all those waiting for the WIR. I put this one together a little faster than the others.

I went auto shopping early Sat morning, got a 4x4 for future off road herp expeditions

Plus we got over a foot of snow in my area

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed!
