Why don't you ask questions about what you are really thinking rather then trying to argue or beat around the bush??



Like if the feces are that much of a danger, then there must have been some problems in your mind, then ask what problems have resulted from keeping it there. Or ask why he left it there to try to get an understanding of what's going on. I think you may need to get out into the field and see actual monitors to understand many behaviors.



If you say the bulb is too close, there must have been several injuries from it, then ask what injuries have occoured in that particular setup. If none, then you must have some bad information in your head and ask why there wasn't any injuries.



If UV bulbs are needed, then ask what illnesses or damages have occoured due to no UV added ever. If none, and the animals complete life events, then ask yourself why is it needed and what would it do for the animals that isn't being done already?



This is a place for discussion, and disagreements. There's no need to argue or turn it into an argument at all. Just two sides, with one not haveing any real world experience, and another having more than any of us on here.



If I were you, I would go to the field, study what real monitors do in person. Then keep a couple groups yourself, raising both ways and see for yourself what happens.
