Duffy, thanks for the reply. Sometimes I feel like my snakes are "thinking" not about food but freedom. I do not think (I know) I would not want to be confined to the space we keep most captives in. I sometimes feel guilty about keeping them. I try to compensate by giving my adults large enclosures. Your right they live a lot longer in captivity and are healthier. I guess the question is what is better a healthy risk free existance or freedom. No answer expected.

Thanks,
Miller
