The actual point thats missing is, Bluerosy, Me, and others have no problem keeping them in groups and even feeding them together. And we have been doing so for such a very long time.

You that want to argue, can make up anything, or say anything or blow smokescreens as you want. The point is simple. WE do it and you don't.

About bonding, if you don't have experience with that, then you cannot recognize it if you saw it.

The point is, if you keep them singlely in cages, you cannot ever see any of this. So there is no way you can judge it.

In the case of these types of reptiles, bonding means, two individuals seek eachother to mate, live near or with, for prolonged periods. To choose/perfer over other males.

When raised together, this bond forms. Later in life, they can still bond, but its never the same.

There are many degrees of bonding.

Also, you folks can do whatever you like, that you fight so hard against this means, its about you. if it were about the animals, you could simply test it or ignore it.

Back to the top. You that think its WRONG, Kirby, please explain why We have no problem doing it.

Now for my "bragging" many of the morphs you cal king guys play with, were created this way. That is, they were kept in pairs and groups.

If I think about it, its about method, in the old days, we made our own cages and they were roomy and had subfloors and such. Now days, you cannot fit two adult kings in a tiny sweater box. So yes, you have reason to say it doesn't work and you would be right, not in a tiny sweater box.

So fellas, explain why we have no problems. You see, that is the key.

p.s. that means, not just why we can do it, but also why can't you? Same species after all.
