You somehow learn to follow a method, a shoebox or whatever method. You start knowing nothing, then you learn as you go along. There are steps and changes and so forth as your animals grow and reproduce.



Yet, when you heard about what we do, you forget that all methods take steps to learn. You just want to go to the end and be done with it, then say, see it doesn't work.



Its not the method that did not work, it would the person doing it that failed. You do it poorly. Sorry, the results tell that you did it poorly.



When you were learning the control method you practice now, you made mistakes, you kept working until to reached what is considered normal. I hope you understant, the method you use is a lot of work and causes lots of problems.



when allowing the snakes to BE, the snakes they are. The method I use and bluerosy uses, is much easier and avoids the common problems your method is so entrenched with. You know, poor nesting, bacterial infections, etc.



My method is based on the animals knowing how to live in conditions that are so much more harsh then your captive conditions. They live now and have always lived in conditions above and below what their requirememts are. That is what behavior is for, to gain what you need for a range of choices.



And no, we do not have to go all extreme like you dingbats normally do. I am talking about a range of temps, humidities, and security that the snakes are familar with. Which means, they know how to move, in, out, up, down, to gain their needs. That is what they do, that is what all their adaptions are for.



You guys get all goofy about respecting different species, yet, you keep them all the same, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha They are different species because they do something a little different, like gain the same needs, food, temps, humidity, in slightly different ways. Yes, you ignore that, but want pure, How funny.



So yes, I do have an attitude, and why not. You folks often speak out of both sides of your mouths. You know, local specific etc etc etc and then keep them all in plastic shoeboxes. hahahahahahaha
