Some people choose to step up and confront difficult-to-discuss-issues in the hopes of influencing for the greater good. Others see what needs to change yet choose to simply sit back and do nothing. I'm not the kind of person to do nothing and quite frankly, I could care less what someone thinks if they're a part of the latter group.
I commend Brian for seeing the negative impact his practices have had on his animals and committing to change. That's very admirable and aligns closely with the kind of person I've heard he is and presents himself to be. I just hope that husbandry practices aren't changing too late for his animals.
I chose to confront this so that others could understand that fat rings are a visual cue that something is WAY WAY off, but there are many other invisible maladies (such as liver damage from trying to process all that food and fat, or fat build up around the heart and other vital organs) that will likely be the demise of many overfed animals in our hobby. Again, if that's okay with ANYONE in this hobby, they can exclude themselves from my list of friends/acquaintances and I'll be completely fine with that.
