And just because there is BS on the forums, we now can't "enjoy our snakes"? Huh?

Some people like having a pet snake to WOW their idiot friends with. Some people like having a pet snake because they are easy to care for and are hypo-allergenic. Some people get them because they are a fad. Some people get them with the sole purpose to make money.

If the treatment of the snake is the same, for arguement's sake, and all other things are equal, what makes any of those reasons BETTER than the others? Hmmmm......

I myself have Ball Pythons purely as an investment. I've been breeding them for fun since 1992, but now its just for an investment. For fun, I work with another 9 DIFFERENT snake species. That's where I get my true snake fix from. Funny thing though, take a look at the care of my BP's, which are there purely as an investment that I bought with "snake money" and take a look at 99% of the WC Ball Pythons in aquariums on kid's dressers in N. America, and tell me which gets the better care.

Who CARES WHY you have snakes? If they are properly cared for, that's all that matters.
