Its not about preferable or practical, or all this and all that theory is so much simplier. In a world of failure, this have worked extremely well. As simple as it is.


In a world of extreme practical failure, just look around. Many seem to talk an advanced scientific language with complex analogies, of this and that, how it should fit in with this and that theory or how it shouldn't.

The point is simple, very few things have worked, and this is one of them that has worked, no need to explain it, or catagorize it. It simply works well.

Look at the pics above, a baby, then in one year an adult, that adult is a vibrant, as healthy as robust as any on any diet. End of that story.

I think people like to talk theory for lack of experience, they want to talk scientific to sound complicated and intelligent. The fact is, these are small animals(reptiles) not so much different then canaries, or parakeets, or cockatiels, or hamsters, you feed them, care for them, supply what they need and they succeed. Its simple not complicated. OK, nesting is a bit complicated but no different then parakeets. FR
