Everything has its value to each individual. I have been around my snakes so long that each and every one of them has their own indvidual personality. Treat it well, and they will treat you the same. And yes, they are cuddly. And yes, they are cute. Feeding for me is only for the owner, not for everyone else who wishes they had one. But I guess I can spend anywhere from $1,300 and up on a dog that will last approximately 13 years, if you're lucky, and I love dogs. But, to each his own. Apart from owning a snake is the price ranges, I think it is the utmost rediculous to spend large amounts of money on reptiles because they have a stripe or a unique color. But then I feel the same way about dogs. But I all fall back to each his own. Its an individual taste and choice. If someone is willing to pay high price for anything, let them spend. Because when people stop paying high prices for each and every animal or reptile they will all come down and eventually find a home with any person.
