Another Stupid Question.....

toshamc Jan 03, 2005 06:57 PM

OK here it is....

In order to curb certain behaviors and acts in animals like dogs and cats we have them fixed. Now I know snakes that are never bred don't really show any signs of agression or mating type behaviors that are annoying like dogs and cats do so there are no reasons to have them "fixed".

My question is once you breed a snake do you have to keep breeding it? Or if you only breed it a couple of times, does it get agressive like a dog would or, well, for lack of a better term "randy" when not bred? Or is it just a mechanical thing with them where if its there they do it but "out of sight is out of mind" thing?

Does that make sense what I'm asking?

I know stupid question, but the thought crossed my mind.

The snake won't get aggressive or anything. The only thing that might happen is it will go off feed every winter.
