Its sad that I have spend 90% of the post explaining what should not need explaining. Keeping is not A or Z. Its all manner of levels based on what the keeper wants. Recipe or shoebox keeping was a method designed for commercial breeders such as Gourmet Rodent, or Reptile industries. Where they hire folks to maintain the production of tens of thousands of units. For the least cost and the most profit. Call that A. or keeping a few animals in the best possible way, Call that Z. The reality is, there is 24 levels in the middle all valid and that have reason. Back to insanity, its sort of "insane" for a private keeper that has very few animals, to keep them the A method. The commercial approach. Yet this is commonplace.
Back to the animals, so much of what we see in captivity is out of order insane behavior. Our task is to bring that back into some degree of a functioning order. End part 3
