How would you feel if you heard you DR. say "I have a good grasp of how to medicate"? I've found many WC animals to be in better shape then something you would get from a petstore. Your post made me laugh, reminded me of the little old lady telling somebody, "my car made a click and then this clack clack sound, do you know what it could be"?

Your snakes could be suffering from, stress, worms, crypto or even just a lazy keeper! I doubt just treating something when you don't know what if anything to treat would be a good idea. That's a little like your Doc taking out your liver in hopes it will cure your being lazy.

"WC ratsnakes are not the best specimens to work with"

So why are you?

"and they should not evoke an emotional response to legitamate questions."

Poor care of animals is an emotional topic in this and any other forum, Rhonda was very nice, I wouldn't have bit my lip the way she did.

"I consider this forum to be a tool like any other tool in treating, medicating,housing or reproducing specimens in my collection."

First mistake, this isn't a tool so you can post something and always hear what you'd like. You better be ready to hear something you don't care for when you post or else you need to stick to books. The responce isn't always go to tickle those lazy little ears.

Best of luck,

PS I'm sure you don't care for anything I had to say. I've put my email address at the top so you can waste my time with trying to slam me and not burden the rest of the forum readers.
