Graham,

You don't need to defend yourself.

I see from your posts and pictures that you take excellent care of your animals. You owe NO ONE an explanation.

Justin,

As far as why some people catch hell for things on this board and others don't? Well, somehow I think that has more to do with who's reading what post, who feels like responding and what each person's personal crusade is.

Justin, by the sound of your post you were obviously stung by other peoples opinion on your mixing species. And to be honest, that's your decision and your business. I can tell from your posts that you know what you are doing and you aren't an irresponsible keeper, looks to me that you also take excellent care of your animals.

But, last I knew, this forum was for tortoise questions, not for "hey, why isn't anyone else getting hell for this?" type of questions.

Can't we just respect each others opinions without all this s***?

Peace,
~Chiistine

: Hmmm, just been thinking, how come when I post a pic of my greek tortoise in the same vicinity of a leopard tortoise, I catch a ton of crap. But when people see a sulcata in snow they respond in a positive manner and seem to think it is cute and funny. Honestly which situation is more irresponsible. After seeing the pics how many inexperienced people are going to try it with their animals?
