Why buy? aerocontrols Send a noteboard - 17/06/2011 01:32:34 PM
A purchased snake isn't likely to be tamer than a snake you just go out and catch. Just stay away from the endangered ones and go grab you one in the wild outdoors.

Dogs are cuddlier, though. Snakes aren't for petting.

Except that one kind.
Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion.

Live feeding is illegal in the UK, unless the snake in question refuses all other food. Morgawse - 16/06/2011 11:14:46 PM 962 Views
What? Why? *NM* Avendesora - 17/06/2011 05:55:13 PM 359 Views
I don't know, but... Morgawse - 17/06/2011 06:01:45 PM 981 Views
I can't speak for the illegality, but... Cockatiel of Doom - 21/06/2011 02:23:36 AM 1232 Views
Good enough reasons, but making it illegal?! The nanny state is so bad they're coddling snakes? *NM* Avendesora - 21/06/2011 11:50:13 AM 377 Views
Or people. Or mice. It's hard to tell. *NM* Cockatiel of Doom - 21/06/2011 10:37:34 PM 589 Views

I can't prove it, but believe the reptilian brain too primitive to comprehend concepts like "love". Joel - 16/06/2011 10:11:20 PM 1029 Views
Why do you assume we'd get a big snake? Rebekah - 16/06/2011 11:15:45 PM 1068 Views
