Things could change in 5 or 10 years, but generally I do not plan on breeding my snakes. Pineapple wouldn't be a snake to breed anyway, he is amel, which seems quite common, and has no known hets. To me, he's more then just a breeding stock or color combo.
If a pet stopped eating, I think most people would do what they could to keep their pet alive unless it was suffering. That being said, I can't be sure my snake isn't suffering due to some internal problem beyond my knowledge. But if I can force feed him a few times, maybe that's all he'll need to get back on his feet and not pass away. If he does pass away, at least I did everything I could.
This isn't meant as an attack in any way, just trying to point out that I love my snakes as pets or little family members, and I'll do anything I can to help this one survive.
