HAHAHA!! I think I'll be waiting a long time for any of mine to reach 30 feet/60lbs. Who are these people and who considers them credible? Oh wait, these are the same people that our wonderful politicians :)devil01:) probably call in to testify when they want to ban these animals. Wonderful.

A beardie was our first pet. I agree on expensive and high maintenance! I love him, but there is a reason we only have one and I am totally fine with that.

Oh. My. God! XD

Really?? Who are these people, where are they getting this info?


Looking at their site...
I wouldn't consider any bird a "best choice" pet honestly. They carry more diseases than a lot of pets, and are extremely messy and loud. We have an african grey and a cockatiel(a "best choice"). We love them to death, but we wouldn't recommend just anyone owning one. They require a lot of maintenance and attention. They also have extremely powerful beaks, they both could bite through bone and make you loose a section of your finger if they really wanted to.

Also apparently a 30 year lifespan is only a bad thing if it's a snake :nope:
 
Psssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....these people probably think pit bulls are a "worst choice" pet...I'm not trying to start an argument, I am a pit bull advocate and own one...worst choice? no...for everyone? No...but seriously...that article was completely laughable, thanks for sharing :D
 
Joba: nothing final but definitely reading a lot! As spyderk said, since I asked about it I will most likely end up with one lol.
 
I love my boa... I think I mentioned that lol.
He is the sweetest.. He is a BCU (unknown aka generic boa). Definitely the sweetest snake I have, and I think he actually likes to come out and be handled or explore. I read that website everyone has been laughing at and I have to wonder about these so called experts....
