I can't think of anything to say that would describe my thoughts for the people that have told them that.
It's a shame to see and hear things like this, because it's not only the owners fault that they are unintentionally being cruel.
However, the best research ANYONE can do is to get lots of info and make their decisions based on the info they have.
They should've looked further than one place, most people on here have also done research elsewhere on the internet as well. |

I think books are an under rated resource, I have learned things from a book when the info was unavailable on the net. I have to top book on the recomended books on this page. I know your sis was givenpoopinfo but you could advise this book to help get them started.

if it's a juvenile or adult (older than a yearling) then yes, you can brumate snakes without a heat source for a few months and without feeding them (as they need heat to digest their meal).
but as for only growing to 3' i've no idea what that's all about! |
