I totally dislike. I have been watching some videos about them on Youtube, specially the Snake Bytes ones... Eish, they are not appealing to me, although they must be interesting to touch for sure. A scaleless snake is really only half of a snake to me. Maybe I need to see them in person? Or maybe I just need to get used to them. But for now it's a no no. |

Ah well this is a discussion that takes it to the next level. What would you say if I asked you all about Silkie Bearded Dragons? I personally think that Scaleless can be nice at times but things like Scaleless Rattlesnakes are not for me. I wouldn't own one and I do agree they are very unnatural but they do not need different care to a normal corn snake... I do think that some of them look pretty nice too, though I've only seen pictures. All I can say is that if you don't like Scaleless Snakes but do like Silkie Bearded Dragons then why? |

Same as Donnie, not one I'd want, but strangely would like to know, what it feels like to hold one.

for me its not a care issue, clearly the various morphs etc come from selective breeding, but how far does this go, messing with ginetics etc, they cant be healthy. never seen a silkie beardie. im sur they look ace, but at what cost?

Look them up. See what you think. Guessing you don't like the Scaleless Snakes then? |

Just watched the snake bytes episode and can see how it would be horrible for a wild snake but in captivity I don't think it's a downfall for them apart from keeping a close eye for easy injuries. I do think certain morphs look beautiful scaleless in colours and. Some.. Not so much. As i've never seen one in person I'm still not sure where I stand with them. Interesting little critters though! |
