I've never seen Dave be rude or 'attack' someone on here or their methods without just cause, he is very knowledgeable and helps alot of people..

Perhaps some prior research before making sweeping, generalised statements might be beneficial.

Put your handbags away......

knighty...Yes you do have some very good advice but the way you come across is its "your way or no way".

No body really has all the answers but by shareing info it will worm out most off the "School boy errors"

Thats my 50p's worth anyway

Have to agree; Knighty, as I've said before, I respect your experience, as I hope you do mine; but there is no 'One Way' when it comes to animal care: the range of equipment and resources now available is largely because of those people who tried all alternatives in an effort to give their animals a 'proper' environment. In those days, we didn't have heat mats, we didn't have full spectrum lighting, we didn't have the huge range of captive-bred live food- we were making it up as we went along. But, nonetheless, we kept our animals well, and we bred them. It's great that these things are now available, but they are aids, not substitutes for good care.

Yes i agree with you Ron, but i always stand by my ways as they have been so effective for me over the years (maybe thats just my stubborn side). I have allot of appreciation for the old school methods, they have got us were we are today, but is it not better to move with the times and the up to date research that we have access to?

Im sorry you feel i come across that way. I do feel i have to be blunt in the posts as if you are vague people seem to take what they want from it rether than what they need to. No i agree no one has every answer but some of us have allot more than others...

No need to be sorry...thats the way your are,

You can see from the way you construct your advice that animal care is a huge thing to you,which is for most off us but maybe a more "softer" approach is whats needed
