Default Age Restrictions over certain length

Hm.. I saw a debate or loads of people giving suggestions and their opinions on some kid who didnt look over 13 was holding a fastly growing burm he has in a viv right next to his bed.. Anyway..

What are your views.. Should there be age restrictions etc?

i dont reckon there should be age restrictions cause that could be a slippery slope, but i do think some people need a common sense injection

i think before there is a ban on certain species (retics, anacondas, burmese and all rock pythons) then yes maybe there should be SOME sort of age restriction.

If a ban or age restriction was put in place then nothing would happen because it would only need an adult to purchase the snake. Also not to mention if a Ban on large snakes or required a licence how many actually will get that licence not to mention how many are going to panic and release there once beloved pet?
Personal Im against children having large snakes that can eat them.

Good thread Trice.

its all about sence, if the kid has some one with them.... then its fine...

say it was a over 18 thing, you would kinda be annoyed if you has been keeping snakes nealry your whole life, then this came... and you had large boids allready

You cheaky monkey. How about you post yours up also we best keep it on topic.

I agree with certain facts people have put forward but Im still against children having large burms in their bed rooms.
