    If some one says something that isn't correct they get corrected.For example,there isn't a problem with the moderators the problem is yours.

    The husbandry of garter snakes is not a science, it is an art. We will never know everything about how to keep these wonderful snakes. When I am giving advice, it is merely my own experience. That is also how I view the advice given to me.

    As it should be. There is no single right way or wrong way. There is still much to learn and the learning doesn't stop with Jeff and Scott. Doesn't stop in our lifetimes in fact. Even Doctors and zoologists continue their education throughout their lives. Even they don't "know it all"

    I think this forum handles bad advice well. Calling people out on questionable things is done all the time on this forum.
    It sounds to me like there are some specific issues you are talking about.

    And just how often are they here to give advice anyway? Seems the only times they show up is when they want to sell something. Well, not always, but often that's the case, and that's understandable.

    So you pick out two people who, whilst no doubt knowledgeable, rarely share anything on this forum? I find your post rather odd.

    I greatly respect both Jeff and Scott, but as the saying goes, "asking a breeder for veterinary advice is like asking a pimp about gynecology." The whole point of a forum is to pool ideas and experiences. Together we have more experience than any individual. Yes, some of the advice doled out can be questionable, and some of the questions can be inane, but a forum is not a handbook - it's not automatically canon. ANY forum post from ANYONE should be taken with a grain of salt, at least until you figure out who knows their stuff and who doesn't.
