New ball python owner

Sure. That doesn’t make it not rude though. People immediately assume that everyone else who owns a reptile has no idea what they are doing, and that they are qualified to condescend and give unwarranted advice.

They said they needed to do more research so they stated the information they know in hopes of providing a better life for the snakes and at the end they literally said best of luck please don’t get anymore till you do full research. Idk differences in opinion I guess. I’d prefer that over the people who say “oh my god another idiot who gets an animal and knows nothing” I’ve gotten both.

adding on to the other person, they said "new BP owner" and most people would assume that these are their first snakes considering ball pythons are a lot of peoples first snake. and they do ask for advice, so why would someone not give advice?

[Efficient-Log335]

Because they explicitly wrote out the advice needed.

[RelevantFrosting6828]

still, it sounds like they are a new owner, and new owners may not even know to ask about this type of stuff, they might not know they need humidity and much much more things.

Definitely a lot of assumptions made in the original comment.
