NERD supports Voids and plays with them

*sounding

A retraction of the "Bad Guy" at http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...ad.php?t=65172 would also be in order.

Yes it is. I am almost tempted to give him postive rep points for it.

I will admit to making mistakes, trust me we all make them and I have made plenty.

Yes we all have. Actually there is a quote from someone here and I cannot remember who said it but it has stuck with me since I read it the first time. It goes something like "an error is not a mistake unless you don't learn from it". Quite apt IMO.

I have too seen that quote, that and "A mistake is a mistake until you admit you are wrong".

Hello everyone

Ok there is a problem I see. And it is not NERD having voids. I couldn't care less that they have them. as stated they were took in as rescues. I say GOOD FOR THEM!

My problem

Why do you have to have hands on with a void? Lets say that gaboon turned and bit the kid. It would hurt like hell even if it could not produce venom. But lets say the kid did need metical treatment. I promise you it would make the paper as 90% of bites do and it would not say. Venomoid gaboon bite. It would say Deadly gaboon bites kid at a local herp show at NERD! It would not have to be a kid. It could have been any adult and then in the sue happy world NERD getting sued for a HOT bite not a void bite.

There is no classification(sp) for a void bite.......... It would say the species and if it is a hot species you guessed it it would be logged as a hot bite.

You can read my posts on my site. I am not shocked that nerd has voids. EVERYONE knew that. They say they got them from rescues. I am not going to call them liars. They say they got them that way then they did. But to have a hands on show with voids is wrong IMO. Does that mean everyone here should think the way I do? NOPE. It is my opinion and you need to form your own.

Voids give you a false feeling of security. But all it takes is one bite from a "void" that is trully hot. You get bite by a "void" cobra and you think ah it is a void who cares. You do not seek medical attention. But wait it delivered a hot bite. You waited valuable time thinking you were fine and now need to rush to the hospital and hope they get the AV in time.

So many things can go wrong with hots or "voids" open to public like that IMO

and that is my only problem. I see it as a I am cool type thing, see what I can do with this cobra or gaboon. We are one of the best breeders and we can do it. That may not be what NERD ment to come of this. But this is what I take from it. again it is my opinion.
