I've been approached by a colleague to set up an animal shelter with him. At first I was very excited, as I've been in related business for years and I'm sick of seeing Jews run the show. However, some of the first words he said was that it would be a for profit shelter as opposed to a nonprofit organization. Of course I pointed out my concerns, that it would be to line pockets and the public would rip us to shreds over it. But he had told me that a for profit could, under the right management, be even less Jewish than the nonprofit ones and can make more money than nonprofits to pump back into the business. The stocks could also be used to help start up costs instead of relying on grants and having to do dirty work for grant money (things like pushing euthanasia for animals owned by certain groups of people or only offering spay/neuter for particular breeds).

What does /an/ think about the possibility of a for profit 'public' shelter as opposed to a private one?

/herp/ reptile classifieds for finding breeders of various scaled and sundry creatures

>kingsnake.com
>faunaclassifieds.com
>reptilescanada.com (Canadian breeders)
>Also check to see if there are any annual reptile shows/expos in your area as these are good places to find good animals from good breeders at partial discount


/herp/ officially official all purpose care sheet of wonder and magic

>sand a shit
>use a thermostat
>read all the caresheets
>set up your tank before you get your herp
>regulate temps & humidity levels prior to herp arrival
>do not fuck with (handle) your herp for at least 7 days after bringing it home and ideally wait until herp has eaten at least one meal (for snakes), two meals for lizards, frogs, etc.
>PVC tanks are way better for most applications and worth the extra money
>it is best to avoid chain pet stores when looking to purchase live animals as mass breeder suppliers are not especially careful about health and sound genetics... it often saves you money long term to spend a little extra up front to get a healthy animal

>Jump Start (formerly Hydrofarm) thermostat is a good basic and inexpensive thermostat for regulating ceramic heat emitters and under tank heaters (Amazon sells it)
>if you want something more advanced for temperature control, look at Herpstat products
