My point exactly also!

De-sexing animals has certain health benefits behind it. Like desexing female ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits and the like for an increase in their overall longevity. Voiding snakes has NO benefit for the animal whatsoever – it is primarily done for the benefit of the individual wanting to keep them. There is no difference to Voiding compared with that of de-barking dogs & de-clawing cats IMO

If this sort of practice becomes more commonplace people will become more ignorant. A line needs to be drawn in the sand in regards to some things, and this is one of them.

PS: I'm out of the debate, I'm pretty sure I've made it very clear what I think in regards to useless and unnecessary proceedures done on defenseless animals...pffff...the next thing we'll be seeing is people who keep those Lionfish having their spines removed! Too bad there isn't the word "VENOMOID" written all over the animal to show it up for what it really is.....at that rate it wouldn't rate too highly in they eyes of the keeper, and I doubt that I'm drawing too long a bow in saying nobody would have it done if that was the case!
