I think Zulu's reference to 'Dr Hoser' was a sarcastic comment relating to the fact that Hoser performs surgery on his snakes.

:p

Hix
 
OOOOhhhhh, stupid me. Yes, I will go and get a bottle of Red. Funny thing is, Vets & Medical Practitioner's are really only honorary doctors anyway.
 
Like I said Mr Rescue
"unless I missed something.."

My lawyers are drafting the full public apology you demand and further correspondance re this issue is pending advice from the attorney genral. I have been advised not to say anything further than this on the grounds it may incriminate me! :roll:
Now I remember why I dont have folk with badges on my site!
come down to earth mate, You can breathe the air, honest! :)
 
Hi everyone. I love everyones comments. At 5:15 in the morning and having not been able to sleep, it's pretty good value.

Just a question! I have read a couple of Hoser's books and found them o'k. I don't have an opinion on him and find people like Brian Barnett and Afro to be the leading Herps that I know (you can pay me later guys).

Just wondering what everyone has against the guy? I must have missed something! You can PM me with any info, gossip, inuendo, stories etc.

He seems to have a few people offside!

Keep up the good value comments coming. What a pisser! Can I say that? :oops:
 
Thats "Urinater" around here shamous1 ! Guess you missed that one in ther censor Dave! :)
 
Lmao, sounds ridiculous dont it, like police talk, they cant just say "car" has to be "vehicle" :lol:

I dont mind of you say "pisser" , im not as conservative over here. :lol:
 
I'm glad I'm not the only idiot on at this time of the morning. Let me rephrase that. I'm glad I'm not the only person on at this time of the morning.
 
raymond hoser

i don't get it, a lot of people don't like him. he certainly takes fantastic photos. i think it's ok to call yourself a leading herpetologist if you've been around for a few decades and got a couple of books under your belt. i haven't met a herp who most folk don't find a bit weird, it takes all types.

Sorry Pete, got a bit carried away. pm'd ya. :lol: :wink:
 
It's my (albeit limited) understanding that a 'herpetologist' is a zoologist who specialises in reptiles, which denotes a university degree in the field of science, with perhaps even some post-grad research?
*Nothing wrong with being a little pedantic right? heh.
I'll admit I'm not informed on Hoser's credentials, but just having years in the hobby doesn't make you a leading herpetologist in my eyes, I don't care how many books you've written Madonna :roll:
 
Unjust - Unfair - Unknown

I am confused. Everyone, or should I say most people seem to not like Hoser. Is it jealousy or are you all totally correct with your comments.

This thread and the statements about him confuse the hell out of me. Our family have only been into herps for around 5 months, so maybe it is ignorance on my behalf. I asked for people to PM me so I can possibly understand in some way.

There would be a lot of people that are a lot newer to herps than me and I am just wondering what they are thinking when they read this thread. I believe that if people are going to bag someone then the facts should be presented. Not everyone knows the facts, or are there no facts at all, just summations.

Please make me understand. :cry:
 
I understand a bit more now!

Hi all,

I've had a couple of PM's from people who will remain anonymous. :wink:

I have a bit more knowledge on the subject and can see why people are rather, how should I say, sarcastic when the mentioned person is the topic of conversation.
8) :wink:
 
Ummmm???" but he probably dribbles about the same amount of BS as most of the people on this site - as evidenced by fuscus poll ." Ooops! Must have missed the Fuscus poll. What was that about people?

A joke entry on page one of this thread cheryl. I can't understand why it was singled out.
 
lmfao good one fuscy old man lol, I often wonder if there is any end to this bloke. I would love to know if he believes his own crap or maybe his mummy is telling him all this about how good he is. Snake Busters?? Doesn't that sound like someone who doesn't like snakes? I will put Steve against him any day..... Pft Hoser if you read this then would like to say get off your high horse before you fall and hurt yourself lol
 
Oh and fo the record we can use and say the name snake busters as much as we wish because it is also a business registered in the UK.....soooooo....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters.....Snake Busters....
 
Hi all.

I've just been looking at some pics of a snake strapped to a table and having what I would think would be a rather stressful and painfull procedure.

I understand what all the fuss is about now and have changed my opinion on the matter a full 180 degress
 
He was in the paper yesterday being photographed kissing his snakes and his "trademark" bajillion snakes around his head and putting on a huge bravado about it all.

Oh I just remembered reading how Ray likes to "test" if his venomoid snakes are still venomous. He uses live rats & mice which have to be put down because the snakes dont let go, not to mention the danger he puts the snakes in when the rodents could quite easily fight back effectively. I would have thought that the correct way would be to milk the snakes for venom but you just know that when your name is "Ray Hoser" you just have to pay that sort of stuff off
