In short, the general consensus is that daddy may not actually have the mental capacity to know better, although it's still speculative. Don't recall anything being said about mommy though.

You never see his mom but she does record some of his videos, you can hear her talking. His uncle makes an appearance and he looks as nuts as you would imagine.
 
If I was a reptile and I saw this every day I'd want out too. (:_(

This thread just popped up during my 'its evening, I'm exhausted, going to bedImeanKiwifarms' phase. Now I feel depressed. I really hope this twerp got bitten and had all his pets taken away and put into better care. The lack of basic empathy he displays is shocking. As an animal-lover and somebody who was once forced to witness what amounted to repeated cases of malicious animal abuse without personal recourse at the time, I really, honestly find it impossible to feel sympathy for these kinds of people. I think the best sentence for animal abusers is to spend a minimum of one year living under the same conditions they're accused of keeping their pets in, without the possibility of parole.

Of course, if he did get bitten, odds are the animal responsible was destroyed. But with any luck, such an incident would make him so terrified of animals that he never touched them again.

I'm really sorry for being this A-Loggy, I swear I'm not this bad at least 35% of the time!
 
Oh my Christ that little SHIT.

As you can tell from my icon, I am also a reptile person (that's Tiamat the Australian water dragon on my head), and this shit infuriates me. And the fact that he has not one, but TWO tegus....:twisted:

I've had a lot of reptiles, but tegus are my favourite. My husband and I had a beautiful red tegu named Sherman (who was rescued from an abusive situation and died young because of long-term health complications due to that neglect), and they are the most amazing pets. IF you handle them correctly, they are docile, social, trainable, and fun. They're also SMART; some keepers estimate they're about as smart as a dog. If you're willing to do the modifications, you can actually have a tegu free-roaming in your house, the same way you'd have a dog or cat. They're also challenging; they need a lot of heat and humidity, eat a lot, and can't really be toilet trained. If you get them young, you have to spend a good amount of time every day talking to them and socialising them to tame them down. Also, if you do get bitten, they really fucking bite. An adult tegu can take your fucking finger off (which I really, really wish would happen to Boaman). They need a lot of care, a lot of interaction, and a lot of time.

THIS is how a happy, healthy tegu should look and act:


The tegus this miserable little rat spawn is manhandling are stressed, dehydrated, poorly socialised, and don't have enclosures nearly big enough or with enough enrichment. This is the equivalent of keeping a frightened dog in a small, dirty cage for its entire life, and it enrages me.

It's really his parents' fault. The kid himself is obviously fucking retarded, and they're the ones who not only buy these animals for him but allow him to keep them in squalor.

The parents absolutely take most of the blame, but even a kid with severe mental disabilities can be taught how to handle an animal respectfully and to have empathy for it. This kid obviously sees these animals as nothing more than toys, cool living action figures he can add to his collection.

people have been calling this kid out on his bad husbandry for ages and he pretty much just swings it back around and accuses the accuser of being abusive their animals. Also he's so fucking convinced snakes are domesticated which they're not really because they don't have the genetic behavioural change that truly domestic animals go through (think cats, dogs or even goldfish all of these are totally different behavior wise from their wild ancestors) it's true corn snakes were selectively bred to create different morphs but a captive corn snake that was specially bred isn't any different behaviorally from a wild corn snake. Snakes can become used to humans and can tolerate handling but they aren't domestic in the true meaning of the word

Ehh, Ball Pythons and Corns MIGHT be domesticated. The problem is that captain pork chop over here does not understand that domestication does not bring less regulations on pet animals. In fact, domesticated animals are more regulated.

Very true. No reptile is a truly domesticated animal. They can be tamed, sure, they can even come to enjoy being handled if it's done properly, but their instincts and behaviours are still very much those of a wild animal. That's part of why anyone who wants to keep reptiles needs to educate themselves and learn how to properly handle their animals, and even then, chances are at some point you will be bitten. My dead tame, cuddly-as-fuck carpet python nailed my hand when I fucked up, and even though she let go right away there was quite a bit of blood to clean up.
 
Honestly, I'm shocked the anaconda hasn't nailed him yet. Anacondas do not tend to have good tempers.

Give it a little while longer to grow. Soon as it gets big enough I don't think anybody will be surprised when it offs him.
