In this thread we will be able to talk about another Petubers flaws. We will started with the basic kit of narcissistic self involved characters such as:
Emzotic
- Mentioned now and again on the TND thread.
- Complains about lolcow and similar sites, describing them as little predators in wait for pet youtubers to slip up.
- Throws a lot of subtle shade at other pet youtubers despite pretending to be 'friends' with them all.
- Moved to America to live with hoarder BYB boyfriend Danny.
- Won't show habitats for most of her and Danny's animals, keeping the exact number of animals a secret. Some examples of enclosures not shown include; Snapping turtle, snakes, and (unseen) monitor lizards.
- Thought she could cycle a fish tank with old water, put two betta together to 'breed' despite clearly knowing nothing about breeding and conditioning the fish.
- Keeps her doves in the bare minimum of cages, also keeps them next to ferrets and has let them land on the ferret cage before.
- Was paid off to set up an awful Bearded dragon enclosure including substrate that can cause impaction.
- Says she isn't planning on getting more animals but has recently taken in a skunk, plans to get another hornbill, plans to get a dog, has got a nano reef tank and two more mystery pets since stating this.

- Support TND.
- Hoards animals like most pet youtubers and likes to buy the trending animal of the month.
- Had a betta fish in a fluvial tank but it 'disappeared'. Didn't care what had happened to it.

- Hoards, breed and sell a shit tons of reptiles.
- Keep them on little plastic containers, justifying it with saying 'they like it that way'.
- Inbreeds and shows little concern for genetics outside of producing colour morphs that will sell for $$$.
- Sells bad quality, sick and otherwise ill reptiles.
- Bullies costumers if they dare to call him out for the shitty conditions his animals have when they arrived.
- Both Tyler Rugge and Taylor Nicole Dean have made collabs with him.

- Hoards animals like most other youtubers, justifies it by saying all her animals are taken to a vet. Regularly has over 30+ animals, has had over 50+ in the past.
- BYB rats, claims she doesn't any more but still ended up with sick baby rats that had to be treated for URI's and also a rat born with one testicle. Doesn't seem to know much about rat genetics but claims to have worked with breeders.
- Recently got two doves; one got sick and died. She blamed the breeder and 'genetic' illness despite environmental being much more likely. Subsequently she got another bird from a 'better breeder' to replace it, didn't quarantine properly and that bird is now also very sick.
- Is a 'wildlife rehabber'; although is listed as 'social media adviser' on their poorly made site. Charity was also only registered in Ohio in September 2017.

- Keeps parrots. Has actively lost her parrot Hope numerous times on camera.
- Flies her Parrot Hope in public parks around dogs and as such has been chased by dogs and accosted by dog owners more than once.
- Doesn't train her parrot to fly back to her on a signal, merely screams randomly.
- Has had Hope both chase native birds and be chased by native birds during her free flying, resulting in Hope being lost at least twice from this.
- Has sexually molested her bird on camera; doesn't seem to understand that touching a birds vent is frustrating for the animal and essentially bestiality.

- The worst hoarding pettuber with over 100 animals
- Keeps her animals in a small room with way under minimum enclosures
- Advises not to listen to veterinary advice, like not spaying and neutering rabbits
- Backyard breeds dogs, purposefully mixed two breeds together and justified it by saying they're designer and "these breeds are really in right now"
- Uses aerosol products and paints her nails in the same room as her birds
- Feeds her animals mostly fruits and vegetables without proper supplementation
- Her bird almost died due to poor diet (vet literally put it on seed because it was too thin from bad diet)
- Had her snake and bird out on her body during livestream
- Some of her cages have exposed wire and splotchy/peeling paint
- Extremely rude to supporters and shuts down every question that she can with a snarky remark
Just what I can think of right now, anyone else feel free to write a proper summary with whatever I'm missing (which I'm sure there's a lot)

>>560691Under BYBing dogs;
>breeds a potentially harmful gene (merle) into her dogs>there is no genetic way a purebred Pembroke Corgi can have merle in it's genes, at some point the dogs were mixed with something that had merle (It was big a decade ago to mix corgis with merle Aus Sheps to get merle corgis) so there's great evidence that she never got heritage on her dog's breeds (unless she had the other corgi? i think she had pem)and also;
>charges an OUTRAGEOUS amount for 'consultation' when she has 0 credentials, can't even say she does her own research for her own animals>BYB her goats, then the offspring of that bred as soon as physically possible due to negligence>can't afford to buy a sugarglider so she sets up a gofundme for itThat's all I got for right now. maybe have an updated animal counter for her now that she got some new snake or something.

This is my first time hearing this?
No. 560912
>>560904I have never heard her ever talk about a job before. I've also never seen her anywhere with any kind of advanced (college) schooling. So I imagine she is a receptionist at a vet clinic reading off the vet's instructions for owners. Trust me if she were anything more than a kennel bitch or receptionist she would tout it loud and proud, lord knows I do even though it's just a 2 year degree. I'm assuming she doesn't like to talk about it because 1) people will call her out on not being at least a vet tech assistant pretty quick or 2) this is a very recent job. I'm hoping it's recent because she doesn't live with her parents, just her husband who also works full time. So how the FUCK are they taking care of 100+ animals including like 20 barn animals daily? I would suggest they are millionaires that hire help but she had to start a donation page to buy a $300 sugar glider so I imagine that is out of the question.
>>560905I don't get why people are so god damn puppy crazy. I mean I guess it's nice that at least she's adopting, but there's a good chance that any rescue selling only puppies is doing some shady shit.
>>560842Skunks, while obv not popular pets, can be bought domesticated as pets. Had a neighbor with domesticated skunks, except that was before taking scent glands out was a thing. They are usually free roaming pets so I'm wondering how that will work with a potential puppy?

"I AM NOT A BAD PERSON" ~HappyTails
A wise man once said that people who have to tell you they aren't a bad person, are probably bad people.
HappyTails writes a blog about how breeding her dogs doesn't make her a backyard breeder, I'll try to summarize it;
>'I just loved the breed!'>'Breeders are hard to find!'>'Breeders are expensive!'>'I have to travel to get to a breeder!'>All of her family wanted corgis so it's ok>virtue signaling about how she worked with rescues>health 'cleared' by vet>the miracle of birth bullshit>'I didn't breed mutts I bred designer dogs'>attempts to justify breeding mutts because 'all breeds began as mutts' bulshit>goes on to say that registered dogs aren't always purebred>talks about 'mutts being healthier' bs>In the end, justifies her decision because the 'dogs are so alike anyways' and because she likes the breed>cherry-picks the BYB claims; only addresses claims she can refute>ends it with how she didn't contribute to over-population because she gave the dogs away to people she's sure will fix them and wouldn't get a non-pedigree dog from anywhere elseI didn't straight quote anything, here's the blog if y'all wanna take a look. The amount of logical fallacies in it is enough to teach an English class with.

- buys a hamster from a pet store instead of even trying to adopt
- Doesn't quarantine the hamster away from the rest of her small furries
No. 562256
>>562232Was it a chain pet store though?
A lot of smaller pet stores go through small breeders and not large mills like chain stores do.
No. 562258
>>562257Erin lives in a country where theres virtually no hamsters available for adoption because they're not a common pet.
Pickles however lives in the states, and adopts geckos etc from craigslist so i'm sure theres plenty of hamsters
No. 562262
>>562256It was a smaller pet store, however no decent breeder would supply their hamsters to a store, they'd rather home them out themselves. Small pet stores can be just as bad as chain pet stores sometimes. You'd be better off going to the adoption section of petsmart
In the video you can see theres a lot of hamsters, and they come in a lot of different varieties, usually a good breeder would be focusing on breeding for health / temperament along with only a few varieties so I doubt they'd be able to supply that many is lots of different colours
No. 562264
>>562258And the excuse for not quarantining?
I am not defending anyone but I think if you’re going to suggest one person over the other, they shouldn’t be doing the exact same thing.
No. 562267
>>562258Exactly, there is a thriving ethical breeding practice in the USA. As someone in the hamster fancy, no good breeder is going to sell through a shop. Like any animal there is a interview process, they need pictures of your enclosures, a list of pets you have.
Does Erin not quarantine? If she doesn't shame on her. I mainly like Erin because she's the antithesis of impulsive.
No. 562268
>>562267No, she doesn’t unfortunately. Never has as far as I’ve seen.
I don’t know many pet channels that do practice quarantining though.
No. 562552
>>562514Yes, mainly for preventing disease (illness / parasites etc) spreading to your existing animals. But also to ensure the new pet is otherwise healthy and adjusting.
Quarantine method varies depending on the species of animal.
For example fish, 4 weeks in a separate tank, with separate filtration and equipment, in a space where water droplette (through the air) contamination isn't possible. Is ideal. Fish are usually treated for parasitic illnesses too during this time.
For small mammals (eg rats) two weeks quarantine is usually standard (although good practice might have some folks quarantining longer). They should be kept in a separate cage in ideally a different location (two buildings), or at the same location with different airflows (ie. a completely different area within a single building). They should not share any 'common' areas with existing animals and should not come into contact with toys / equipment or even clothes that existing animals have been on. Hands /arms should be washed thoroughly from going from one area to another.
Both the above are 'ideal' quarantines although I'm probably forgetting to add something. Many people think they can get away with less or just keeping animals away from each other, but still getting them out in common areas. Sadly that means that the quarantine only works for illnesses that require direct contact and not airborne infections or even things that can pass through clothing lice etc.
No. 562739
>>560669Herpfag here, I'm really surprised by the lack of BHB content in these threads (read the last one, wasn't sure if there were more). He's got a spicy anti group on Facebook with a lot of milk.
One of my favorites is a very interesting interaction between he and Lori when he brought home the """"first""" leopard geckos for his program. She flips out and makes a scene, it's heavily implied that the last time he did this, he did no research on the animals and they all died (most likely slow, horrible deaths due to poor husbandry).
I'll see if I can find that video. There's so much milk, is everyone just taking it as common knowledge? I'm surprised to not see it here.
No. 562800
>>562739Finally someone mentions the trash that is BHB. Emzotic has Milk about BHB from her livestreams, but hasn’t said exactly what. She said in multiple livestreams that she refuses to collab or associate with him or Prehistoric Pets that she used 2 be friends with Barfczyk for years and that he visited her in England and she showed him some animals? . Then she said she was disappointed when he changed. I think it was when he had the controversy of sending dickpics to his young fans? Maybe he did the same with Em because she used to be in the same circle with the old school reptile ppl? She said Brian wanted her to produce a show for his channel when she was a zookeeper but she refused. I hope she talks about it one day. He’s the epitome of garbage but people don’t seem 2 call out the Male pettubers as much as the girl PetTubers.
Sage for speculation.

>>562931I’m not surprised Em won’t touch Bryan or Jay with a barge pole. A collab with either of them could help her channel grow, but it would be bad for her image in the long game. At least she has sense enough to stay away from the mass hoarders.
Brian is just creepy AF. I swear he’s on drugs on his videos but at conventions he’s boring and isn’t like how he is on camera. His wife Lory just impulse bought a Great Dane puppy and didn’t introduce the new puppy to their older dog properly and there was a fight because of this.

I've seen pretty of coked up white business dudes so I can't say I agree, I think he is fueled by ego alone.
HOWEVER with regard to the creep allegations, his iCloud account was apparently 'hacked' at one point and SURPRISE he has nudes of his own employees in there. I wonder how many of those cute female youtubers he collabbed with had to tolerate him breathing down their neck the entire time.
I swear to god, Lori is biding her time till he really fucks up so she can hit the road and cash in on those sweet, sweet BrianBux. They started the business together, after all.

No. 563396
>>563263Not saying he's WORSE than Brian, but he is definitely not better than him. I think the fact that Danny and Emzotic refuse to show all their animals and enclosures says a lot about the care and condition they are kept in. Danny backyard breeds snakes just to trade, so he obviously has a pretty sizable collection. Maybe his breeding set up is passable, but thats only a fraction of his collection. We've already seen peaks of his wall-to-wall rack system during Emz livestreams, but you're right, we don't know what is exactly in those racks. Honestly, I almost don't want to know what he's stuffing in those racks, or what other animals he has down in his basement.
Does he really keep his hermit crabs on calcium sand?? FFS, If he's struggling with the care of simple "starter" pets, I can't imagine his care for his other pets. How hard is it to read a care sheet or two?? Even Petco doesn't keep their hermit crabs on calcium sand

"He might be breaking the rules but he at least has control over his unleashed animal. You can't say the same considering your parrot just does whatever it wants, evident by the way it took off and refused to listen to your calls. He might have been rude, but you are being ridiculously irresponsible. Let's just call it like it is, you were both in the wrong and behaved like fools."
No. 563638
>>563396Those peaks are the invertebrate racks which she shows in her livestreams. I don’t have an issue with invertebrates in racks. The spider cages look like the expensive acrylic ones from the vendors at Whiteplains - I have the same and they’re good. The continuous speculation is unreliable so I wait for facts. I can’t speak about the hermit crab. I haven’t seen that setup. I’ve only seen the hermit setup with the deep cocofibre/sand mix which used to be where Bad Ideas enclosure is. It had hammocks and drift wood and didn’t look bad to me?
Brian is in idiot and needs to be taken off of YouTube. I don’t care what people do off camera, but portraying and glorifying mass snake production is more worrisome than what ‘might’ be happening in Danny or Ems collection.

>>563099To be fair though, there are WAY, WAAAY more folks than just Danny piling on. His contributions to the milkshake are minimal, at best. Danny provided some milk about the death of multiple 'Bubba' gators, other folks have documented the incident where he was keeping 3-4 young alligators in a kiddy pool in the middle of the shop floor. He would feed them all at the same time, one got it's leg ripped off in the frenzy. Mysteriously all the gators except the injured one vanished, probably because it took a horrendous injury for him to realize it was a fucking bad idea.
All of this commentary is a combination of people who knew the guy and watched all his videos.

>>563612I mentioned this before but I'm so happy she made it on here. She thinks she's entitled to fly her bird at the park in front of dogs bc there's no "keep birds leashed" sign.. Are they just going to put up a sign for every animal that could potentially go to that park and be let off of a leash? No. Of course not.
I've been watching her many videos of her losing her birds in free flight or sending her macaw out to fly around dangerous situations and then blaming dogs for having the instinct to chase the bird. Is it really THAT hard to go to a place that doesn't have dogs or people around? Ffs, find a field or some shit. She even sent her bird out to fly while there was a fucking baseball game going on… She's going to get her beautiful young macaw killed, and it'll be no one's fault but her own. She's negligent af.

Speaking of stupid stunts, Coyote Peterson is an idiot who makes money through provoking animals to display fearful or aggressive behavior. Somehow he gets away with it like he’s some sort of ‘expert’. He’s a fame seeking idiot in a safari hat.

No. 564623
>>564619Yeah… I commend her for talking so openly about her miscarriage… but that story with the accompanying images is a bit disturbing. Especially knowing her following is likely quite young from how she targets her videos.
Despite the 'draw my life' thing being quite dumbed down for younger audiences; I think she did it quite well there. It wasn't graphic and it explained the situation well.
This though is a bit… eh…
Just saying
Trigger Alerts at the top of a post doesn't quite cover it if you're going to show paramedics cleaning up a miscarriage and blood on your ferret from it.
No. 564722
>>564716Agreed… the blood on the ferrets nose is fresh so it's not like she took it after she got back from the hospital.
The fact that she took a photo of the paramedics cleaning up the blood and tissue is just kind of… I don't know.

>>564767This was before Danny, in 2016. Also a miscarriage is vastly different to a gory finger injury.

>>564401Basically to emulate a healthy environment for it, it would be a million times easier to just let them have access to the outdoors. Ducks are very social, a minimum of 2 but ideally at least 3-4. Ducks should preferably have some form of water to bath in but contrary to popular belief don't need it 24/7. After constant walking on hard surfaces their feet may get abrasions and contract bumble foot. Flip side, their claws easily get snagged in carpets and cause injury. Ducks CAN NOT wear diapers due to infection, and they should NEVER have to sit and/or lay in their shit. They are very prone to infections and breathing issues. So the duck would need a very large and well-ventilated area if not the whole house. To be inside for a bit is fine, but living indoors full time I imagine would be very difficult to accomplish
>>564740As someone who has been in shock and then the following depression, it makes you do some absolutely retarded and heartless shit. I can honestly understand someone doing dumb shit like this and posting about it even months after it happened in the wonderful bouts of depression and not giving a shit.
>>563784The thing about having a free-roaming animal like a flying bird off your property is that her and the free-roaming animal don't have more privileges than others and their contained animals. And that's just the law (at least in the US). If, for example, her bird was flying around in public and flew into or close enough to a leashed dog that it was eaten, the dog owners could sue her for having to pump their dog's stomach out. She probably isn't required to leash her bird in areas where dogs must be, but she will also get no love from the courts if something were to happen to her free range bird in public.
No. 564939
>>564931Again this doesnt hit me as an issue. Maybe we are just different ages (24) but I don’t see PetTube as a place to have to call people out. There would be no videos of any real interest to me if it was just like a high school of bitchy videos and gossip/drama channels. I don’t agree with any PetTubers 100% of the time, but I would lose interest once an for all if it was all just clickbait and calling out.

>>565010I'd honestly never heard of parvo before but from what I've read from Google so far, puppies younger than hers should be vaccinated to prevent it. So I assume her puppies did not get this shot (or possibly any others)? If that is the case then that seems irresponsible, but I don't watch her videos much though so I don't know if she's claimed otherwise.
She says the puppies getting parvo isn't related to the other puppy's death and I don't know enough about it to disagree. From the symptoms she described poisoning sounds plausible, I hope she's able to find whatever that puppy got into before her other animals do.
No. 565040

Depends to be honest. You can vaccinate your dog to prevent it but he can still get parvo
Parvo is not always deadly if you take extensive care of your dog however most of the dogs who catch parvo die

>>565040Actually that isn’t true. Working in an animal clinic for 4 years and seeing 30+ cases of parvo every year, we only had a small handful of deaths. It depends on how fast the owner reacts. If it goes without vet care or goes too long without vet care, yes, it’ll kill them. It has to run its course and while it does so the dog has to stay on fluids and meds to control vomiting. Vaccinating the dog as a puppy is extremely important but it’s only like a flu vaccine. It will build immunity but not prevent the virus. Plus just like with flu vaccines they generally only prevent against certain strains, your dog can get different strains of parvo. Plus, dogs of all ages can get parvo. They build immunity to it with age generally but it doesn’t make it impossible. I think it’s horrible her dog died. I feel the pain for her even though I do not like her personally, I don’t wish that pain on my worst enemy and I hope while she is grieving someone is able to help her with her pets.
Sorry for the book but I thought it may help.

Srsly though, I think maybe that’s just how they are rather than having anything to hide. The only other thing I can think of is that Dan got in trouble in Texas when he was arrested for exposing the cruelty at that Rattlesnake thing where they kill rattlers in a pit. It was (I think but not totally sure) because the roundup claimed to have only one type of permitted species but they actually poached protected rattlesnakes I think he has the footage on his old channel? Anyway he was arrested and the group who run the event it sent death threats to his house and made threats against his family. I think that’s why they moved because it was real bad trouble. He went back to Texas with an event to promote education and not killing the snakes and and the organisers of roundup came and threatened him and Em. I’m from Texas originally and down there people are crazy about killing snakes and they’re dangerous. Real redneck types. It’s so sad

Not sure if this is exactly relevant but I have noticed lately a lot of TND/Happy Tails/Tyler inspired hoarders on instagram. One has a tumblr thread advising people not to home animals to her, her Instagram is demis_zoo she’s terrible. This is her craigslist ad trying to get people to give her exotics.
I think it’s kind of relevant to this thread because sometimes pettubers come here and insist there’s nothing harmful in what they do, but this is what you’re glorifying and inspiring people to do…

>>568218I’ve personally never defended Emma because I don’t know shit about rabbits, but afaik Emma’s rabbits need to be bonded before they can all be transferred to a bigger setup, so one of hers is in a smaller temporary enclosure till then. To reiterate, I don’t know about bunnies, but that sounds about like quarantining fish/reptiles, sometimes putting them in more sparse setups until it’s safe to move forward.
This chick meanwhile thinks these setups are good, and is actively advertising to take in even more high maintenance animals too, like macaws and other parrots, large lizard species, etc. It’s clearly a bad mindset to have and will not benefit those animals already in her care.

>>568382i don't think 4x4 is enough space for two buns. maybe one, but that seems really small for two.
i have two bunnies who aren't bonded yet and they both have quite a bit of room. i fit an ikea bed, a soft cat bed, and a cat scratcher shaped like a couch in just one and there's still about twice as much room on the floor as there is taken up by all that plus the litter box and water bowl.
my only real issue with demi's set up is how fucking plain it is. my buns get bored even with the abundance of toys i buy them and she has literally nothing there. i'm assuming she hadn't added anything in there because she just rearranged, but the bunny cage looks like the least of our worries with this POS!
emma's cages on the other hand do seem a little on the small side, at least for the one bun. i understand that she's waiting until she can bond them all but i'm pretty sure expanding that xpen just a little bit wouldn't kill anybody

I thought I'd demonstrate the issue I have by using screenshots. On the left is back in February.
The top photo is her hamsters, housed in two detolfs. Hamsters got downgraded to the bin cages on the left image because she wanted the space for a reef tank.
The bottom two images is her hedgehog enclosure back in february on the left, and on the right is her hedgehog enclosure now (which is the storage rack that her hamsters and mice are in so the hedgehog has the same sized enclosure as those), which she downsized so that she could put one of her hamsters back into a tank in the space that the hedgehog was previously in, because she recently got mice which needed to go into the place of her hamsters bin cage.
and now by the looks of her twitter shes just got a dwarf hamster, so who knows whos going to have to be downgraded to find a place for that.
My argument is, whether they're still reaching the minimum requirements or not (and by the looks of it just about) why should you only provide the minimum? why should you downgrade an animals enclosure in favor of making space for a new animal? how is that fair?
Come at me with that "Hi, its Emma" bs, I'll wait.
No. 569171
>>569165Yeah, this is my problem with pettubers in general.
If you're going to put yourself out there as a source of entertainment / knowledge about animals because you're an enthusiast. If you're going to get a shit tonne of animals. Why keep them in the bare minimum? Why promote the bare minimum? Why stretch yourself so thin that most of you animals probably don't get enough interaction from you?
The whole premise of getting animals for youtube is dumb af and should be stopped. No pettuber is 'good' or even 'acceptable'. Because they all promote this shit.
Work at a zoo/vets/groomers etc. and want to promote animal education, sure! Just don't hoard animals at home.
No. 569172
>>569171I don't agree that all pettubers are shit, there are some that can control themselves and keep a select few animals that they go above and beyond for.
But it does seem to be a trend for the majority of them. They can claim they're not hoarding all they like, and maybe at this stage they're not, but it's certainly the early stages of something very concerning, when you downgrade an animals environment to make space for another (in my opinion if you don't have the space to begin with just don't even try to fit it in somewhere) or when they even rehome an animal in favor of getting another, that may not be hoarding but its definitely
problematic.
No. 569173
>>569172I disagree, often even the channels that start small with few well cared for animals go downhill. As soon as they get some publicity, they buy /more/ animals because then youtube becomes their 'full time job' and to grow they have to have more pets.
Pettube innately encourages animal buying, impulse buying and hording because that's what viewers reward. Most views aren't going to see the problems with these situations, because most views are likely uninformed about species they see and a good portion of pettube viewers are young.
You know all the elsagate shit that youtube spawned because that's what made money? Pettube is the animal version.
No. 569183
>>569176If you're an animal rescue, I don't think that really counts as hording animals at home. As long as you're a legit rescue. Kind of plays into the:
>Work at a zoo/vets/groomers etc. and want to promote animal education, sure! Just don't hoard animals at home.AKA they're not pets and so =/= pettube.
That said we 'know' Maddie is a 'rehabber' for a charity that was only set up in September of 2017 and only has her listed as 'social media advertiser' on their site. She doesn't seem to have much past experience in raising orphaned baby animals, so honestly I take all 'rehabber' claims with a pinch of salt. Along with anyone else claiming to be a 'rehabber' while clearly using it as an excuse to house yet more animals at home.

Senior dogs are rarely treated as well as they should be. You see a lot of neglect in the senior dog population because people are too cheap or too stupid. It’s not a deadly neglect, not most of the time, but too much of the time their owners stop paying attention to them.

>>572263If you barely keep up with these people, why are you here? Just because there are worse people doesn't mean that other pettubers can't be criticised. All the ones here (with exception of parrot lady), hoard far too many animals… upwards of 30 pets usually. All of them promote this as acceptable… and unsurprisingly as a result a good portion of them have large holes in their care as a result.
You might think BYB rats, keeping pigeons/doves in small cages, keeping wild birds, keeping two betta fish together, keeping rabbits in tiny cages, keeping snakes in tiny tubs with no stimulation, letting their pets get sick through poor quarantine etc etc etc is all fine.
Many people don't.
>>572275This is a board to criticise pet care. And guess what, that means /every/ pettuber can be criticised. Most of the population has shit pet care, when someone with a public platform promotes minimum standards that many people with experience think is cruel… yeah, folks are going to talk. If they give out wrong information, or promote kits that are bad for the animals in their care… yes people are going to talk. If they smear their miscarriage blood on their ferrets nose, take a picture of it and /then/ post that picture to the internet… yes people are going to go wtf and talk.
When you post your life online in a public way, don't be surprised when people talk about it.
>>572278Back before when this board was new when people were only talking about the major issues pettubers dismissed it all as a 'hate site'. See Em's tweets. This site will never be taken seriously in that regard wether it should be or not. The only time Pettubers came here they came to 'defend' themselves from the 'mean' hate. Only one pettuber even seemed to listen to any of the critiques.
They are not trying very hard to listen to people's concerns… half the comments here are about how they're flippant and dismissive when it comes to concerns. Some are outright hostile or rude.

>>572834You could definitely tell she was walling on egg shells throughout the entire video, and has taken a lot of criticism seriously.
Was anyone else a little confused by her story vs Danny's story about getting the skunk? Danny said that the skunk had been with the pet store for about 8-9 months and they don't know much about the owner. But then Emz says the previous owner entrusted the skunk to them through the pet store. So do they know the previous owner if he entrusted Emz/Danny to take care of it? And if so, why did it take them 8-9 months to adopt it from the pet shop?
No. 572866
>>572856Yeah, there's still some issues with the buying of yet more animals. I've adopted pets from pet stores before; usually they have little adoption corners (run by a NFP) including pets brought back to the store for behavioural issues, or older animals that no longer have a home etc etc. However if it's anything like my experience; the pet store probably told them about the previous owner (to which they had little to no contact) and they had to actively look for the animal to adopt.
From the sounds of it, they weren't just given this animal any more than anyone who goes to a dog shelter and adopts a dog isn't given one. They actively sought the animal out + probably paid adoption fees etc to get it.
It's a bit like with Grinchy… she saw him in a pet store and 'rescued him'. I honestly think the best plan for him might be to find someone else already keeping a hornbill, rather than buy another (different species) to keep him company.
She also mentions getting a dog again this video. I really hope she doesn't… she has a lot of time consuming pets, she didn't need a Skunk, she certainly doesn't need a dog. Honestly I've got my fingers crossed the doves don't breed either… she doesn't need 3 birds. If there's an issue with working them, work them less… they're animals, pets you care about. If your business involves them, then that might just have to involve saying 'no' to events too if you're fully booked.
No. 572869
>>572866I don’t think your point of sayingjo to work is valid. I go on outread and we don’t turn down work because animals have high overheads. Also we don’t know much about her private life of it she has debt or anything else. I’m amazed she only works them twice a week and I love that she specified not 2 consecutive days.
I’m going to recommend this to my manager.
I also don’t agree with the dog comment. If you can adequately care for 50 animals, I say fine. Everyone is different. Otherwise it becomes a finer pointing competition of who actually needs an animal. None of us do. I bet there are people who would say even 1 animal is cruel and unnecessary - even dogs and cats.
No. 572886
>>572869Saying 'no' to work is hugely important if you work with animals. If you can't say no to work, then you shouldn't be working with animals in the first place. The fact she doesn't work her doves more than 2 times a week is good. But that means you have two times a week to book those animals out; it doesn't mean you buy/breed etc more animals to fill the void when you already have a lot of animals and it's a business run out of a home (aka there are only two adults to deal with said animals care).
As far as the dog goes; they have a lot of animals that need attention, that need care. I used to own a dog, dogs take up a lot of your time. ~4 Walks a day, interaction time, training time.. etc. Reptiles and inverts might not need human time so much (although good keepers will still give them it); but they have 2 chinchillas, 2 ferrets, 1 skunk, 1 hornbill, 2 doves, a kookaburra etc. that all can't be out at the same time as the dog and have their own needs and demand for human interaction. There are not enough hours in the day to be able to ethically get a dog in her position.
Unless you're keeping inverts, an ant colony or something; 50 pets is too many for 1-2 people. You end up with people keeping snakes in tiny tubs or animals that are untrained and wary of human interaction at those numbers. No one here is saying 1 animal is cruel… this isn't PETA, this forum is filled with a lot of common sense in regards to numbers folks keep.
No. 572919
>>572886Finding a dog in a rescue that will be able to tolerate other pets (especially the skunk which is free ranging atm?) can be hard. I don't know much about shelters in the US but I guess they still list if the animal is fine/not fine with other animals, normally a fair amount of dogs aren't, and even then you never really know how they may react to a bird or a skunk or a ferret.
Whichever way you look at it, she's playing a dangerous game, nothing could be worse than adopting a dog that is anxious around your other animals and having to possibly return them.
(There is also some speculation that she could be pregnant so there may be that to consider also)

She also said to Tyler on twitter that she was going to be at the gynaecologist in London at the time of the pet youtuber meet up, I guess health care is free in the UK so she would have the baby there instead of the US.

When you can’t even tell that a skink is dead and you flip it around on camera and show it off. Ffs if it were alive you still shouldn’t pick it up. I hope she removed the body and realized it was dead.

From the looks of it, it won't be as big as the image you linked maybe not even quite half the size; but it will be an improvement for sure…. provided of course she doesn't keep bringing them inside for fear of wild animals.

No. 579643
>>579596Descenting a ferret is also considered cruel in the UK and also banned.
It's cruel because it's an unnecessary operation that actually can lead to an animal being without it's natural defences if it ever needed them. ie. Escaped cats need claws, like ferrets or skunks would their scent glands. In a home environment skunks should never be scared enough to spray. Neutering/spaying will have much more effect (especially in a male) on any normal body scent than descenting anyway too. There are also potential side effects from descenting; rectal prolapse is a major one.
Here's the position of the American Ferret Association on descenting:
http://www.ferret.org/read/statements.html (they strongly oppose it)
All in all I'm probably missing some things as I don't keep skunks and am not an expert. But imho it's probably a bit more like debarking a dog. There are risks involved with the surgery and it's an unnecessary operation for human convenience, little more. Will a debarked dog live an awful life? Probably not if it's care is otherwise good. Is it cruel and unnecessary? Yes.
No. 579953
>>579643when she lived in the uk she had an unscented skunk. she has never mentioned that descenting is cruel and unnecessary.
maybe this is a reach, but imo she doesnt talk about unnecessary cruelty to animals bc shes pro animal welfare rather than pro animal rights. she actively slanders animal rights campaigns online and spreads misinformation rather than remaining neutral on thr matter in the public eye, and this is no surprise after seeing how she treats animals in her care. i lurked thru her twitter and wasnt surprised in the least to see that she said ara's are against caring for pets, when that's completely untrue (as a believer in animal rights). she just does whatever benefits her and brings profits, and if thats saying "oh but its fine bc he cant spray me w smelly stuff i took that ability away from him lol", she'll say it, and thus promote/normalise it. we know she cares more about social status and fame than animal care, thats obvious by her interactions w tnd. her animal care barely even needs to be examined bc she's defending + promoting god awful husbandry. idk if the lack of milk is making me ramble but shes really driving me up the wall since that betta video

>>579953Both the betta and bearded dragon videos were awful and I don't think she should have got another pet (the skunk) in the first place. However; as she mentioned it was the law in her state. I can't blame her for descenting the skunk as it was certainly done far before she got her hands on it (either by the original owner or the petshop to enable them to sell it). I know she said she was going to mention it in her other pet care video… but honestly it might have been useful in this one too. It also you know might have been useful to never get the skunk and thus support such a cruel practice… but you know….
As for her not having a descented skunk in the UK. Was that with her work? I know she had a ferret (that obviously would have not been descented either).
>she just does whatever benefits her and brings profitsTbh All animal based businesses are run like this to one extent or the other. She works her animals two days a week, but that's still two days of stress on the animals one way or the other.

>I don’t see abuse. She's said a lot of shady shit previously, and we haven't seen a lot of her animals. Yes, someone here defended that by saying that it's a work thing and it would be a bit like suicide to reveal it (which I can agree with) but at the same time, some of the shit she comes out with is concerning - keeping Bearded Dragon in a 'temporary' and 'dark' enclosure (there's a thread discussing this somewhere), the whole breeding thing (meaning we have no clue how many snakes they have and how they're bred).

People can bitch that all this thread does is hate on pettubers, but now pettubers know they are being watched and standard of care is being set.

Chances are those fish aren't doing too well… even without the presence of another betta and the otto on its own, the amount of stress in that tank from; no cycle, high flow, no high resting places for betta etc. means that the fish likely suffered from initial illness. It's anyone's guess as to if they're still alive. It can take a lot to kill a betta… The otto, I don't have much hope for.

Just dk how well she'll handle being stuck with so many long lived reptiles and mammals in 5 years when she might want to do something else, or in 10 years when her life takes a different turn. At her age you always think something you're interested in will last forever, but then sometimes reality happens and that's my biggest concern for her animals.

She also claims to free roam her rabbits every day, as an excuse for keeping them in tiny bare minimum cages. However in her recent video 'training her rabbits' or whatever it was called, the rabbits were clearly uncomfortable, slipping all over the floor, and looked on edge all the time, not something you'd expect if they were being free roamed in that room all the time. She also has loose wires everywhere, which if you bunny proofed a room in order to free roam them every day like they need, it wouldn't be that way.
So i call bullshit on her free roaming them every day, in that room, and also no ones going to set a pen up like this for them everyday. Which is why I have such an issue with the size of her rabbit cages.

>>581398Not defending her, but it’s very hard to physically tell if a rabbit has been spayed or not just through a typical “wellness check” since all their reproductive organs are internal. Typically the only way to tell would be through an ultrasound, which isn’t typically done as part of a routine wellness check.
If rabbits are bonded at a young age, before being fixed, it’s a very easy bond. They won’t be aggressive to eachother. Young rabbits are the absolute easiest to bond, and as long as they’re kept together, this bond will last their whole life, so no, It most likely would not be aggressive towards the other rabbit.
Again, I’m not defending her, but I’ve workes with rabbits for multiple years now and there’s a lot more to them, and to the bonding process than just “hormones are hormones”
If you adopt a rabbit and are told that it has been fixed, most people will just take their word for it. Most people won’t go out of their way to get an ultrasound done just to comfirm it, so I don’t really blame her for not knowing.

How does she afford everything if she doesn’t leave her house? and there’s no way pickles has the time to actually care for all those animals if she works plus does her online store.
No. 581548
>>581541Thing is, I'm sure you could clean all your cages / change water / food. In around 4 hours a day.
However that excludes things like meal prep (having everyone on dried petstore nuggets instead), it excludes cage cleaning time which doesn't have to happen every day, but still should be taking place multiple times a week, and also importantly it excludes interaction time.
Pets need time outside their cages, they need time to bond with their owner and to get some needed mental stimulation.
So yeah..

>>581410i thought it didn't matter if rabbits were together when they were young. they still have to be separated and then bonded as normal, even if, for example, they're littermates. sorry for blog posting but…my rabbits have been together since 8weeks (except for after getting fixed) and they're still not very excited about bonding, even tho they loved each other as babies.
my problem with emma and her rabbits lies in the fact that she just doesn't seem to interact with them. if she truly does let them out to run around then i can excuse the small cages, only because she says she's getting bigger enclosures for them. but it just irks me how little she seems to know about her buns. it's like she did a quick google search about rabbits as pets and regurgitates the info to her followers. i don't follow her closely so i'm not sure how often she talks about them, it just seems like she doesn't care about them much. i could be wrong.
also, didn't she used to have four rabbits and like two died?

i think someone mentioned her once before but this girl is annoying as fuck. she's maria nicole grey. she doesn't have a job, apparently just relies on commissions for her drawings as income. i have no idea how much she makes, but i doubt it's enough to pay rent, care for herself and adequately care for all of her animals considering she has so few followers.
her "meet my pets" video was…eh. it's the only video i've watched of hers because this pissed me off. her poor bunny's feet look like this. does she just let it stand in its own piss?
she also has 37k followers on instagram but only 206 youtube subs and like 150 twitter followers. so i think she buys her followers too lmao. she stans taylor as well

she bought her rabbit one of those small two floor hutches and said it's twice as much room as he had before that. this cage is only 2 feet wide and 3.5 feet long. it has two stories, but that really means nothing to me. that doesn't give the rabbit room to move around
so basically he was living in one of those tiny petsmart rabbit cages until last week. no wonder his feet are bright yellow. his litter box probably took up half of his living space.

>>582594>>582514>>582461>>582450>>582595I'm siding with the "that's not normal" anons. My friend has rabbits and the one with white feet never looks this bad. Maybe a very slight discoloration sometimes at most, but never this obviously filthy. That's not normal and the extremely overgrown nails are also a sign of neglect. It's bad for their feet and can deform their paws/toes if left that way for too long.
>>582509>>582610The two story would be fine as a house if she actually allowed him to free roam. But with it's uneasiness, it seems unlikely. Also, if she'd just trim the poor things nails, it would slid a lot less on the flooring. At the very least she should put down a cheap rug or mat, even cardboard would be better for hi than the wood flooring.
>>582612What the hell. Does he not have any bedding in his hutch then either? The fact that he entirely stopped using his litterbox is a bad sign too.

>>582514more like:
pour urine in absorbent litter tray, briefly tap silky fur cloth against litter, then rub cloth with warm saliva and wet tongue for a prolonged time.
And then, if the rabbit's self-cleaning doesn't work, there are literal cleaning wipes and other products for the owner to wipe the feet down as necessary. A tiny, tiny amount of staining is normal or unavoidable but here is no reason for her rabbit's feet to look
that bad.

This one is so desperate for attention. Taylor shut her down yesterday via Twitter, so today she’s after Tyler’s attention. I had high hopes for Emma back when she did her own thing, but now it’s obvious she’s playing the popularity game, and losing.

>>585110I noticed it too, I think to anyone that isn't along term subscriber, it would probably appear concerning, and maybe even 'worthy' of being mentioned on here. However, as a subscriber, its evident that she goes above and beyond to care for her hamsters, its just really bad luck that she appears to have lost them close together.
It's also worth noting that she rescued most (if not all? im not sure) of them from either adoption centers or people that no longer wanted them, which sadly means their genetics and health is super unpredictable, as is their actual age. I think it may appear as though she 'only just got' little bear, but some people might be forgetting that he was in a home beforehand so he wasn't a baby when she got him.
She doesn't brush it under the rug when they pass, and theres plenty of evidence to suggest that she does everything in her power to prevent it (vet trips etc) so i dont think its really worth discussing here.

i just started finished this video. "he stopped going in his litter box idk why!'!!" maybe because half his fucking cage is his litter box and he doesn't know where to go? "he's so healthy idk why he's having these problems!!!" oh honey. come on. she also says he's not sitting in his own poop and pee because that would be cruel. how the fuck are his feet so yellow and how does he have poopy butt then? my rabbits have literally never had a problem with it and one of them is white, so it would be super obvious if his paws were piss yellow. i get that some bunnies just have trouble cleaning themselves, but she even said he doesn't go in his "litter box" (aka the top half of the cage) anymore, so i'm just wondering how it got this bad for her bun.
ill give her credit for owning up to her mistake, but i know she was warned previously (by me) about that stupid floor. and the way she apologizes is just kinda weird. she says she's a good bunny mom because her last bunny lived until it was 13 so she "knows how to care for them," but you'd think she would know after 13 years that you don't keep a rabbit on a floor like that. she also said noodles's old cage was half the size of this one, so god knows how those buns suffered

HappyTails has absolutely 0 right to bitch about other people's dogs having puppies when she BYB her dogs and killed a few of them. She also types like Trump which irks me.
Here's the article in question;
http://kfoxtv.com/news/offbeat/service-dog-gives-birth-to-litter-of-puppies-while-waiting-for-flight-at-tampa-airportIt says extremely little about the dog, how does she know the dog isn't a service dog?

Generally they aren't, but they sometimes are and can be done responsibly. I just think as someone that has to appeal to the public she is taking something she (or really anyone) knows nothing about and running with it, while being incredibly mean and hostile.
Also keep in mind this is the person who BYB mutts, killed a few, and also BYB goats, then BYB the babies of those BYB goats (possibly inbred?) as soon as they were able to reproduce (wayy too young). But someone else doing it is 'disgraceful'? She is a hypocrite, and a rather vile one at that.

Happytails is obviously taking a huge shift to doing video game streaming, where that kind of attitude is seen as funny and quirky. I feel like a LOT of pettubers do shit like this; they get their foot in the door by going into a sort of niche market ('pettube') and being 'family friendly' to get as many followers as possible, then as they start to get popular they become less PC to attract even more. TND did it by starting out as a role model for kids then posting more risky pictures. I think Happytails is doing it by this subtle switch (both content and personality-wise) to an over-saturated market of game streaming, but game streaming takes a lot less work and clothes than this pettube stuff.
>>595058I would agree if happytails didn't literally set herself up to get asked these questions for money. If you're making it your job to answer retarded questions that could be googled, at the very least you could be nice to people and turn them down. Believe me if you paid her a dollar a post like she wants she wouldn't give a rat's ass how stupid you were.

Has anyone seen this!? I don’t even know what to say….
1. She feeds her pig literal POTATO CHIPS
2. Doesn’t fix her rabbits, allows them to continuously have babies
3. Doesn’t feed her rabbits hay, instead just gives them a SHIT LOAD of pellets
4. Keep the rabbits outdoors in gross, dirty cages
5. Now I’m not 100% sure about rat care, but she fed her rats nothing but veggies and ham??
6. Doesn’t measure her dogs food, just lets them free feed
7. Knows absolutely nothing about bonding rabbits, just throws them together and hopes for the best
8. Keeps her leopard geckos on loose substrate
9. Feeds her leopard geckos nothing but mealworms, no variety, no calcium, no vitamins
10. Had a baby hamster that she irresponsibly bred herself, ham “randomly die” doesn’t seem to care
11. Only gives her hamsters seed mix (Higgins vita garden) so the protein is too low.
12. Claims that Purina cat food is “very healthy”

I also thought maybe she was just going to include animals she considers just 'hers' and thats why they're not all included in the video, but some of the animals she included were Dannys, or shared with Danny, so that theory doesnt make sense

Aside from the privacy which she’s said from as far back as I’ve been watching (which I get because of the kids i think she said she has) its good not to make it normal on YT and encourage people to buy so many pets. I liked the all my pets even if I wanted to see more of the animals. Her subs have been asking forever and she’s giving them what they want in the way she said she was comfortable to do it. And in her description - attached - she said she’s going to show others in others ways just not maybe focusing on them as pets.
Ps I’m not a stan but her presenting style doesn’t bother me like it’s patronizing. She was a kids educator before youtube. What do u expect? Also agree above. That’s not a rat.

She has step kids which no other pet Youtuber has. You know what that means? That means she’s a stepmom and their BIO mom probably doesn’t want to allow the kids or environment to be seen online. It’s probably part of the original separation/divorce court order. I don’t think Em’s wrong to hide her home and stepkids from the world. So many YouTubers have had problems with stalkers and people coming to their home and that’s probably even more stressful when you have kids. I get you’re frustrated and want to see more but I can tell you’re probably not at the age where you think about the legalities of being a YOutuber with a family.

>>599903I don’t think we should really be “glorifying” her. She makes some good points, but she doesn’t seem any better than the rest of them. She makes the same videos as them (all my pets videos for example) and she seems to have some
problematic care.
She mentions in the video that she keeps 1 male mouse, and 1 female mice together, and feeds the babies off. Now that’s fine, if you want to breed your own feeders, but do it correctly. Keeping a male and female together constantly, is so stressful for the poor female. That male is going to constantly be trying to breed her. If you want to breed them, then keep them separate except when feeding. She also says that half of her animals were impulse buys.
No. 600039
>>599940In all honesty, there will never be a petuber that is amazing and has the correct care (animal care is constantly changing, difference of opinions etc etc).
We can basically rank them on a '
problematic' scale. In most cases smaller petubers seem to be less
problematic (though idk about her).
Also, at least she admits they were impulsively bought? Most other people wouldn't.
No. 600054
>>599940The mouse thing REALLY bothered me. It’s common sense not to have a 1:1 male/female ratio. If you’re breeding mice then you should be keeping the males and females separate, except during breeding so that the females aren’t constantly being bred/chased/harassed by the males. And when you do breed them, you need to have a 1:2 male/female ratio, so that the male doesn’t take out all his aggression and breeding behaviour on one female.
She also said that she “sometimes” feeds the babies off. That’s fine… but what the hell is she doing with the rest of them? She said her sand boa only eats live pinkies, and considering mice are only pinkies for like 3 days, she would only get the chance to feed 1 off before they grow too large. What is she doing with them then? She’s not freezing them, because her snake will only eat live. So I’m assuming she’s selling them or something.
She said her mice were impulse buys, and it really shows considering she doesn’t even know to not keep a 1:1 ratio.
She goes on and on about how petubers should be holding themselves to a higher standard, which I agree with. But she doesn’t even take her own advice.

- Can't breath but still put the turle on a veggie soup ( not so sure about this practice, so correct me if I'm wrong on this)
Even in the video I got stressed out to see there is always an animal screwing around.
She is the perfect example of a hoarder.

Not to mention this. Does she not understand that just because you've had two or more incompatible animals together for years, that it's still not a good idea to still have them be together? This is literally what she did with her baby alligator snapping turtle and her baby common snapping turtle(which she has because she "wants to make them tame and friendly")

Old milk, but… Even amateurs know not to let reptiles close to guinea pigs like this. Never heard of salmonella I guess
>>603337As much as I dislike many pettubers, I haven't found one that's nearly as rude to their viewers/followers on a regular basis like her. At least most others only get snarky or sarcastic after a while. HT seems to jump on even her fans with straight bitchiness.

Sage for more old milk, just figured it should be archived here for later. HT doesn't seem like the kind of person to delete her own photos or comments but rather other's.
On another note, does someone want to update HappyTail's current animal count? God knows she isn't keeping track, and I think some animals have died and some have been introduced since the last thread.
>>603414Her husband was playing with her on stream. I watched a bit of it, not really pettube related, but she basically needed him to hold her hand so she could progress in the game. She kept getting stuck. And he also had to keep coaxing her to talk, like it was a bad date. She also didn't acknowledge her viewers at all from what I've seen, her husband had to keep engaging the live viewers despite the fact that they are literally only there for HT. It was all around cringey for someone who wants to make a big move to video game streaming. I sort of hope it works out though, because maybe she'll get rid of some animals or just let them die off and not replace them.

>>603357Her guinea pig care is questionable as well since she said in her guinea pig care video that vegetables could be used as treats when every guinea pig should be given a cup of fresh produce each day as they can’t produce their own vitamin C.
Not only that, her cage is only 22” x 46” — judging off of her video building the cage she uses. The suggested cage size for two guinea pigs is 30” x 36”, yes, but most people advise 30” x 50”. She doesn’t ewallt seem to care about her guinea pigs

>>603976She crams her exotics all in one room, has her birds flying around while snakes are out, the room is generally filthy, she paints her nails around birds, plus many other animals of hers interact/cross species when they shouldn’t. She neglects more than a few of her animals, her diets aren’t based off of any sort of science they’re based off of her own preference. In fact, most of her care is based off of her own preference and tends to blatantly ignore general care and safety guidelines. She’s rude af to anyone and everyone who remotely disagrees with her, she has owned a horse for apparently most of its life and it acts like it doesn’t know her at all, she allows most of the “wild” animals to congregate together and breed freely. She backyard breeds her dogs, many of whom got sick, one even died. I can’t even begin to think of an animal of hers that is taken care of the way it is supposed to be.
Comparing Taylor and Happy Tails is comparing apples to oranges, but if you read Taylor’s thread it is FAR more about her personally and her relationship. Happy Tails you could go on for days specifically about how horrendous her animal care is and what a bitch she is.

HappyTails is keeping two male mice together. Maybe I should send her a picture of my male mouse that was housed with another male and lost a nose and paw because of it.

>>604754Nobody really gives a shit about someone making typos Jesus Christ. This is why people attack this thread for being nit picky. Pretty sure we should probably be more focused on the fact that happy tails is literally killing her mice, and promoting it.
Happy tails “fans” are so young and naive. This scares the shit out of me that she’s saying male mice need a friend. Her viewers are going to see this, and believe that males should be kept with others.
Happy tails needs to take her head out of her ass and just fucking admit it when she fucks up. But instead she’ll just go on pretending she’s some sort of know it all, expert, and continue to be rude to anyone who disagrees with her. She’s so dangerous, and should not have a platform at all. It’s honestly terrifying that she does given the information she spreads.
No. 604783
>>604588HT is actually fairly reserved. Unlike Taylor, she actually thinks about what she says and she doesn't over-share. So I have no idea the males involved in the breeding. She said one breeding was an accident involving a friend's goat (how in the fuck did that happen?). All I know with the goats is that they are seemingly being bred often, and some are being bred quite literally as soon as they come into heat. Her one goat was a juvenile itself when it gave birth.
I got bored one night while watching documentaries and made a spreadsheet of her animals off of a previous post and a video she made of all her pets. I'd post it but I think it may be too much autism for this thread.

If anyone has suggestions, questions or edits let me know.

>>605157Male mice will often work together only when they came from the same established 'group' (pet store wise, and I think that's to do with them being siblings anyway).
Introducing two male mice isn't as easy as ''they haven't killed each other (:''
People also say that introducing two guinea pigs (not only males) can go wrong, especially if they show aggression to the point of worry. At that point it's recommended to keep them near each other so they still have some social bond. That probably goes for most social animals tho lmao.
No. 605365
>>605361Male mice can work, chances are higher when they're siblings, and selectively bred to not be aggressive. But this mouse was just running free in the store for like a week, and then she chose to just pick it a random mouse from the bunch that it had no longer been living with, and has no idea its relation.
Another issue I have is the whole 'rescue story' of the mouse running round the store, being caught, and then them buying it. You're not 'saving' the mouse and doing a good thing if in turn you're buying into the pet store industry / feeder industry
