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:
Happy Tails aka Megan Arriola
- 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".
- Breeds a potentially harmful gene (merle) into her dogs
- 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.
- Charges an OUTRAGEOUS amount for 'consultation' when she has 0 credentials and can't even say she does her own research for her own animals.
- Extremely rude to supporters and shuts down every question that she can with a snarky remark.
- Recently put two male mice together, ignores advise and says they'll be fine.

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.
- Has now bought a new Gecko.

- 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.
- Recently got kicked out of playlist for bringing in a baby gator and snake to scare/prank people with.

- 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.

- Hoards animals worse than some of the above.
- Was gifted two puppies and kept them even though she didn't have the space for them.
- House is literally crammed with animals.
- Killed all her fish once when she flea bombed her house to get rid of the fleas her roaming cats had brought in.
- Lets her turtles breed, found a nest they'd made unsupervised outside with most of the eggs being eaten by ants.
- Recently had one of her tortoises die. Was supposed to nebulize the tortoise every 8 hours, instead said she went to sleep for 21 and 'someone else did it'.
- Let her duck eat Styrofoam while yelling at it from across the room.
- Keeps her turtles in tiny cages.
- Keeps most of her animals in filthy conditions.

>>605834Not defending them or Taylor or anything, because the monitor situation was fucked and I wish more people talked about it, but it’s possible they talked to her privately. They said some people tried to talk to Meghan, but she doesn’t fucking listen so going public about it was the only way to bring attention to the issue. I’m hoping that’s what happened, but honestly probably didn’t.
I feel like the mouse situation is getting more attention because 1. Everyone already knows happytails is the biggest idiot in the community, and 2. It’s common sense to not keep 2 males together. Everyone knows that, but not everyone knows about monitors and their care
If the monitor situation happened to Meghan and not Taylor, we all know Meghan would just be going around continuing to say that it’s a black throat monitor because she’s the “expert” and she knows better than everyone else. Which is honestly hilarious to think about if you ask me

Sure fly your bird, but do it safely, loosing sight of them for that period of time is not safe. She's constantly losing her bird, has no regular recall (has only just started using that whistle). She flies her birds in dangerous places, she's had them loose in the car before /while/ she was driving. She's a terrible example of an owner.
Worst of all, recently she seems to enjoy sending Hope off to harass the native birds. There's one video where a flock is roosting (dusk) and she sends Hope off to go fly into them all and make them fly (en mass) away. She constantly makes jokes when Hope flies off to attack the native birds. I wouldn't be surprised if Hope harassed the Hawk first making it attack, because that's what it's been conditioned to do. A large bird like a Macaw isn't usually a target for a bird of prey that's roughly the same size, too much risk there for the predator.
With all her screaming and harassing the native wildlife, I'd be so pissed if I lived near that park.

Anyone have a lot of farm/game birds that can comment on this? I've only ever had maybe 2 dozen chickens & geese at a time and in an enclosed area. But it seems to me that for animals that she even says are free roaming, that is a fuck ton of feathers around in a small area. I'm just confused because if it was a sheer amount of bird issue, wouldn't the area be all dirt like in her videos from constant treading? I can't imagine it's from a fight because larger feathers & maybe blood would be present. I'm just puzzled at the amount of down in her outdoor pics. It just looks like cattails exploded everywhere

I honest to god don't understand how she does it. She plays videogames 2 hours a night roughly every day or every other day that she streams. She either was awake and up with her animals or screwing around on the computer in the early (2am) morning posting shit on instagram. She supposedly has a job, her husband has a full time job. She literally has 200 animals, 1/4 of which requires a substantial amount of daily interaction. I've worked on a rehab facility before; All the animals got as little interaction as possible because they were wild. It would still take me from morning to sunset to clean half the enclosures and feed, and there were only about 20ish enclosures to worry about. It is physically impossible for her to be giving her animals the bare minimum care, let alone keep an eye on them to make sure they are acting alright and are healthy
Sorry for the rant, it's just that I've unironically seen people with far fewer animals be busted for hoarding and she's actually glamorizing this behavior to children.

>>607679In normal circumstances a lone very old rat can be unavoidable. Many people will not be willing to rehome their 2.5-3 year old animal that they care about and only likely has a few months left. Many people will also not want to get more rats even if they have done in the past.
That said…
A lone rat is a lot more work to take care of, they need constant attention, a heat mat/heat pad (old rats lose heat quickly as they tend to have less fat), they might need assistance keeping themselves clean (not only fur, but making sure they don't get UTI's if they're male by removing plugs etc), they also will need much more mental stimulation in and outside of the cage to stop them from getting depressed.
There are so many more reasons I've not listed too, which is why younger rats should never be kept alone (or even older, if you are prepared to take care of more rats in the future).
However I doubt Meghan is doing even 1% of the required care for her lone older rat. Rats are great pets, but they're time consuming, more so when you only have one.
She has so many animals, there's just no way.

>>607679>>607687The one time you want her to get more pets and she doesn't lol. She re-homed her elderly lone ferret because it was too much work, so why isn't she doing that with her remaining rat? I'd argue that lone rats need even more attention than lone ferrets, and it's obvious she isn't giving the rat enough attention or else she'd be posting it constantly.
No. 607709
>>607696Yeah, it's clear she has little to no attachment to her animals. While, as listed above, I can understand that a solo old rat is a fact of life for a lot of people; she should 100% rehome hers. There's no way she puts in the work a solo rat involves.
Also, just realised that's her current rat in that photo and not the one that passed away. Stella looks sick. Rats fur shouldn't be fluffed up like that; they often fluff themselves up when they're not feeling well.

Rats especially might not have the protection other animals do because they're classed as 'vermin' but they're highly intelligent animals that benefit massively from registered breeders trying to reduce the instances of cancer, mammary tumours, URIs, high white, and other genetic defects present in their lines due to the initial bottleneck they went through when being domesticated. BYB undoes all of those efforts and you end up with rats that have poor lifespan expectancies and suffer from complications and illnesses over the years.

I also don't believe her claims about working with a breeder, it was only claimed after folks pointed it out here. Didn't she also get those rats from a pet shop, not another breeder, so she can't have known their genetic history before breeding them (something that is very important). One of her rats was born with one testicle for Christ's sake… but yeah, this discussion has already been hashed out previously.
I'm glad her baby rats got vet care, but really that's a very low bar to meet, they shouldn't have been sick in the first place, babies should never get so sick with URI's weeks into their lives unless something is wrong with their care or breeding.

>>608229Agreed, many people who find injured animals have no experience and nowhere to turn other than google. So these places do end up taking in wild animals, and of course it is legal (at least as far as I am aware in the US, it is in my country), to rehabilitate (certain) wild animals so long as you don't plan to keep them.
All of that says nothing for their experience though… anyone can start a NFP, if you're a vet, you're going to have some good knowledge and be able to help animals folks bring you… if you're Joe Blogs from down the road, you can do your best but you're little better than the person who found the animal in the first place.

Also Maddie doesn't appear to have fostered any more animals since the squirrels… which is good at least… baby animals might be good for views, but they're so fragile, they need to be placed with people with real experience and real time in their field… not a pettuber who wants attention and to lord them around on camera.

I can look past breeding mutts, having less than stellar lines, fuck I'll even look past breeding harmful genes if they were attempting to breed a better dog and some things slipped through their sight. But when it comes down to it, HT's reasons for breeding is selfish; literally just to create more animals. To me, that is the definition of BYB
Not saying the others are any better, I think they are shit too and are pretty damn childish. But HT is not under any circumstances what I would call a reputable breeder.

>>608662Breeding outside of a breed is only healthy if you know their lines. The 'mutts are healthy' meme is only true if both parents were healthy. If you have two mutts that both carry the same genetic issues, you're at the same place you were with poorly bred purebred dogs. Considering her dogs were all corgis that share many of the same genetic health problems and she doesn't share what lines they come from it's not a guarantee that they will be healthier. We are taking it at face value that she got her dogs health tested; I only ever heard her say 'health check' and 'hips checked' from her blog, but there is more to genetic health of corgis than their hips. It also doesn't help if she doesn't know the lines of both grandparents, because although her dogs may not have the phenotype they may still carry harmful genes that can pass on to the offspring. A single health check once in an animal's life also isn't a guarantee that they will always be healthy; they may be healthy now but ideally you should be doing yearly health checks on things like structure, hearing, eyesight etc because the vast majority of poorly bred dogs don't show genetic health issues before at least 3-5 years of age. She already had her dogs get parvo, one which died from it, after criticizing vets for recommending people socialize puppies due to parvo, she doesn't even follow her own advice which is beyond hypocritical. She also bred an objectively dangerous gene because it looked pretty, which is a super shitty thing to do to any dog. Don't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about, I know more about genetics than you think.
If meg did any amount of research she would have picked up on these things. But she didn't.

You know I think it's pretty funny that people complain we only talk about certain pettubers.

It's almost taken for granted that that shit's wrong… same as the Saudi princes and their pet cheetahs.
There are also a lot of animal channels on youtube.. not all of them fall under pettube. Pettube usually refers to those keeping lots of animals at /home/. So BYB operations like Brian only sometimes are talked about, again because they're universally considered awful. It's like saying the sky is blue… yeah, we fucking know.

The minimum for 2 dwarfs is 4x4, but then the minimum for a Flemish giant is like 4x8. So while Emma is just meeting the bare minimum, Tyler’s cage is only half the minimum. Emma’s cages also have toys and hides in them, last time Tyler shoed his cage it was just a litter box, and one toy.
Not trying to defend Emma here, but I don’t understand why she gets crap for it, and Tyler gets none even though his cage is far below the minimum

If TND slowed down on posting shit to social media her thread would slow down too, people won't have shit to talk about and the thread would die. HT has been a retard on social media lately, therefore she's getting the most attention here. It's not a difficult concept to follow. Obv the people here bitching that it's only females have only read the HT part of this particular thread, because even earlier on ITT Tyler was getting shat on. Really makes me think where this influx of users came from as soon as HT became the center of attention.

How do you direct mods to a whole thread an not a single post? Because mods need to come and prune a lot of this thread.
If y'all are pissed no one is talking about x, y and z, then post pictures and videos and explain what they are doing is wrong. I was pissed no one was talking about HT so I started posting milk from her insta when she did dumb shit. I must post like 80% of her instagram pics. Guess what happened? People started realizing how awful she is. If you want people to go after someone else, you have to keep posting dumb shit they do and say. A single screencap of their instagram profile or mentioning something they did weeks ago once isn't going to get the ball rolling.
Anyway, I think the cockateil is over the guinea pig cage in this picture but I'm not sure because her guinea pigs are kept in one of those store bought cages and used as a table in the middle of the room, anyone know whose cage this may be?

I have nano (fresh water) tanks and they're also a huge pain to keep balanced (planted at that size imho is a must to help), swings in water quality are huge. Bigger tanks guard against this.
5g for a Betta is also a minimum imho. They really do better in 8-10g. Their habitats in the wild go on for miles sometimes. Males establish a 1 metre sq patch as their own when looking to breed. It's a myth that they're happy in small spaces. Even long fin varieties benefit from larger tanks, improving their muscles and strength and as such making them live a healthier and longer life.

Sage for no new milk, this is old as sin. Just found out though that exactly what I was worried about happening, happened. One of her merle coris grew into a hidden merle. For anyone interested, it means that even a responsible breeder not interested in breeding a merle or two merles may mistakenly breed the dog to get double merles. Double merles are commonly born blind and/or deaf, or even stillborn.

Don't just stay in an echo chamber, read things that you may not know or disagree with but with an open mind to understand why people come here and complain.

If you cant research your animals before getting them then don't get them. It's unlikely you have the interest in that animal and therefore the commitment to care for them for 2-20 years.

It's also ironic that pettuber said watch and never reply. There're always fucking on here replying.. stanning for themselves, bitching about other pettubers. They're all a bunch of backstabbers that don't really give a shit about animals, they just want to use them to get views/famous.

Not to drag the mouse thing out still but happytails is still being a dumb bitch.
You'd think for a 'expert' she would stop comparing mice to other animals, especially rats, when rats live in colonies of mixed sex in the wild, and mice live and defend their territories against other males. I'm embarrassed for her
No. 610779
>>610774Lol what… male rats can and do live in the wild together. Unaltered males in captivity can (but not always) become hormonal and fight more; but in the wild they can actually get away from each other too, so fights aren't common unless they're forced to fight for space/resources (thanks to humans).
Mice are not rats… not even close.
No. 610782
>>610779More info:
At low densities, a male rat monopolizes a burrow of females. He defends a territory, keeping other males away from the burrow and the surrounding area, and he mates only with the females of his group. One male mating with multiple females is a polygynous mating system. At low densities, Norway rats are therefore territorial and polygynous.
At high densities, males can no longer defend a burrow against intruders. There are simply too many intruders. At high densities, the social system becomes despotic, with one male becoming socially dominant while others become socially subordinate. Males no longer defend female burrows. Instead, when a female comes into heat a group of males rushes her and mates with her sequentially, with little or no competition between themselves. Males may mate with multiple estrus females this way, and females mate with multiple males. This mating system is polygynandrous. At high densities, Norway rats are therefore despotic and polygynandrous.
Wild rat aggressive behavior is similar to that seen in domestic rats, with fighting, chasing, biting, and boxing. However, wild rats don't display some agonistic behaviors seen in domestic rats, such as the sidling posture and the belly-up posture. The difference is probably due to the restricted environment of the cage, which leads to prolonged, escalated conflicts and the necessity of protracted self-defense in close quarters.

>>610779As someone who's owned male rats, she's a moron. Even rats are at risk of becoming extremely hormonal after puberty hits and becoming aggressive to the point that they need neutered or put down.
And male rats can't just be tossed in together. It's very dangerous to just put two rats together if they aren't young siblings.
Rats that are being introduced need at LEAST a week of heavily supervised interaction before they can be housed together. And the housing together for the first day needs to be constantly supervised as it's the most likely place for things to go wrong.
Male mice are even MORE aggressive toward one another and she just plays fast and loose about it.
But sure, HT, rats and mice are exactly the same and always get along with each other.
No. 610804
>>610796Don't want to give away who I am, but I literally run one of the worlds largest online rat forums, I've kept rats for decades and I disagree that rats can become hormonal enough to be put down /ever/.
Imho it's exceedingly rare that a male rat even needs to be isolated for good. And if hormonal aggression does appear, it's almost always greatly reduced by neutering.
Some rats need more experienced hands than others in this, but I've taken in more than a few 'lone male rats' over the years that were supposedly hormonal and aggressive and could not be kept with other rats. None of them ended up living alone, none of them were really aggressive, most were just afraid and hadn't been socialised well.
However, you're spot on with not tossing them in together off the get go (quarantine and same litter males aside) even females need slow introductions over a period of /weeks/, most male introductions (especially unaltered males) should take at least a month. Setbacks mean starting from scratch, it could mean injuries.. it's not something you rush.
Mice are completely different than rats though; you just can't compare the two. I wouldn't dream of doing what HT is doing with her mice. Not in a million years.

Megacolon is a horrible condition that can be painful; touching a rat with it can cause them even more discomfort hence lashing out. Sorry for your loss. This is why I hate BYB operations and chain store supply with rats; so much unnecessary suffering of then both owners and pets.
Like with most animals, there's always a /reason/ for aggression. Even people who think their animals are lashing out for no reason… no, there is a reason, you're just ignoring or ignorant of it.

Also just because something is rare in captivity, isn't an excuse for breeding it.
In regards to Cataleah, she breeds a gecko that is openly hostile towards her (bad temperament), doesn't have a plan for the babies they produce, just wants the babies because she thinks they'll be pretty, keeps potentially WC animals despite saying she's against it, wants to breed these individuals despite not knowing their ages or background, breeds crested geckos despite the market already being over saturated with them (again doesn't know the history of all), wants to breed gargoyle geckos again without knowing their background/history or age… so yeah, that's bad breeding.

I'm still waiting for a good example of ethical breeding from a pettuber. And no not unless Danny and Em have a /lot/ of friends who want snakes, not all those babies have plan. The fact that they keep it so quiet is also suspect, a lot of what they hide is suspect because it often turns out to be bad… look at Bad Idea's old enclosure… her /new/ enclosure.

>>611918>>611901That cage is actually separated into 2 cages housing 3 chinchillas, pic related. The top part houses two and the bottom part houses one. They don't really have hides unless you count the area under the shelf, which I generally don't because the area is generally too open space.

>>612105They do have some lava ledges, but definitely no hides. Chinchillas spend their lives in caves in the Andes mountains. They NEED hides. They will climb quite a bit, but 90% of their life is spent hiding.
A single Critter Nation is suitable for 2 chins, so 3 in a double is still fine, size wise.
I've also constantly wondered if she gives her chinchillas fresh fruits or veggies which is 100% not ok.

Okay I'm not sure where to post this but I recently found this video and I really think it needs exposure.
https://youtu.be/W00RepvErX8?t=1m12sAt 1:12 in the video, a rat which was kept in a box was tossed at an elderly lady as a prank. Almost everyone in the room immediately started to scream and run, including the poor rat.
The part which concerns me the most begins at 3:36 (
https://youtu.be/W00RepvErX8&t=3m36s), when Alicia states that her grandmother fell in love with the rat, how the grandmother was an animal activist, that "everyone" wanted to keep the pet rat, how they had a cage and everything, but ultimately, after thinking really HARD for 2 hours, decided to leave the animal outside to die.
>at the end of the day, we decided to let the rat out into the wild so that like the rat can have a little bit of free time or whatever instead of going back to the shop to get eaten by a snakeThey also pinned this post in the comments after multiple people posted about how worried and disgusted they were:
>For those complaining about us letting the rat go. It was a feeder rat that was being sold to he fed to someone’s pet snake. Meaning they were going to to take the rat straight to a cage, put it in and let the snake devour it. We let the rat go to at least feel freedom and not be caged up any longer.Basically admitting that they bought an animal for the sole purpose of pranking their grandmother. AKA sentenced an animal to death after they used it to gain views and money…

What is wrong with them… feeder rats are often bought as pets too. Additionally that's no reason for a cruel prolonged death outside by starvation or the cold or even further predation.

The fact that they're a brand new channel that has been growing so fast worries me. This can easily be deleted, swept under the rug and forgotten until it happens again. I don't want the next animal they kill to be worth a million views and actual money to them. If only YT would remove these evil types of people, who just are capable of thoughtlessly endangering creatures like this.
I wonder what danger they have and will put their child in, just for the chance of one of their videos going viral.

Is this actionable… like could the owner sue her for implying his dog is vicious?
Hell more importantly, the video with the children (whose images she used in the thumbnail) that she accused of trying to kidnap Hope? Especially as in the video they all said they wanted to return the bird to it's owner and they thought it was lost.
She's slandering these people and posting their unblurred images online for her audience to find.

No. 612911
>>612879As far as US animal laws go, as long as the park allowed dogs I don't believe the dog owner could get sued for any damages. It's her bird that is free-roaming (not contained via cage, leash, etc), the dog is on a leash and contained. In fact, the dog owner could potentially sue her for vet costs if the bird managed to damage the dog, even if it were by impaction from eating it. Dogs are almost never labeled as dangerous/vicious for attacking pets, especially not for a single incident. It's generally reserved for people and livestock, sometimes dogs if enough dogs died.
As far as suing for the dog potentially being dangerous… Completely out of the question in America. Americans may be sue happy but they still have freedoms. That dog did literally nothing but sit there and bark. Like I said earlier, even if the dog did eat the bird, she couldn't do shit about it because her bird was not 'contained' while that dog was.
No. 612918

>>612629Seeing this makes me so nervous. I don't have birds but I have large lizards and I regularly take them to animal friendly parks but I take off as soon as dogs come around.
Dogs don't mean to be "agressive". They see them as prey, like a cat would a mouse. You'd probably never take a pet mouse out around a cat would you? She is so irresponsible with that bird. Does anyone know the exact rules surrounding animals in that park? I know all dog parks in my area are only dogs allowed, but the rest allow all animals except for horses (there's actually signs that say this lol). I don't know if those are regular rules for a dog park but if they are, she shouldn't be allowed her bird in a dog park should she?
Also do all of these people realize she's filming them for YouTube? I wouldn't be too fond of my children being put on YouTube if I didn't realize that was what was happening
No. 613204
>>612617Literally all of her videos are click baited and she always manages to put her bird into danger in all of the videos. She actually pisses me off so much can you have people commenting that they're actually concerned and are following the channel only because some disaster is bound to happen.
This video in particular seems to riled a lot of people up.
God she really needs to be called out by someone.
>>612626Fuck me wtf. They could have at least sold the rat to someone or had a home lined up for them, or even take it to a rescue shelter.
>>612879They could probably do something about them being posted online without permission? I can't imagine every person in the vlogs knows that they're being put online and basically bitched about.
>>613115I saw a lot of comments about the owners being irresponsible for not stopping their dog performing a natural behaviour. I mean you can't exactly train a dog to not react to a stimuli they've never seen before, and if the dog was to be attacked or scared by the animal then you have lasting effects and that alone can be horrible to fix especially if it transfers to other larger birds like crows.
She honestly should consider the other owners in the park. I know for a fact that a lot of dog owners take 'sections' of parks as far away from each other so their dogs can still explore but they don't have to be worried in case the dog is aggressive or is scared of other dogs. It's literally one of the polite things to do, like crossing a road if you see the other dog is getting a bit iffy about your dog. Instead she continues standing close to these animals and pretending like there's an issue when she can very easily just step away.

He has a 100 reptiles in a small room and is breeding more?
Any word on how safe bricks are at keeping snakes from escaping? Did some googling and the general idea is that it only works for so long and you need clamps/locks.
He seems to be fine with upgrading enclosures so that's nice.
He handles a lot of his animals in the video and I doubt he cleans his hands before each of them.

>>613788a lot of leopard gecko owners and forums prefer/suggest paper towel due to the risk of impaction from loose substrate, like play sand and eco-earth. theres a much greater chance of them ingesting loose substrate over time resulting in gradual impaction than them eating an entire paper towel.
of course if your husbandry is on point then your gecko should be able to pass any small amounts of ingested substrate. but paper towel avoids the risk altogether, as well as helps keeping the habitat clean.

At least he's not keeping them if he's incapable of caring for them like what he's doing with the baby sharks.
He's been getting so many fish that I forget which ones he has. Where are his clownfish? the shelldwellers? that little nano tank? The second flowerhorn?

As far as the clownfish, you know I'd forgotten about those. The second flowerhorn (Beans) was given away to a subscriber who apparently fell in love with him. The female flowerhorn is a new fish entirely.

Hope is also under 2 years old… I didn't realise he was so young, but this woman seems to have amassed her birds in a very short period of time (all the birds are young).

Em, if you're reading this please realise that your pet care is one thing but at this point you're looking to be a pretty shit person. You guys are lucky the majority of your YouTube followers are young kids that don't follow you on Twitter or are willing to defend you to death

It would just make me laugh so much if they were all on here shit talking each other, what a mess.

Like if a comment on here is full of typos, 100 % its probably Emma
And most people type the same way they use language, Lori is southern, and posts including 'y'all' is such a dead giveaway.
It doesn't take an expert to notice when they've arrived though, their attempts at diverting the attention or obvious white knighting for each other on here is so pathetic.

>>621487Not trying to WK, because I still think it’s messed up that Taylor brought her animals to a party. But at the time, a lot of the petubers who we have now, weren’t really around to call her out. Emzotic only started her channel a year ago (so I’m
assuming she had a small following, as well as tyler. They could’ve still said something, but for the others like maddie, Emma, Lori, pickles etc, I don’t even know if they had channels at the time. Again I still think it’s messed up that she did it, and it pisses me off. But at least she realized it was bad and said she wouldn’t do it again, where as Brian just defended himself by trying to say “they weren’t his animals, he was just there” which is a pathetic excuse. So yeah while I think TND was wrong, Brian is far worse
No. 621559
>>621545Taylor defends bringing her snake to the party every time its brought up to her. She justifies it by saying the sides were blackout and it had a heater. She also still has her videos up of her having her animals at vidcon, so she obviously doesn't feel bad leaving it as an example and profiting off it. She's really not that remorseful, continues to make shitty videos promoting bad pet care.
Anyways, the point isn't who's the worst pettuber. The point is that the pettube mean girls are petty and gang up on pettubers not in their clique/can't use to gain more followers.
No. 621592
>>621567its not about who they're ganging up on, its about who they are NOT calling out. aka TND, emzotic over the betta/bearded dragon/etc fiasco, emma for her super small bunny cages/not properly bonding them, maddie for byb rats and hoarding animals, tyler for his betta disappearance.

No. 621621
>>621610That’s not what I’m comfused about. I’m comfused about weather or not she downgraded them to something smaller. There’s nothing about that on past threads, her twitter or YouTube as far as I can see.
3x4/12 sq feet is generally the accepted minimum for small-medium sized rabbits, so if hers are in a 4x4 pen it’s a decent size. Rabbits are the only animals I’ve ever owned, and I’m pretty involved in the rabbit community. 2x4 used to be the accepted minimum, although most people are now moving towards 3x4
I was just asking if she downgraded them since they were referred to as super small, and I can’t find anything that shows she did.
If she did downgrade them, than that’s super shitty, but if she didn’t then it’s acceptable

>>622638Moths only live like 5-10 days so I’m sure it died already. She showed the reef tank but it had no fish. Didn’t she say her previous one overheated or something? I’m not sure about the blue shrimp though. From what I’ve seen from her twitter, she got the BTS and it was pregnant, gave birth in her care so she sold the babies, so I’d assume that last skink she had got sold, although who knows. I thought she was keeping it. But It’s also fairly normal for skinks to hiss while they’re in the enclosure, some will be really tame, some won’t be tame at all, and some will be tame out of the cage, but defensive when in their cage. Not trying to WK at all. I’m also wondering about the shrimp, and kinda about the BTS, just responding to the rest.

I think what really happened is Tyler was trying to leech off TND, and volunteered himself to help her film. By the way TND acts around Tyler, is obvious she does not giving a shit about him or knows he's just using her for subscribers.

Inviting Taylor to their "PetFest" should be almost considered a scam kek
This is a photo of their meet and greet of Playlist
Idk if they were only Emzotic and Tyler's (and maybe Maddie) fans or if they were waiting for something else.
Even tho,i don't think a lot of people will show up. Taylor gave a bad impression the last time she didn't went so I don't think they will count with a big portion of her fans.
Also they are boring has fuck, without their pets,they cant hide how personality less they are.
No. 623392
>>623390Yeah I'm very curious about why someone would travel to see a pet YouTuber with no pets. They're not that knowledgable, not interesting, and seem to have pretty bland personalities for the most part. Also some are just carbon copies of others. Even if I
loved watching their videos I wouldn't travel more than an hour to see them, and I'd really need to enjoy their content to do that, plus maybe meet some of their animals. Seems rather pointless to meet a petless pet youtuber

Monetization and ads do not mean that you, the end user, is paying any sort of fee to access this specific content. It is free content until such time as you have to pay a subscription fee to access it, and no, paying for internet is not the same as a subscription fee. You have to pay for Netflix on top of your internet, for example.
Creators should be paid for the content they create.

>>623216My bad just from the way the snippet in her latest videos it looked like they were all out together which was why I was so confused by why I could still only see one of the tiny pens. Regardless, they’re way too small, especially considering how long it’s taking. She might just have to accept they’ll never be bonded, sometimes it just happens. Anyone know the sexes of the rabbits and whether they’re neutered? Coz that can make a big difference.

Emzotic is IN THE HOUSE!!
(Can you feel the lactation?)
As I will likely get put out to pasture for crashing the party and being a naughty moo moo, I’ll try and make this post as comprehensive as I can.
First of all, I know this thread is divided into three categories.
1) People with genuine concerns about pet care standards.
2) Pet YouTubers posting anonymously.
3) People with overactive imaginations, sharp tongues and dreams of becoming pet detectives, with an unhealthy passion for recreational MILK. MMMIILLLKKKK!!!!
For those with genuine concerns about pet care on the animal side of YouTube. We (collectively) hear you. I appreciate you and acknowledge you sincerely. You’ve pointed out valid issues in my videos which I have either removed so as not to profit from, or have apologised for.
No amount of experience, age or training makes us flawless, but I am truly appreciative that you’ve shared your concerns here in the hopes that I would see. I see you. I need you.
With regards to my privacy, I will never be able to give you what I want. I will always protect my home and family from people (cyber and real world) who would seek to disrupt our haven. I am sorry that I cannot satisfy your interest, but my first and most firm loyalty is to my home. You can think whatever you like about this, and all I can say is that you will understand when you have mancubs of your own to think about.
To the PetTubers who post here anonymously to support each other - Good for you. You know we have a great community in private even if we ARE Tyler’s Harem. Even if Maddie is irrelevant and Pickles IS convenient.
snicker.
To the PetTubers who pick fights with each other anonymously or try to create drama - grow up and go edit a video. You know you’re just procrastinating!
To those with overactive imaginations and a need for milk - I’ve got some right here for you, and it’s udderly delicious, so lap it up, farmhands.
Animal YouTubers are real people. We’re flawed. We’re also a billon times more courageous than you because we don’t hide in the valley of the shadows of the anons. We know you want milk, so thanks for tuning in weekly to come and suckle. Keep talking about me. It boosts my huge ego. Here’s a secret - my ego is what sank the Titanic. I know, right? That’s like, so fetch. Put that in your Burn Book.
And now I can almost anticipate the responses. But Em! WHY aren’t you calling people oooouuuuttt!???!!! COWARD!!
I’ll tell you why. Because I’m no hypocrite. If I point a finger publicly, I deserve a million more back at me. And if I point a finger at a creator, as I have done with certain individuals who I have personal history with, it’s for reasons you can’t even begin to fathom. The rabbit hole goes deep with those I have a dislike for.
But EM! Your fiancé was mean to Taylor!! You’re a mean hypocrite!!! You hate her!
Yeah you’re right. He was mean. Last year I had NO concept of YouTube and the way YouTube works. I didn’t care about Taylor AT ALL because she wasn’t a real person to me. Just a face behind a screen. Danny made that video for his channel in the same tone he has made plenty of other videos. In truth I didn’t know he made it until I started getting a ton of hate. Was it nice or right? No. Danny removed the video but to this day is not a fan of PetTube or a particular friend to anyone. He stays in his own world elsewhere. I’ve decided to stay on YouTube and I swallowed the bitter aftertaste of that video even though it was not my creation. I emailed Taylor an apology and her email reply was gracious to say the least. That first wave of hate gave me so much more appreciation for other creators, and unless I have a deeply negative and personal issue with someone I have zero interest in picking other PetTubers apart. We’re all vituperous. We’re all flawed. Every. Single. One. In our little ‘clique’, we stick together because of groups like this, and we have healthy respect for one another because we’ve become more than allies. We’re friends. We’ve spent that time to get to know one another and worked through the internal dramas that nobody on Lolcow can begin to pretend they’re aware of. And guess what? Friends look out for each other. Elitist? Maybe. But thats life in many places, so you just have to square with that. Does that mean there aren’t issues? Nope. We consult each other daily and fix things behind the scenes like adults.
Am I jealous of Taylor’s following - Hell yes!! Who isn’t!? Are other YouTubers jealous of my numbers - yes! Is Taylor jealous of megatubers numbers? Yes! But jealousy doesn’t mean you can’t be supportive and happy for one another. Think about that.
And yes. I CAN be mean. Especially when people are unduly rude or try to speak with authority on matters they can’t begin to comprehend from behind a screen. I’m not always nice and I don’t pretend to be, so don’t paint me that way because I will only disappoint you.
If you’re upset about Centipede - I cannot help you. I don’t care either that you don’t like the script or content. It wasn’t made for you, princess.
I make movies for myself and I will happily say that I’m a selfish actress. I don’t aspire to win oscars or actively pursue a career in acting. I act for fun and take only the roles I think I’ll find challenging or interesting. If you’re upset by Centipede, lord help your opinion for my films to come! And remember, when I do ANYTHING, it’s for me, and I will continue to do everything I want to do because I do not give a ferrets fart about anyone else’s opinion on my life choices.
In the wise words of Eminem - I am
Whatever you say I am.
Make us (PetTubers) out to be whateeeeever you like. Really. We’re still standing here, creating our content, pursuing our dreams, and laughing (together) about how redundant this entire site is.
But thanks for the memories.
Thanks for the laughs.
And thanks to those who genuinely had something constructive to say. Even if it’s like sour milk for me to swallow when you pick a true fault in my care, I will swallow it nonetheless!
Ps: There’s plenty of quotes here for the next header picture. I want centre stage. Throw in a fake Oscar while you’re at it and give me shrivelled udders.
Peace out, moo-ther f*ckers!

I used to be neutral about Em, but this has made me not only dislike her but kind of feel sorry for her. I remember when I was a teen and wrote overly confident crap like that as a defense mechanism. To write a whole book like this and be that annoyingly fake cocky is pathetic and she must have been
triggered by people pointing out stuff about her here. Em, if you can’t handle criticism (whether it be warranted or not) don’t read here and please don’t post here either.

>>624026>Sorry to disappointNo you're not, and that's what's even more disappointing. I've lost all respect for you. I can't believe I actually liked you.
This feels bad. Kind of like when I got cheated on. I feel dumb for believing you were any different. Damn.

>>624024Same, now I have no pettubers to watch. If anyone has any good pettubers to recommend, please do.
Congrats Em, now I see you as a pathetic child who cares more about the haters(even though you would always tweet about how you don't),rather than your fans. There's a line between accepting criticism and defending yourself when needed in a mature way, and actually being blind and stupid, and you just crossed it.
I know I was one fan out of the millions you have, and I don't make any sort of impact on your sub count or followers, but I hope you realize that this will stay with you.

>>624017 Stupid worthless ugly cunt that nobody loves and ever will.
>>624001 you sound like you're trying to reassure and convince yourself that you are n o t a loser for posting here. Kek you visit and post here regularly, routinely, because you don't belong anywhere else only on a cheap looking site with shitty format and navigation that constantly breaks down, talking amongst a bunch of ugly female outcasts and female incels. Basically a bunch of stupid, bitter, twisted cunts that would readily talk behind your back if they were your "friend" irl anyway. The only place you feel you belong is a shitty looking image board that looks like a poor man's Windows pulled out from Bill Gates asshole in the 1980's. That's fucking sad. You wouldn't want to be associated with the site and have it acknowledged that you post here hence the anonymity, because otherwise it would just be social suicide.
The truth fucking hurts, Cunt.
Same goes for all of you. Such ugly, ugly, stupid bitches.
>>624010 Cunt.
Female outcasts that had it hard at high school gather together online to bitch about the lies other women make about themselves and appearance through photoshop with their online presence. Yet posters have lied and deceived others at least once in their life and have probably been cunts at some point in their life and even consistently. Highly hypocritical. What's even more astounding is how talking about these perceived nobodies (you call them nobodies but you always gossip about them so obviously they are someone to be worth your time and by talking about them constantly you just reaffirm the belief that these ones you gossip about a r e somebody - no publicity is bad publicity for them), is worth your time. A lot of you here are losers because a lot of you are NEATS. Even if the images produced by these women are fake and their actions questionable, so fucking what. I bet you make terrible fucking friends and are fake ass bitches to friends and people on the daily. I bet your irl presence makes people extremely unhappy. You post so avidly with bitterness because the photoshopped images on this site from "cows" just make you feel inferior and insecure about your feminity and looks as a woman. Jealously and lack of satisfaction in your own life are the main reasons behind the posts on here. Sad.
I've read plenty of posters irl dramas and stories in girk talk here and it makes me cringe. I go there when i want to read about the lives of the posters here and have a good laugh. And don't say ' um but i never post in girl talk/ a lot of the ppl here dont post in gtalk' lmao fucking please, of course yiu fucking do, it's all part if the site. You've at least read and posted there once. Sad pathetic bitches, go read a fucking book or do something productive, intelligent in your lives that makes your existence more tolerable and less embarrassing than posting on an outdated greasy neat cesspit imageboard. You might actually feel better about yourselves than riddle yourselves with anxiety from situating yourselves in drama and gossip, constantly posting negative bitch talk about people who you dont even know. How very generous of you to dedicate your own time to talk about people that either hate you or don't know you exist and wouldn't even acknowledge your pressence irl. Pathetic.

>>624102How would a controversy doing something looked down on in a thread benefit her at all especially so close to their butt buddy get together? She will never win anyone from here after that crash, and no one else is going to give a flying fuck about this thread to care. The most that will happen is she is giving lolcow more visits; some will stay, some will lurk, some will shit post and be banned/deleted and some will contribute. She really only hurt the pettube community.
>>624104Yeah I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her after all the sneaky and back stabbing shit she's done on here.
