You're really on a roll tonight. When are you going to post the one about the vodka-swilling Russian whose ex-wife lit his privates on fire? I expect they were autistic as well. :roll:

I doubt it. An aspie who doesn't like snakes wouldn't have killed it, but run off. This kid just hates 'em.

If that had been my snake I'd have stomped on the kid's head.

Little f***er, I hope the owner finds out who the kid and his father are and sue their arses



I had to euthanise a yearling cornsnake by whacking it on the head and it was hard and traumatic for me because I spent almost a year trying to keep that little snake alive by force feeding it when it didn't want to eat which was all the time. It never ate on its own for me. It should have been at least five times its hatching weight, but it never grew much because of not eating. Then its half siblings (same mother different father) hatched two and 1/2 weeks ago and to my horror it was only an inch longer than the new babies and noticeably skinnier because the babies were still living off the egg yolk from their eggs. It was so weak, it was barely moving, the new babies were all over the place, they were so lively.
I went onto the internet to a cornsnake forum and asked advice and was told to euthanise him because he was going to starve to death and that I'd done all I could and some hatchlings are just not meant to be and that's why cornsnakes lay so many eggs because a few babies fail to thrive when they hatch and are picked off by predators and even the healthy ones can fall pry to predators.

I love all my snakes from my bitey little Californian Kingsnake who hates my hand to the new cornsnake babies to my major €€€ albino boa constrictor.


That kid deserves a kick up the arse, little brat.
