Yes he will! Yea the paint is purty and new and also a rental he can do his 250$ in non refundable pet deposit damage:) what do they expect from non refundable pet deposits???o_O
Good to hear the grey is in good hands like Allstate. As far as kids I don't have any but I hear they are expensive :eek: for now its me the wife cats birds and fish and my little buddy krippy the uromastic:D
 
Had a little Sun Conure from a Lil ugly beak with coffee stirers all the way up to its untimely passing due to a live in exgirlfriend baby sitting a "cute little, likes ta hide stuff n tha like, fuzzy, soft, mischievous, stinking, evil, predatious, foul, good fer nuthin, heart breaking, best friend stealing, murdering varmint called a ferret. Which brought me enjoyment fer a time that spanned a measly 19 yrs of my life. Not that I hold any resentments or anything. Like she said when I got home that night," That bird was loud anyway and it only like you. And it always tried to bite me, once." And "it's not my fault, they never told me it ate meat in nature. I didn't think I needed to check with you. Quit being such a dick. It's like you care about that bird more than me. " Wat the hell was my problem? Really? How stupid of me ta pay a whole summer of lawn mowing back when I was 14 to buy a couple of days old bird that I hand fed, trained to mimic words, let me be its own personal tree, go to every hempfest I'd ever been to, was a best buddy, took my drives test with, sat on my shoulder as I got my highschool diploma. Yeah. WHY SHOULD I HAVE BEEN UPSET? That critter saved me from many more years of friendship and enjoyment. Plus it hid the carcass up in the attic deep in the rafters so I wouldn't have to deal with the burden of burying her for tha relief of closure. Yeah no resentments at all! Named tha chicken Dennis the Menace until she laid an egg in my hoodie pocket. Then it became Denise. Man I miss that Lil chicken! It was a shame that next night when that ferret got in my Congo African Grey's cage. And that bird decided to be a meanie and pierce that no good rats eyeball. I was just heartbroken. I wasn't surprised either when it's owner expected me to buy them another one. After my mean old parrot murdered that sweet Lil harmless ferret.
You've gotta hook up with women with more brains than that. She couldn't see the damn thing's teeth and see it's a fucking carnivore? Good for that African Grey! If it was like my father-i
View attachment 493187 There's all kinds of fucked up in there!!! Sorry for your loss bro and for the blindness these folks had on your feelings! Here's a picture of one of my fishes! I lost the other one just like him cause I had a stupid ass landlord that fave me 30 days to move after living there 5 fucking years!!!!!
Fucking NICE cichlid! Now I'm forgetting what the common name of this fish is, my fish books have been stored away for that long. :( I've got boxes and boxes of books I haven't seen for years, 10 now I'd say, at least.
 
@GrowGod There is no fuggin way you can put a cost analysis on kids. You can be broke as fuck an they make it out wonderfully, or you can throw a zillion dollars (people don't realize there is no such thing as money. It's a lie) at'em and they don't survive child hood. they are the world though. They are the meaning of life. Can't stand them time stealing bandits! I love my brats so much I could kill me. Lil bastards!
I loveta watch them fishtanks. My parents back in his beatnick college years used ta import fish an sellem ta pet stores. Had a breeding pair of discus back in tha seventies. Those African Ciclhids are purdy but they eat ever thin that ain't one them. Bet they taste like bluegill. Lol! Jus had a thought picturin me sitting thar in yer living room with a cork n poll tryin ta catch on fer supper. Lol! Damn! Fish sounds good! That reminds me..... Snagging season starts in like three days! Hell yeah!! FISH ON LADIES!!

That's just in dollar bills. @GrowGod Thar ain't a price tag on tha piece of your soul they take the minute your eyes meet for tha 1st time. How much does unconditional love cost? Better yet how much would you pay for someone to unconditionally love you? How much did it cost, fer tha hours of sleep you lose thru out yer life worrying bout em, an takin care of em, an nursing them back to health when they sick? I don't think ya can cost that stuff ota inta dollars. If ya could, Well Hell! I done gone an spent MILLIONS! I want my money back damn it! At least a return on my vestment.

LoL no pun intended but I enjoy being able to take my wife places and slap her ass around the beach without the financial struggles of kids and changing their stinky ass diapers. the only way you will get your money back on this one is if you live long enough to where they have to wipe your stinking ass lol
 
embarassing tha piss outta em on special occasions like first dates and first parties. First hangovers really kick ass too. Tha old wake'em with vintage headbangers ball at six am an tell'em "drink a whole bunch of water. Cures it right up" puts a smile on yer face. An their green ass face is priceless. Thought I'd git my oldest with tha whole spoiling grandkids then send'em home without a nap and a Dirty diaper bit but she chickened out like a wussie an done gone gay on me. Said she never having kids after watching wat I gone through. That's alright though I got six more behind her ta pay back. And I think acting like a male shovanist homophobic when her and her guygirl friend come over is pretty fun too. I honestly don't mind one bit. Love her unconditionallI I cant say I didn't see it coming. never liked dolls or fu fu stuff. Rather hang out hunting n fishin an tinkerin in tha shop. my twelve yr olds nuts ar bout to drop so I got my sights set on new pray. Can't wait till he tries ta take tha old man on. Keep tellin him ta exercise more. He's gonna need it. Lol
 
@showmegreen -- look into the dwarf Africans. Just as hardy (I have found that, on the whole, African cichlids out of the three major rift lakes, those being Malawi, Tanganyika and Victoria, are the hardiest of fishes to keep) as their full-size mbuna brethren.

Ok, that's a new genus since I've worked the biz. My African cichlid ID bible I bet is no longer relevant.

Nice snake! Do you whack the feeders before you give them to it, or does it need them to be moving to want to eat?

No I buy them pre frozen . I just defrost it first . I have to heat the rats up for some of the pythons as they have heat sensing "pits" around theyr mouth and will only go for it if it looks alive to it . but I don't have the heart to give them live prey plus rats bite and i don't want my pets injured . That one in the pic has only just started feeding again . That's the first thing it's ate since November . Every year they stop eating at winter . It's supposed to be theyr mating season or so i was told.

Yes rats can definatly do damage to your snake if he doesn't get ate first. And then if the snakes it hungry you have to keep the rat alive.
Nice looking snake by the way

Hey SM, look in the tanganyika book they should be there. I like the diversity of the tangs! Mbuna are some violent little shits if the tank isn't balanced right. If you want color mbuna and peacocks/haps are the way to go:)

Beautiful dog! My wife would love!:)
Praying mantis are awsome specimens! One day when the world gets taken over by aliens I hope they look like the mantis:D

So tangs are a type of African cichlid, not just a salt water dwelling purty fish with poison barbs on its sides? Interesting. Kind of like bluegill and sun perch and crappie and bass are all cichlids?

Ah, I whack 'em. Gotta whack 'em hard and knock 'em out the first time. I remember trying to train the Tran bros on how to whack a mouse or a rat, it was simultaneously hilarious and sad to watch them. We were bringing in all wild-caught snakes that would *not* take something dead, let alone something that had been frozen.

LMAO! No, you're right, tangs=surgeonfish. He was shortening up Tanganyikan to Tang I think.

Theyr called surgeon fish coz they have a sharp bit on theyr tail like a scalpel . here's my dad's salt water tank . The yellow fish is a yellow tang . couple of clown fish,coral beauties,etc . on the bottom right corner on the rock u can see one of his shrimps.

@Seamaiden I would love to live somewere were snakes are fairly common . snakes are VERY RARE in Scotland but we do get grass snakes and adders in the right habitat.
 
I can't recall how often I've mentioned, but I had to get work in the aquatic ornamental/exotic import/export trade to pay for my own saltwater habit. I got to meet a LOT of people, some of them now showing up on programs like Tanked (ugh). I've had to ship some giganto Naso tangs, and, well...

Let's just say that despite being herbivores, if you put too many in a system, do not be surprised if you come back to a buncha shredded fish. Shipping Nasos means double-bagging with newsprint *and* black plastic liners.

Pufferfish are easier!
