Vegas has the over/under at 5 1/2 for the number of times before he leaves the hospital via the basement exit.
What an idiot.
The teenager claims he has about 150 snakes in bedroom.
That kid needs some RAID!
I feel sorry for his parents. You can see where this is
eventually going. Usually humans deceive themselves
and don’t listen. Regardless of age, it’s a control issue
over the animal, combined with attention dominance
among other males. Even so called professional animal
handlers eventully get into serious harm or death.
Crocodile Hunter comes to mind.
Wild animals are wild. Lets leave them there.
Why bother and waste resources,with 150 snakes living in his bedroom, he wants to meet his maker, let him.
This is one lucky guy or maybe god has a job for him. I have to wonder why he has 150 snakes in his bed room. But one thing is for sho. I don’t think he has many sleep over friends.
I don’t think he will have many sleep over friends. But at least he is not making meth or any other drugs. He wants to study snakes, HE should go to washington dc, We got a lot their.
Sounds like an awful roommate.
As the old saying goes, play with fire you’re going to get burned, in this case, play with snakes you’re going to get bitten. . . strange past time this boy has.
The apostle Paul, when bitten by a snake, shook it off into the nearby fire.
I suggest dumping the 150 snakes into a fire, and then no one will be bitten by
those snakes anymore. It is much cheaper than taking them to the jungle and
setting them free in the wild. Also, the boy needs counseling and discipline not to
house snakes, etc.
