    This guy has always bothered me, but seeing things like this kind of upset me.

    He doesn't know what he's producing?

    Wow. Doesn't know what he produced or how he arrived at it, jamming his fingers in the eggs like that...there isn't enough disinfectant in the land for me to attempt that, unless it were life or death for the hatchling. Pretty casual about what he's doing, like it's just about the potential dollar signs and less about what he produced or the health of the animals. I dunno...I won't judge on the basis of a single video but I'd be hesitant to buy from him if that's standard practice.

    Jay is probably one of the top, most knowledgeable retic breeders in the world. He has produced the first of quite a few retic morphs. That said, I do hear unsavory things about him from time to time. Though him digging his fingers into the egg is really the least of my concerns; the babies are fine.

    I can't stand that guy either. I was going to make a post like this on one of his other videos where he teaches some girl to cut eggs, but I figured I'd get flamed by all of his supporters. I can't believe they pull the snakes out of the eggs like that. I'd never buy anything from him.

    so, idk much about eggs and hatchlings and whatnot, and i sure dont have any hands on, so im not really gonna pass judgement, but arent you supposed to let the babies come out on their own, instead of shoving your alien hand in there and ripping them out?

    Man, this video just gives me the shudders. While I'm not into retics, if I was I don't think I would support that business. He may be a well known breeder and produce some fine animals, but seeing him shove his fingers into those bloody eggs and pull out tails and heads just... ugh. No way. Cutting the eggs is one thing.

    Also, you should probably know what you're breeding if you plan to sell it.

    the part that bothered me the most was when he straight grabbed one by the head and ripped it out
