Has anyone ever seen this guy on youtube muffdaddy2 ? I mean what a joke, he tells people to feed a ball pythons three times a week and then he turns around and says not to power feed because is bad. Its really laughable and I dont mean his jokes. Its also not cool that he is giving out wrong info to people that might be thinking about getting a reptile of any kind. I am just wondering if anyone else has ever seen him, and what there thoughts are?

He is a joke. Im sorry. He has a gravid boa and he suggested he is going to house the babies in a 10gal. what is that? Not prepared and wants to breed boas. I dont mean to be rude or mean, but he has public pet store husbandry. If I was his reptile id be mad to be put back in the same tank like the petco has. Id try to escape or bit everytime id get the chance.

Rofl, he is being attacked and getting a lot of weird threats.
He's taking it seriously and responding to them.

imo wasting his time

You guys didn't know? He is the "Leader of the Reptile Community".

Here is a video of him proclaiming his "Leadership".

He feeds his Savannah Monitors dog food. It's actually rather sad.

Homie is hilarious.
I feel sorry for him now. He acts like he's famous. It's just a bunch of little tweens who rally behind him. He's like a cult leader, he's been banned from most herp forum sites. His videos are just sad.(Ones not dealing with reptiles at all and he tries to be funny)

i got into it with that retard before, he has no education and is a stupid person. the way him and that other retard in his videos handle these snakes and some poisonous, they are not professional the way they go about them selves. and are taking the threat litterally because he carries his pea shooter wherever he goes and shows it in the video...lol he does think hes something big he put a cooking video of himself...haha listen i dont like that dirty as***** he should be banned from every reptile forum, and organization there is and for god sakes should not let him in a poisonous reptile show he has no idea... what hes doing..

I think some of you guys are being too hard on him. I personally do not agree with a lot of what he says. But some of his knowledge is valid. When I watch his videos, I filter out the nonsense that he says, and only take in the valuable stuff as review. He might not be the smartest guy, but his sure got more personal experience with reptiles than a lot of people, or me at least. He tries hard to make his videos as professional, helpful and entertaining as he can.

Plus, I have seen a lot of videos on Youtube about Ball Pythons, other than the mass overflow of really bad feeding videos shot with shaky cameras, most of them are of young kids, with little or no knowledge on Ball Pythons, trying to make care videos, which makes me more sad than angry. What I'm trying to say is, sure muffdaddy2 is not up to our standards here at BP.net, but for Youtube, he's not all that bad.

I think the real issue is that he is providing bad information. It does not matter if the bad information is mixed in with the good information. The point is alot of people do not know what is bad information and what is good information. He has 5000+ subscribers which does not include those who watch his videos and don't subscribe. That is alot of eyes and ears taking in every word he says.
You also have to consider who his audience is. It is and will be the new reptile keepers that don't know better and don't know that the information provided is bad. So they take it as good, but not just that some of those people then pass on the bad information as good.
Yes seasoned reptile keepers can watch his videos and see that some information is correct and some is not. But a new keeper can not
So it really does not matter if there is good information in with the bad. It really should not be posted unless all information is correct, especially considering the audience it is targeted at.

Just wanted to add something I caught in his ball python video.
He says that the White Feeder Rats and Mice with red eyes(Albinos) are like that because they gradually loose there color from long term captive breeding. What!?!
