With what you see everyday, you are probably right.
But based only on what he has posted....

and let's face it, taking proper care of a corn is as easy as pie.
So, he is either incapable of it, or he really doesn't give a crap.

If he is incapable, then how capable is he in other areas?
And if he doesnt give a crap, then what other things won't he give a crap about?

So, looking at this from the standpoint of someone in the business of adopting out children does he seem like a good risk to you so many others want to adopt as well?

edit to say, if your reproductive organs work, any idiot can be a parent. And most of the time the kids do ok. But this guy wants someone to hand him over a child. Based on what he has posted so far...well my opinion has been stated.
 
I don't know Beth...

But I think it a 50/50 here.

You can have a fancy house, food on the table and take family vacations.
And still be a ty parent.

Edit.. I only read what he posted on this thread. I have no clue on his history.

Dave, you are right, you can.
But he is asking someone to hand over a child for him to raise, when he has made it clear that he does not care to do what is best for his pets.
He "might" make a great parent. And if he could "roll his own" it would be a mute point. But if I were in the adoption business, based on what he has said, he would not be getting a child from my agency.
 
Okay, I think there has been enough speculation on big chris' ability to parent based on his ability to keep snakes. Can we tone it down a bit, please?
 
Well, I never been to his house . I don't know if he has a good job and I can't look into his eyes.

But I hope the adoption agency does their job.
 
Not to mention but it's kind of like....

"Hey I came on here and wanted to know if my biggest corn can eat it's cagemates. Yes, I keep 3 together. Oh, you said he can do it and that I should seperate them. Oh you showed me pictures of cornsnakes eating each other. Oh some of you had cornsnakes die because you kept them together. Oh, well, I think I will keep them together anyway, no matter what you told me. No matter what has happened to yours, I think mine are just fine together. No no no I will not listen to you. You are all wrong, and I am right".

Then less than a month later he starts THIS thread...

Oh, now I need help with THIS problem. Please help me. I need to know what to do so I can adopt.

It's like, he wants to listen to what we have to say NOW??
Obviously he thinks we know absolutely nothing about cornsnakes, so why all of a sudden are we experts on what an agency would be looking for in an adoptive parent?
