From the ad:

"No Eyed Red Eared Slider Hatchlings

These little babies are true miracles of nature. They have the same parents as Stevie our no eyed mascot. They are truly unique in every way. They are smart and adapt quickly. They aren't shy either, when they hear your voice they become excited just like any seeing turtle does. The one thing they need help with until they are use to their surroundings is feeding and as smart as these little fellows are it won't take long for them to get adapted to your feeding schedule. So if you have the time and love for a special needs turtle, order one of these little gems today and enjoy them for a lifetime.

No, this guy breeds them deliberately.
Breeding deformed animals for fun and profit.
Not a world shattering story, but I'm a fan of turtles.
Sometimes I hate people.

That is pretty sick. Intentionally breeding freaks of nature??

Perhaps someone like this is reponsible for liberals.

The breeder should be forcibly deformed.

Cruelty to animals is not a basic human right.

I agree, what this person is doing is atrocious. At least a sighted turtle has a little chance if flushed down a toilet or tossed into a pond, these blind guys don't stand a chance.......
