Clown husbandry feels like walking into a random room full of passionate 4 year olds mid way through an extensive game of pretend and getting threatened with a gun
ong
Obsessed with the idea that theatre kids are now confirmed Clowns. I mean, officially in the books.
The entirety of the bard/ theatre kid story really got me as an ex-theatre kid. Something Rotten getting mentioned was such a jump scare.
I currently work in theater and when theater kids (or any clown really) is brought in it's such a delight
wait this makes me a clown!!!!
@@notyourdaughter666 at the very least part clown, could be in your background
Holy shit I’m a clown…
My mom refuses to come over my house because I’ve recently adopted a scare clown… it’s honestly so heartbreaking how demonized the scare clown breed is :(
Scare clowns are excellent at their skills so it's understandable that your Mom is legit scared. It's just the price you pay for having an excellent clown.
I had a scare clown myself my family agreed to calling; 'black licorice' and things were fine for awhile since we were used to licorice's jump scare greetings anyway from being a family of fnaf playing gamers.. but one day after moving to a house with stairs my dad was tired that day from work not anticipating the spook once he reached the top and ended up breaking his spine 😭swore to never get a scare clown again and kicked licorice out
@UTTP-142hey what
@@caramel9154 report and move on
Ugh I wish the public could see how genuinely sweet and loyal scare clowns are. I don’t have one myself but I love scare clowns and hate that they are so misunderstood.
"I think that's just a man" I FUCKING DIED
Thank God my roommate didn't ask what was funny when they heard me laugh at that line, it'd take a while to explain 😂
I broke. 😂😂
Tumblr users abilities to “Yes, and?” is unmatched.
Best thing about Tumblr honestly
I love tumblr for this.
Just about to post this. So very true 😂

This is the worst sentence I've ever read. Thank you for your service
@@strayiggytv you're welcome ‼️‼️‼️
@UTTP-142bro, wtf
@@dustymeislahn3221I thiiiiink they were trying to come up with a worse sentence and I mean. They DID. 😱
@@OctopusOwl they're literally spamming the n word under every comment for some reason. bot prob
As deeply uncomfortable as clown husbandry posts make me feel, i appreciate the creeping insinuation that theater kids are also a species separate from human beings
literally. like on one hand, dehumanizing others isn't funny. on the other, yes it is
@@firelordoregano5632 Tbh I suspect most posts that identify theater kids as clowns are written by current or former theater kids lol. Dehumanizing YOURSELF for comedy is fine because you are, by definition, in on the joke lol.
@@MorganChaosas the poster of the bard story I can 100% say yes I am a former theater kid 😂
it is at the point where I realized that clown are, still, fully sapient people in the world of this fiction and not, like, dogs or whatever that I started to actually grow uncomfortable with this. like, this is JUST slavery that is being described. Very weird slavery. it is funny tho.
@@Animenite97 I think they're more like monkeys? They have some intelligence but they're not at human level
THAT MIX BREED FEMALE THAT OP WAS TRYING TO IDENTIFY IS A JUGGALO!!
This is what I love about the clown husbandry community: no matter how rare or obscure the breed is, there is always someone who has exactly the answer you need. Although according to my research, Juggalos can be a tricky breed. They have specific enrichment procedures, diets, and it's best if you let them gather with their kind periodically for mating and social requirements.
@@ebagentjYes. People often dont want to give them cigarettes because they "smell" and even those who do, so often fail to understand Juggalos NEED specifically MENTHOL cigarettes for their markings to come in and to develop their whooping sac properly. Don't get me started on people who try to substitute Faygo with things like Mountain Dew.
@@ebagentj As long time Juggalo owner I can tell you that they are actually very easy breeds to take care of, but they are very misunderstood and definitely a rarer species to find since they aren’t usually as kid friendly as a Whiteface/Circus clown in most circumstances, this can be seen with it being labeled a Scary Clown just because of its unique coloration and markings. More information should have been gathered and taken into consideration before jumping straight to labeling from behind a screen.
Juggalo’s are very docile and are good with people. The only time they get violent is when the know that a person around them is a criminal especially one that has escaped justice or if a human they are close to is in danger, because of this they are great guard clowns. Even if a person isn’t a direct threat Juggalo’s have a slightly scary aura to people who aren’t used to them, while this has it’s advantages for “chicken” or “pig” hunting and as guard clowns, it also leads to good people being afraid to approach a loving, caring creature that may just change their life for the better.
The mention of a soda smell is a good sign though, it means that it is well fed and is getting enough daily sugar specifically from their favorite drink called Faygo, WHICH SHOULD NEVER BE SUBSTITUTED WITH MOUNTAIN DEW!!! The whooping sound is also a good sign, that means it feels welcome and safe around the owner and the male clown. A great way to make them feel even more accepted is to whoop back! Specifically twice before waiting for a response! For me and many others Juggalo owners whooping becomes a reflex when seeing a Juggalo or even fellow Juggalo handler.
Juggalo’s share many traits with Auguste clowns but are actually not related to them at all! Juggalo’s were a result of breeding Hobo Clowns with modern descendants of Bards and Jesters. The Hobo Clown genetics would explain the red coloration and the modern Jester is the explanation for the very unique facial markings! Another thing is that because of the Hobo Clown genetics a Juggalo can last on the bare essentials for weeks at a time! Strays are known to gather multiple times a year and set up temporary living spaces and even areas for the Juggalo’s with more Bard DNA to preform. This Posse of Bardic Juggalo’s are held to a higher regard almost like queen ants too their colony and are known to even feed the other Juggalo’s in excess. These gatherings are a beautiful sight, and sound!
@@ebagentj I had just written four long paragraphs about Juggalo facts but after I pressed send it disappeared, I’m disappointed RUclips, do better
@UTTP-142 Dude what
I'm NOT ASHAMED of my clown husband.
Sawbones mention?
often people say clown of a husband :)c
um it is deeply unethical to seek out a romantic relationship with a clwon actually. Homo ridiculous do not pair bond in the same way that humans do, and find marriage cloying and distressing. Some breeds may be highly intelligent, but none can actively consent the way an adult human can. I am reporting you to the clown spca.
Wrong discourse, buddy
Okay, man, wow, cool
Like two years ago when I first found clown husbandry I was like "this is so funny all the discourse is so unrealistic" WRONG PAST ME since then I've gotten a service dog and been in a lot more serious dog spaces this is EXACTLY what it's like people do stupid shit with their dogs and are 100% convinced they're right also there's so so many people that defend byb like dude what
( I had to look up "byb" = back yard breeder/breeding. )
@@becauseimafan oh yeah sorry I forgot to clarify that thank you
Bruh as someone who has a special interest in animals and used to consume tons of animal husbandry content, the reason why I found clown husbandry so hilarious and intriguing is specifically BECAUSE it was so incredibly accurate. It's clear the people who came up with this were probably talking from experience.
Also reminder jeff bezos does not have a monopoly on audiobooks, your local library also might have audiobooks. My app of choice is libby!
I luv Libby!! Also hoopla
taught my class clown to read for me
oh, I didn't know audible was bought by Amazon. that sucks :/
Libby slaps. Friendly addition that you can not only request audiobooks and graphic novels from your library, but you can even tell them you want it through libby!
I've done this loads of times and depending on your library it can be pretty dang fast too! My library is a beast when it comes to getting my requests in.
Also, one more thing! Libby isn't only a US thing! These days, it covers lots of countries!
BorrowBox is also a good one in the UK!!!
the female clown making the whooping noise is a JUGGALETTE! this is their most distinctive feature. omg i hope they got it figured out when they took her to the vet, juggalo/juggalette breeds have specific needs that someone might not recognize if they don't know what they're dealing with.
Juggalos/ettes need such specific care too! Diets with high faygo content, ICP concert moshing and wrestling for proper exercise and horror core and rap music for proper mental stimulation.
It's why it's illegal to own Juggalae in so many European countries, because the proper nutrition and socialisation is just not readily available.
sometimes i think about how in 5000 years some historian might find fragments of clown husbandry knowledge and write up a detailed book about clown husbandry in the 21 century with a speculative chapter at the end about how clowns seem to have vanished without a trace leaving the world a less happy place
The temptation to make a very seriously written book on this and hand bind it. Put it in a time capsule or something. Just to be uncovered many years later.
And with the clowns went all the balloon animals too.
Sad times in future history..
SO hope that Strange properly explains the HORRIBLE ethical problems with 99% of clown husbandry. So many people spread so much misinformation about it.
It's really irresponsible of Strange to be rubbernecking this community. You don't get to just play tourist when you have a million-strong viewer base!
please i need you to elaborate ethical problems with the posst?? ethical problems with strange posting about this community??
It's a joke about how much discourse there is in most animal husbandry communities
Im so disappointed in her not mentionning that :/
sooooo hysnabdary is not growing an adult clown to be your husband? please educate me
I found a stray clown in my backyard last night, and I’ve been keeping it in a cardboard box in my bathroom. Going to Party City tonight to pick up supplies!! Thanks for the helpful video, Strange!!! :)
remember to buy quality cotton candy for them, and congrats on winning the clown distribution system!!
Careful with those flavored cotton candys. My clowns LOVE the Hawaiian punch/Skittles cotton candy but I only use as a high value reward for training.
Try to grab some feeder mice as well!
Can you feed clowns gumballs? I have a Jester in my yard and it's the only candy I have right now
@@fallenking578it might hurt their tummy. Chewing on it and blowing bubbles is fine and dandy, but you can’t truly FEED it to them, and if they’re a stray they might not know not to swallow it.
My sister and I used to pull this shit where we just made up random clown lore and said it like it was biological fact. Tragic that we never came across clown husbandry until now
Any inaccuracy between care in the separate clown species just make it more realistic
As someone with childhood coulrophobia and adulthood coulrophilia, this trend inspires a lot of conflicting emotions.
that's so real of you, really went from "turn down the clown" to "down to clown"
❤🤡❤
Truly, this sentence implies a journey that I am desperately curious about
this is the Hero's Journey I want to see.
I would buy your autobiography and read it in one sitting. I need answers 😂
@@taylor_green_9 Won’t be hard to do since said autobiography is only two sentences:
At age seven, I saw the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series.
At age thirteen, I saw Harley Quinn in Batman: The Animated Series.
ugh that theatre kid story hit close to home :/ i knew someone once who would only let their theatre kid listen to les misérables. dropped them so fast, and luckily the theatre kid was brought to a clown rescue
Happened to a theatre kid I know- unfortunately, intervention is impossible, by the time we tried to help she was fully convinced she was simply a French human. I hear her talk about family in france and it crushes me knowing those memories are false.
@@kwowka I laughed so hard at this I started coughing, I just had to tell you. Thanks! 😂
The amount of Theatre Kids who get stuck in their Les Mis or Hamilton phase is a constant problem. At least when they get to the Star Kid phase they have multiple musicals so they get a more varied diet x
@@hotpinkcrayolas Hamilton isn't as bad to put your Theatre Kid on since the tracklist is so long, but in my opinion it's the lesser of two evils. Of course, any novel musical stimulation is vital for a Theatre Kid's wellbeing, so if Hamilton is the only music your 'kid will accept then by all means keep playing it, but long term I'd try to convert to niche off-Broadway musicals as the transition from one show's tracklist to another will be easier for your Theatre Kid to handle.
@@hotpinkcrayolas STARKID MENTION
Kiki's story broke my heart. Some Clown Owners have no respectfor their clowns. They try to enforce their own sugar free diet on their clowns and that may be ok with certain breeds, like Mimes (who should be given plenty of cigarettes) BUT All birthday mixes need sugar! The more refined the better!
Also the femlae clown with the mime companion is OBVIOUSLY from the Possius Insanus breed. They were especially popular in the 90's to mid 2000's, but have since become more of a meme to anyone not in the culture. She should be fed ONLY Faygo brand soda pop, as Faygo is specially designed for Possius Insanus, and NEVER whoop back at one unless youre ready for some play fighting.
I've had a few Possius Insanii and despite their markings and aggressive social displays seen in all members (which in other clown species are only found in the wild), these clowns are incredibly social and loving. I'd wager to say moreso than a scare clown at times (so long as you have a big enough "posse" for it to live with).
They are bizarre but very protective of those they deem one of them. So sad their breed is seen as nothing but (ironically) a joke these days. My rescued teacup clown can't even laugh at that one
I have a question, if processed sugar is better for clowns, would it be better to provide brown sugar, or a highly processed alternative like dextrose? If the processing sweetness is the priority, dextrose seems more appropriate, as brown sugar is quite natural. Perhaps I should mill it instead? I have a thermomix, and my clowns have enjoyed me turning brown sugar into baking sugar.
I avoid honey- it seems to be too natural, but I worry this may be based on misinformation spread in the clown community. Could an expert like you please clarify? /Gen /srs
@@kwowka I have heard older breeds do better with more natural varieties of sugar, due to that being available at the time they were originally bred, but more recent and modern varieties have less qualms and sometimes even preferences for less natural kinds of sugar. Now it's VERY IMPORTANT you DO NOT give your clown sugar substitutes. I'm sure this doesn't need to be said, but you can never be too sure.
I recommend researching what kind of sugars were available around the time your clown's breed was founded and figuring out what kinds of sugars they can eat from there. Most clowns have a preferred kind of sugar that is the most healthy for them and this should be your staple sugar, but I encourage you use other kinds of sugars as treats or enrichment as having the same kind of sugar over and over again can be quite boring to most clowns. And boredom can be very detrimental to a clown's whimsy and overall health.
I don't own any clowns, as I don't think I'd be able to personally provide them with the care that they need, but I have had a hyperfixation on the topic for a while. My friend has a clown that definitely looks a lot like a mine (and their name is Pierre, go figure), but I've heard them whoop, which makes me think they're a mixed breed. (Obviously mimes don't whoop, right?)
Whenever I bring this up, my friend seems really angry about it, as she has a disdain for the Juggalo breed due to a traumatic event with one she had in childhood.
Every time I smoke around her clown, it always reaches for my cigarettes, but she won't allow it to smoke AT ALL. Also, she gives it coffee, which I honestly have no idea if they're Even able to drink without issue. Do you have any advice?
I don't own a clown, and I'm certainly no expert, so I don't want to destroy our friendship over this, but I just feel so bad for Pierre, and I want them to be as happy as can be. What should I do?
We recently adopted a scare clown whose previous owners were quite abusive and had no idea what they were doing. Initially he was easily spooked and provoked but has come around to be such a loving little guy. He finds a sense of pride in protecting our fostered clowns at night and has really taken the load off of our elder scare clown who can now spend the rest of his days on the ranch relaxing. Remember people, adopt don't shop.
I don't have the stats to back it up, but I have a hunch scare clowns are the most abused clowns out there. People seem to think it's okay to treat them like monsters 💔
@@Romanticoutlaw While I completely agree with you that Scare Clowns get an entirely bad rep and are often mistreated because of it, I find that it can not be understated how many of the breeds that are commercially advertised as "beginner breeds" are similarly mistreated. Often breeds such as Birthdays are advertised as "the perfect first clown!" And "great with children" and not only does this inflate the popularity and cause bad actors to set up breeding mills for the breed, it also gives people the impression that they don't have to put as much effort into their care or socialization which leads to them getting neglected in all their base needs: enclosure space, nutrition, socialization, etc.
I'm sorry if this came off as rude or condescending! I truly don't mean it to and I'm sure you already know this, as well! I've just found myself becoming somewhat of an advocate for birthday clowns awareness after having the opportunity to rescue a young birthday clown seized by local law enforcement from a breeding mill a year ago.
(Not to break immersion but likening scare clowns to protector geese is so funny)
@@Morrynlupinesome people actually have the audacity to keep their birthday clowns caged up for all but one day of the year. It's egregious.
@@poke-talia268 I completely agree! It's terrible that people would do that! I think that most domestic clown species should only spend the absolute bare minimum amount of time in a cage, like when traveling long distances or staying overnight at a vet.
It's so obvious that many of these posters are exotic pet owners based on the care knowledge they incorporate into their posts. Like in the first post, some reptile species feel too exposed and get stressed in tanks that are all clear glass. Love it.
Are they actually serious? Or is it a joke? Because if they’re serious…
i wish i saw more love for feral breeds like juggalos, living statues, and class clowns. i know they shouldn’t be kept as pets generally but they are such beautiful breeds and deserve more appreciation
The proper name for the rodeo clown breed is rodeo protection athlete. The more formal common name is a Bullfighter. They're a working breed and it is encouraged to provide them a job to keep them from sulking or destroying your house. Be aware when adopting a Barrelman, they're hecklers.
What's the proper name for Jesters?
@@fallenking578 Unappreciated.
@@coyoteartist they do seem to be under appreciated in the community
I know this is strange... but I lost my beloved dog 5 days ago. And this brought me back to her being a pup, and being a first time owner online... which, mixed with comedy, is oddly healing. Thanks, Strange. I genuinely wasnt sure if id ever chuckle or even smile again

It’s important to me that you know your first clown husbandry video sparked a passion for clowns in me that has only grown day by day. I have a clown keychain on my car keys. I paint sad clowns. I have so so so many clown OCs. Thank you for sending me on my own personal clown journey, it’s the closest thing to religion I have.
Love that for you

I prefer to call them Clown-kits or Gooflings!
@@felixascends4514 chucklets are fun too
I believe a clown's final journey is the return to their home dimension when they feel the end of their life approaching. It is, of course, entirely unknown what happens to the dying clown back there, though some people believe clowns are actually immortal in the Mirth Plane
My husband and I adopted twin mixed breed clowns a couple years from a rescue, best decision we ever made! They're great with our kids and help a lot with my anxiety. I can't imagine my life without them, even if it took a DNA test to determine what breeds they were mixed with to offer them the proper diet and enrichment. The rescue covered it, they were really amazing!
So lovely to see clowns working with children! It’s such a symbiotic relationship- clowns having primary colours that stimulate child brain development, and children’s laughter reinforcing the sense of purpose of clowns. I’ve been studying psychology, and it’s clear how positive a clown in a child’s critical period of development has the potential to be.
Move aside lesbian horsegirl stories, here comes lesbian clown rancher stories!
No, I’m not over here cryin’ over Doodles goin’ on his final journey…. 😭
It’s always a good day when there’s a Strange video dropped, it gets even better when it’s on tumblr communities.

Panic! At the unethical clown bubble orb
That clowngender post is especially funny to me cuz Andrew Hussie, the creator of Homestuck, had come out as clowngender a couple of years ago and *that* was the first time I've heard of the term so now I cant help but to have that as the primary reference to it lmfao

i've been watching a lot of true crime videos recently, so when I clicked on this one, the RUclips algorithm was absolutely stumped and was like "oh okay you like clowns?? you like clowns now? okay um....here's a true crime story about a killer clown! nailed it"
Nailed it indeed. Your comment really sent me my dude. I have been lucky enough on occasion to pitch my lil' algor a serious curveball, watch it be overcome with confusion & then spit out a perfect recommendation. It's like watching someone get struck by Lightning for a second time.
😅😂🤣😂😅
It's amazing how close this is to actual animal care discourse I've seen on Tumblr, it captures the vibe of some random post that shows up on your For You page for whatever reason and it's the most unhinged takes you've ever seen about how it's unethical to brush your cat's fur or whatever. Tumblr users are so good at observing and mimicking behaviour but ONLY for the bit, and I respect that.
Note for keeping a pack of theatre kids: make sure they are actually enjoying the part they play when they do group performances. Teach them to take turns in different roles, so that they all get the chance to star in their own performances. If they don't do well in one role, tell them they did a good job because they tried! It's vital to encourage them to experiment with their role, it shows other theatre kids that normally take a specific role that their peers are interested in and value them as part of the performance. This is especially important for theatre kids as a social species. Also, never keep a solo theatre kid! They get lonely if they don't have performancemates.
I completely agree! Especially about keeping theatre kids in groups. While they may enjoy the occasional soliloquy, they generally prefer cooperative performances!
Someone I knew back in my childhood town had a pack of them. I always wondered, is it normal for them to prefer certain kinds of performances than others? This particular pack *only* ever performed musicals and now I'm worried that they may have been being forced to only indulge in musical performances rather than getting an adequate variety :(
@@Morrynlupine The pack of theatre kids that my friend had definitely had a strong preference for plays and operas over other types of performances! I think every pack is different, if it's been a long time and a particular pack sticks to one type of perormance they stick to that in the pursuit of perfection, my friend's pack experimented for a while before they started refusing to perform other things. They might also perform only one type of thing to drive away a theatre kid who they reject from the pack, it's a sad sight to see.
Also! Theatre kids need to have a variety of roles! Only having them play one type of role can lead to a lack of enrichment, and some studies show it is a leading cause of depression In theatre kids!
I'm surprised the tag "clown breeding" isn't a frequently used one on ao3

I had a Pierrot style clown as a kid, we had to send him to a mime clown rescue when we had to move as where we moved would not have been the proper environment for them. The mime clown rescue got absorbed by an acrobatic clown refuge a few weeks later and I hope all the rescue mimes and acrobatic clowns were well cared for.
oh god... tell me it wasn't Big Binky Bob's Big Top Clown Rescue. I worked for bbbbtcr for a summer and it was a NIGHTMARE. Hopefully conditions have improved since then...
@@Romanticoutlaw the clown rescue name was already great, but the acronym took me OUT--
The clown husbandry discourse is INSANE
Brb. Going to write a wholesome short story about Clownery Ranch and all the lovely clowns that reside there.
I love this community! It’s rare to find a space so full of Clown Owners.
I think I'm about to become one. A Jester got abandoned at my house and I'm trying to get him to a vet. He's skiddish but warning up to me. My local rescue isn't taking any more stays so I guess I'm stuck with him for now. I'm struggling to find much on Jester care though
@fallenking578 I've fostered a jester, they can be quite headstrong and sassy once they warm up to you! Take it as a sign of love when they feel safe teasing you! If you can, establish a particular chair or recliner as your "throne" so they can sit in it, and scold them playfully when they do, it never gets old to them. They tend to have a stronger desire for fresh fruits than most clowns, but you can never go wrong with fruit-flavored hard candies. Above all else, patience! A lot of people abandon jesters because they take their japes and gaffs too personally, so it may take yours a while to trust that you won't harm them or force them to leave because they made a joke at your expense. They truly are some of the most loyal clowns out there when given a chance. Good luck!
@@fallenking578 Jesters are absolutely phenomenal! I'm still conducting research on them myself. I might foster one sometime, but I'm worried they might not get a long well with my birthday clown. While he is doing much better than when I first adopted him, he's still behind socially as a result of his upbringing.
When I got the notification for this video, I first read it as "checking in on the clown husbands" and I honestly just assumed it was the equivalent of snape wives. Which might be worse than assuming it's a fetish? I'm not sure.
i love that theater kids are now clowns as well
Obsessed with the fact that theatre kids are a clown species
Thank you Strange, you’ve inspired me to adopt my first clown. He’s a rodeo clown, and I’ve gone around getting him a dusty arena bowl around his bouncy castle
just glanced at the title before clicking and was like “hell yeah i love the clown husbandry video i’ll watch that” WHAT A TREAT THAT ITS A NEW ONE AND NOT JUST A REWATCH (i’ll probs still go rewatch it after this)
Imagine this kind of thing being unearthed by (way way way in the future) internet archeologists with all context lost. Imagine people trying to study ancient clownology and clown husbandry.
Experts are still divided on the reasons for how insular the communities were, with keepers seeming to congregate on this old social media platform, tumblr, alone. Perhaps this site was well known for advice on how to keep your clown.
Curiously, though image sharing was available, these communities rarely attached images of their clowns, preferring text description alone. Research is still ongoing.
As a theatre kid with a rtc hyperfixation I would also like the service called on me.
My adolescent Juggalo clown is going through a phase of only wanting to hoodleladdle to pop music, pray for me 😭
I really wish there was a metric for determining the exact amount of intersection between this community and the players of the game space station 13
I'm... Terrified that you pointed this out. I wonder if clown breeding failing results in cluwnes?
75%
To be fair the clown husbandry community is probably both larger and much different culturally than ss13, but I reckon goonstation probably has a pretty good overlap
@@user-burner I think a lot of MonkeStation players probably would be aware of the clown husbandry memes. I'm surprised it hasn't been added yet, honestly
They are related to humans but they have paws, are from a different dimension, are fungus, & are also similar to salmon. Amazing
Re: Giving your clown soda, if you have a breed that has seltzer glands (e.g circus, some circus-birthday crosses) giving them soda can be a double edged sword; on the one hand the carbonation of the soda definitely can help with seltzer production, but on the other sodas with food coloring (especially caramel color, the most common color added to colas, root beer etc) put a bit more strain on the clown’s excretory/waste systems and often the color is not completely filtered out, resulting in off-colored seltzer that could stain fabrics (ironic, since some circus owners are able to milk the seltzer to use as a stain remover.) I agree with the suggestion of sticking to sprite or clear sodas, but afaik caffeine should be fine for most purebred circuses but NOT for birthday since they already have a more hyperactive temperament.
Also on the subject of training clowns to not squirt their seltzer, obviously having to wipe up puddles of sparkling water isn’t fun, but squirting seltzer is an important form of self-stimulating behavior for circuses, and punishing them for doing it IS ABUSE; if anything, encourage your clown to only squirt their seltzer outside.
ADDITION: The only clown that “needs” soda is the juggalo, specifically Faygo, a brand of budget soda from Michigan, but this seems to be more of a matter of enrichment as opposed to nutrition, as juggalos are known to enjoy spraying each other with faygo.
I opened RUclips to find something to play while I draw and this was here from a minute ago what a miracle
the way i legit jumped for joy when i saw that a new clown husbandry video was up
Remember, don't get a ballpit for your clown unless you want them to start nesting
the implication that theatre kids are a type of clown is hilarious
father strange i cannot believe you are bringing this cursèd knowledge back into my brain
The sequel we never knew we needed
Its just a crative writing exercise, its just a creative writing exercise, its just a creative writing exercise *rocks back and forth in the corner*
Every new post on this subject draws me deeper and deeper into a world where I am no longer sure where a joke ends and starts- what is irony anymore? What is levity? What is even real?
Do you think this could be a sideeffect of my neighbours recent purchase of a Chaos Jester? They told me that the energies wouldn't be a problem because they have accordion and calliope music on loop in their apartment 24 / 7 and lined the walls with circus tent-cloth to create a containment field, but the way things are going.... I have stepped on five different bicycle horns today alone, and I swear I only own two.
a chaos jester? In an APARTMENT? Oh god.. that's a recipe for an infestation. Bad situation for everybody involved, especially the poor jester. If you're able to, consider moving to a different neighborhood before things start getting... irreversible.
I’m glad Strange is here to tell me about odd Tumblr stuff I only saw bits and piece of on my time using the site.
10:46 Squinting at the text, then frowning as I realize the poster is probably making a Homestuck reference.
I am so happy to hear an update on clowhusbandry. I rewatch the other two vids often. It's just so interesting.
I just adopted a juggalo- I know they have a reputation as an aggressive breed, but mine is a total sweetheart so long as I make sure he has enough faygo!
some of the sweetest clowns I've ever known have been juggalos! Surprisingly mellow too, when they're not partying. A lot of them are much more bark than bite
Most juggalos are seen as aggressive because often they aren’t properly trained or taken care of! The ones I’ve met have been mostly sweethearts! The only one to ever be mean was a stray who was very ill.
I love this trend because it's like hearing a infodump from a parallel universe
See clown husbandry is a fascinating community but I alas cannot read
I have said this every time you have posted a clown husbandry video, and if I ever fail to do so, it probably means I have been abducted by body snatchers or something:
Clown Husbandry is the absolute funniest thing I have ever heard of, and the absolute seriousness with which they all treat it elevates the joke so much. I LOVE this shit.
oh thank god this was posted, I was looking into adopting my own clown husband but ive been unsure of which breed would be the best fit, this video answered so many questions!
To the clown owners out there, does anyone remember a show from a decade or two ago about a woman who would rescue scare clowns? With a bunch of people serving out their parole or something? I wanna say it was called, like, Clowns and Convicts or something!
As much as I like to think I’m no longer chronically online, the fact that I read the words “Clown Husbandry” and just immediately understood what that meant would suggest otherwise.
I love clown husbandry discourse because its such a hilarious and instructive parody on how some people think about pets and farm animals
Hello Professor Strange!
I enjoyed your newest installation in the Clown Husbandry series. Hoping to see more on this fascinating subject.
My mother recently acquired an Auguste x Rodeo clown as a chucklet, who has recently had its first-year molt! She is very lively and strong as is to be expected from the breed, as well as intelligent (my sister has taught her several tricks which she enjoys performing for the occasional circus peanut as a treat) and sweet (very cuddly and will honk herself to an accordion-like slumber in my mom’s bed at night). I don’t think my mom was thinking it through completely, blinded by the glossy painted eyes sparkling at her through the phone screen, but it’s worked out for the best. I thank Whoever Is Up There that we have a large yard in which she may frolic between the tents and plastic ball pits we have had installed. She is still very rowdy, understandable given she is still so young, but I see many years with her as a beloved family member. Her name is Birdie (she ate a wild dove the first week she was home. She is since not allowed outside unsupervised.) and she is a very good clown.
I also liked your earrings. The petal-like structure is very cool.
Hoping you have a nice day.
I love seeing the clown husbandry community grow
Dang this episode of the clowns and the restless really sucked me in.
Clown Breeding is the most upsetting of the tags for me, personally
I haven't done the required reading but as a college senior with 2 Humanities majors I feel equipped to figure this out.
emotionally ive been feeling really rough and being reminded of the incredible wholesomeness of clown husbandry is making me tear up with happiness
Always love to see Locked Tomb promotion. I'm rereading Gideon the Ninth right now and it's consuming my thoughts
I loved all 3 of them that are out so far, but Harrow the ninth has probably some of my favorite twists and revelations in a book. It all feels so well earned and set up too.
@@Trevarooo I totally agree. I was full on screaming during some of the Harrow reveals
This just really makes me want to do clowning again, it would be a funny series to do with a friend, having them go through the ins and outs of owning a clown
missed opportunity to not title this video "STORYTIME: DO NOT FEED YOUR CLOWNS THIS!!"
Awed by how shocked and delighted everyone is to discover that theatre kids are clowns. Clown is a theatrical art! Irl all clowns were once some kind of theatre kid, so in this universe all theatre kids must be feral clown pups that aren’t yet fully/successfully domesticated.
(Signed, a theatre kid who did a couple clown classes at acting school and is now wondering if there’s a specific quantity of face paint past which dehumanizing someone gets dramatically easier)
love how she said breeding and among us in the first minute
OMG THIS IS PERFECT TIMEING CIRCUS IS MY HYPERFIXATION RIGHT NOW AND I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!
I wonder how actual clowns feel about this
my mom is a magician who occasionally did performances as a clown, and she was in hysterics when i showed her my favorite clown husbandry posts. i imagine that in order to be a clown, you have to be at least somewhat good humored and not take yourself too seriously lol
ngl this is my favorite video content on the internet i hope the clown husbandry community never dies and u keep making these
New strange video and it's about a topic of which I have no knowledge and will probably leave me scared of Tumblr and confused.
Can't wait to watch it.
Man - I interacted with this fandom once when I was a teenager without knowing what it is. What strange and classy people.
tumblr's yes and game is off the charts
RAHH CLOWN HUSBANDY, fun fact your videos got me into the hobby and now I have adopted about 2 clowns, these sweet lil guys are the light of my life
I wonder if there’s such as thing as specialized shampoo for clowns
Some clowns use the small fake flowers that spray water to clean themselves; these flowers are not just for spraying you in the face.
Exactly as above said! Similarly, I've heard some subspecies shouldn't use water to bathe as it can damage their skin and hair. For example, some sub-species of rodeo clown should be given sand-baths unless absolutely necessary.
that mime and the juggalette (as ive learned from the comments) are the cutest together, omg thats precious.
Lol Bard Queen's story was top tier 😂👌
