    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I just recently completed a deal with Patrick and could not be more pleased. He was more than happy to work around my schedule and finances in order to get it done. Communication could not have been better, expecially considering the time difference between california and here(Connecticut). I got what was claimed to be the nicest looking male Patternless rock they had, and I couldnt agree more. He is absolutely gorgous, and a great eater as he has had three rats since his arrival on the 7th. He has settled in nicely and is as healthy, active and inquisitve as any rock should be. His temperment seems stellar, although I never handle a rock for the first two weeks unless need be(cage cleaning ect), so he is still "settling in" if you will. I went in twice to fill his water and he left me alone( I was definately in his range), no striking or anything, the usual rock hiss, but even that was pretty laid back. The shipping was handled very well, great box and very timely. All in all I will not hesitate to do business with them in the future, heck, I would right now if money were no object! A big thanks to Patrick, and look for some pics in the coming weeks in the discussion forums! Attached is the original pic sent to me just to show him off. Dan M.

I totally agree. I just recently bought a retic from them and Patrick is a great guy. Well, for a crazy bastard. lol. He is hilarious.
I would definately do business with him again.
Great looking rock by the way.
 
PreHistoric Rocks!

I have made several BCI purchases from PreHistoric Pets and was always well taken care of. Patrick is always available on his cell phone, answers e-mails quickly, and worked with me on finances/payment plans. All of the animals were well represented and actually looked better when they got here than the ad pics, and they take good pics. Snakes were always in bags, and shipped in styrofoam lined boxes, with plenty of newspaper via Delta Dash Overnight. Dealing with them was an A+ experience. I highly recommend them to anybody and look forward to doing business with them in the near future.
 
Thanks!

I really appreciate the comments. It helps when the customers are just as easy to work with. I wish that all of the transactions we do could go perfectly, but I guess that's just wishful thinking. Thanks again for the great comments!

Have to agree. I purchased a Cali King/Sinaloan cross from them earlier this year and they were a pleasure to work with. And the snake arrived in great shape and he's still doing great.
