    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....

Good trade with Jimmy at Tex-Hiss!!

Did I say thanks Jimmy!?!
 
Can I ask why he included the extra snake?  I've gotten a few extra frogs in large shipments before....but I've never had my order doubled!!  That's crazy!

This is just a fun hobby for Jimmy, not his source of income. So, keeping that in mind....Maybe he needed to clear out some cage space mighty quick. I know he's had another litter drop, maybe more on the way. Maybe it's because we have become friends. Maybe he had a wild hair - I know those can sometimes get people to do crazy things they wouldn't normally do. :eek:) Maybe he really liked the adult I gave him in trade. Maybe he didn't like the extra baby because she's strongly peppered or maybe she bit him and ticked him off (although, she's been sweet here, so I doubt it). Maybe I was the 100th customer and got a bonus. Maybe he just felt like it. Maybe...maybe..I could make up a whole page of maybes. But, when you get right down to it, any reason is ok (of course :eek:). It was just a pleasant surprise, and I accept it for such. :eek:)
Thanks again Jimmy! :eek:)
 

Maybe so!  Maybe soooo!!!!  Kinda wierd to do at this time but you never know.  I'm glad it worked out for you Laura.
Take care!

Jimmy is a good guy, had several deals with him. Never had a problem, his animals were awesome. And his facility was impressive also. Jimmy does like to make people happy when possible, I bought a rack from him. And he helped me out on the price when he did not have to go any lower. Just because someone does somethhing for someone else, does not necessarily mean something negative. Why look too far into an issue, Laura was just showing off her snakes. While showing gratitude towards Jimmy.  Hope u enjoy the freebie Laura,  and Jimmy go clean a cage! LOL

I also have had recent dealings with Jimmy  (Tex-Hiss reptiles). I am A Dissabled Vet and he worked with me in any and every way he could a real credit to the reptile business, I don't think you could find a better more honest guy to deal with if you tried to. He worked with me on payments, delivery and when it came down to the last payment he even gave me a little break then. He knows my financial situation and was very understanding about it. he definatly isn't in this business to get rich he is in it for the love of the animal.

When my hypo arrived it was very well packed and he was very healthy, and just as he had explained him and his photo's if not better, He is a beautiful snake.

Jimmy is a great guy and I will be happy if we can do further business in the near future, he was very helpful weather it is answering your e-mails promptly or on the phone, he will help you out anyway he can.

I have talked to him several times on the phone and everytime i have called no matter what he was doing he put it to the side long enough to answer my questions to my satisfaction.

If you are looking for a snake and you have a choice between jimmy and someone else even if they are just a little cheaper (which I doubt) go with Jimmy by all means you won't be sorry I promise. beautiful snakes and sevice to match what else can you ask for.

jimmy I know you have heard this in every e-mail but,
Thank's again, and
GOD Bless You and Yours.

I am not posting this to kiss butt nor in hopes to get a free snake. Jimmy with Tex-Hiss Reptiles is running an (A) rated hobby. How many of the big name breeders give you their attention and tips to improve your OUR animals and breeding success? This guy is by far the best herper that I have dealt with.  You can buy big name bloodline snakes from him for a fraction of the cost if you bought them direct. Finally, Jimmy actually gives you GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.

He quickly responds to emails, phone messages, and most importantly when he says he is going to ship ....he ships! I live in Wisconsin and the way he packages his snakes provides them comfort and safety for the long flight to me.

Also, his animals are always healthy, active and very good looking! Quality, Quality, Quality! His pictures do not do his snakes justice!

I recommend those that have not bought a snake from him do so. It is very rare to find a nice, honest guy like Jimmy that is not stuck up and always puts his customers 1st!  

Keep up the good work Jimmy!

Thanks,
Robert Baker
 
Went to the airport last night to pick up a very nice looking DH Ghost boa that I purchased from Jimmy. I am very pleased. Jimmy did a great job with the packing, and everything went very smooth. The boa was just as Jimmy described.

I would not hesitate to buy from Jimmy again.

:D
