    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 have produced blairsXpyro crosses that could be siblings to that one. IF you're looking for pureblooded blairs, I don't think that is one.
 
I concurr

My guess was that's it's a alterna x thayeri milksnake phase also.

I hate to see snakes misrepresented by sellers, because it's not fair to the person just new into the hobby or doesn't know enough about the species, thinking that it may be cool morph, and later they find out they were swindled.

There's one here in the faunaclassified under kingsnakes, Variable Kings **Sub-Adult Pair**.

I've been looking for a really nice '03 or '04 female thayeri for my male. I've posted twice on this add saying it was misrepresentation or not a truly a variable thayeri kingsnake. I even reported this add nearly two weeks ago and nothing has happened. Seems like this is a BOI incident waiting to happen when the buyer learns it's a subspecies cross and not a true thayeri pair. I was very disappointed to see and like that on this site. Makes me question the honesty and intregity of the seller Prehistoric and knowing I would never purchase anything from them or their company.
 
Well, according to the questions and answers section of his add, "PJ" says that this is a pure Gray-banded and continues to auction it as such. here it is:

I have queried this "pj" about another cal. king he has an add for as well. Claiming it is another morph, a new one at that.

I suspect this guy is, to put it mildly, full of ****e.

So far no reply. And I was even nice and polite. What a waste of my time.

I'd AVOID this guy. That's the advice I would give were anyone to ask me.
 
Yep. He was questioned on the adds Q&A section, but holds fast to the snake being a pure Alterna. I can not find one person who aggrees. He says he owns the "Snake Pit" in Valdosta GA.

He should at least pull the add or change the wording. His current tact is "Kiss my Ass"
 
It would be stupid to buy from such an ignoramous idiot. A seller that doesn't even know what he's selling or purposely scamming people, like I'd expect him PJ at Snake Pit in Valosta GA to even put the correct snake in the box on shipping.

This is happening here at faunaclassifieds too and I posted about it on this thread. I'm surprised from reading the BOI and how many people make a big deals about sellers and buyers, then write under their noses on their favorite reptile hobby site that they respect and love there are obvious adds like this where someone is going to get screwed. WTF? and I reported it too.
