Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I recently ordered from Tom. They were frogs and not snakes, but he was easy to deal with and shipped when promised. Packing was good, I would order from him again anytime.

I've also dealt with Tom, and I can tell you he's got his act together! The animals were nice and the shipping was fine! I wouldn't hesitate buying from him again, if he had something I wanted! ....Neil

I purchased an animal from Tom on the expectation it was arriving soon. The animal turned out to not be available and Tom returned my $500 that day without a problem. I never of anything bad about him and referred a customer to him for a pair of Green Tree pythons, they told me the animals arrived healthy and were flawless. I'd use him again.

I have made several purchases from Tom beginning last October (2001). His animals are always as decribed, if not better, and when he's shipped in cold weather, the animal containers have been wrapped in thick layers of foam. Overall he's very professional and a very nice guy!

I have never purchased from Tom but spent over an hour on the phone with him. Being in the same locale and both of us having been in the animal health care and breeding profession for decades, Tom exhibited to me that HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. He not only knew the same circle of veterinarians and animal breeders I did and worked with, but had very good information on all types of animal care; mostly exotic.
When quizzed, he certainly passed with an A plus as to knowing the experts, working and training the new and upcoming experts, and was exceptionally knowledgable in the vast field of reptiles and amphibians; their care, medical treatment and cage and enclosure design.
After getting off the phone with Tom, I must say; he impressed upon me a vast foundation of information and experience that FEW in this business can match.
My respect goes to Tom, a man who knows his stuff.

I just picked up a pair of Quads (that's chameleons for all you snake people) from Tom a couple weeks ago. I spent about an hour talking with him face to face. Very honest and real person (a rarity in Los Angeles ) with a vast, down to earth knowledge of animals. I would not hesitate to do business with him anytime in the future. Two thumbs up.
