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.

Yeah, yeah CMB ... McCain's a real stand-up guy. Here are a couple of previous posts.

Even though those snakes may have arrived alive and warm, his shipping method reeked. A freakin sock and panty hose? They weren't even new & unused!
His "people skills" reek. He comes off racist, egomaniacal and completely incapable of conducting himself in a mature, professional manner.
He may produce some decent stock, but is it worth trying to deal with someone who (as CMB/Christopher Brown stated) "maybe has a screw loose"?
NO. It doesn't matter how many years he's been breeding/vending.
You don't screw customers, you don't go psycho, you don't use bullying tactics to cover up inadequacies, incompetence or insecurities. Over the years here we've seen the good guys go down in flames all due to their inflated egos and greed. McCain is just another example.

Jennifer Harrison, thank you very much for your post, I can only imagine how hard it must of been for you, I have to say there for a moment i thought of keeping this quiet and not make a big deal about it too, however the excuses for the 60g female was unbelievable and the name calling did it for me, as a snake keeper my self I wish him well for sake of the animals and the dogs too.

How do people like this continue to exist? This guys is a zero, from husbandry to sales practices. I almost can't believe how things were shipped.

Has it been mentioned that he might be purposefully done this in spite of the argument before the snakes were shipped?

I did not realize he had a long list of bad transactions. Alls I saw was a massive reaction to a bad shipping job and a bad mouth and it didnt make sense to me completely because the animals were healthy. A little clearer now.

Somebody, please get professionals over there to assess his situation! Give an address to this 'farm.'
Lets do the right thing for the animals this time! Please! He can't be doing well, and neither are these animals!

The personal attacks ESPECIALLY in a public forum are not called for. I don't care how many snakes you've produced or who you are, you do not treat a customer in that fashion. Remember that it's not the hundreds of good experiences that can make you, it's the one bad one that can break you. I have seen this posting on instagram, facebook and twitter by different people. There's no flying under the radar these days..Gotta love the BOI..

wow........ I could only skim his posts because they were pretty bad. But all I can really get out of them is "I have MORE snakES and MORE money than YOU AND thereFORE I AM BETTER!"
It appears that his line of thinking, is that if he can yell louder than you, he wins. If he has all of this money and snakes and is so much better than all of us, then why does the description of his snakeroom sound like something from a 3rd world country?
Anthony, I probably have a tenth of the snakes you do, but more high dollar snakes doesn't magically make you the bees knees. My actual snakeroom and the equipment inside of it far out-values the reptiles it houses in both dollar value and importance. I consider my reptile room to be my life's work... the ultimate expression of my passion. I try to create a beautiful environment that not only functions well but is a true addition to the household and a place of warmth and happiness. If you can't properly care for your snakes (and your dogs) you need to get some serious help. Without the proper equipment, substrates, feeding, etc, you aren't a reptile hobbyist, or anybody worthy of the title "breeder" or "keeper". What you're doing is called hoarding. And it appears you have some serious anger issues. You need therapy if you think that any of your reactions and the way you keep your animals is okay. I mean heck, ball pythons are one of the easiest snakes to house and keep, and feed. Our 3 BP's poo maybe once every 2-3 weeks. They don't ask for much. They don't eat much. What on earth would you do with a collection like mine where some of the snakes poo DAILY and eat every 3-4 days?
