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.

lol... I suggest you read his terms page as well.... if you can stand it....
http://www.coldbloods.com/terms.htm#top
That has to be the most densely written double speak I have EVER seen on a herp site... tells me a lot... sounds like someone wants to be sure they have ZERO liability in ANYTHING. Smart, given what he is advertising for sale!

The link on his web sight says it all: THE BLOOD MONEY!

I honestly can't believe this guy thinks that this is ok to do. I went to his site, didn't read much of the terms, I just read enough to know I will never buy from them.

Subject: leopard geckos.
Just wanted to get a little more info on your leopard gecko eggs you are selling.
How do you ship them so they dont die during shipping?
Does it not make more sence to hatch the eggs and then sell the offspring?
Also wanted to know about the flawed leopard geckos. What is wrong with them and how bad are they flawed. What is your guarantee on the live/ safe arrival of the geckos and there eggs? I am interested to know, if you can get back to us asap.
Thanks again
Hi, J&J, hope the day is going great!!! Right now, we are working on a manner in which to ship leopard gecko eggs so that they arrive viable an extremely high percentage of the time. That said, as of now, the eggs are for pick-up or delivery only. We are always attempting "new" ideas, we have had successful trials with selling the eggs; therefore, placing it in motion on a grander scale. Both selling of eggs and hatchings work well for us; therefore, with the eggs, we are just trying new ideas. The flawed leopard geckos have nipped tails, toes, eyes and/or scars, other than that, they are just a regular old leopard gecko. With regard to shipping leopard geckos and any other reptile and/or rodent, the only method that we guarantee live arrival or is with Delta. That said, of the tons of reptiles that we have shipped via an other method, 99% of the time USPS Express Mail, we have only had one incident where a reptile arrived dead and that was a leopard gecko on a 100 degree day, where the other in the shipment survived.
Hope this helps out; nevertheless, like always, please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments that you may have.
Thanks again, have an incredible day,
Courtland

Thanks for posting that for us.
Just to make sure we don't get looked at as a bad guy for asking about the eggs, we only emailed him to find out his reasoning so we could post it on here. We have no interest in leopard gecko eggs, or leopards in general, as we sell snakes exclusively.Thanks
Josh

All common sense aside, why would you want to sell the eggs. If you are getting $15.00 ea for b-grade leo's why not hatch the eggs and sell them yourself. The only reason I could see is if there is a local school, give them a few eggs to hatch out for the kids but not sell them for $4.99 thats just stupid.As for delivery or pick up only, as you said what next, ship them usps for 3 day delivery and hope they make it?You can't possibly expect to ship eggs and have them arrive in viable healthy conditions, wheather its delta dash or usps.
