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.

That is what I thought, but I have never produced so I couldn't say for sure.
Thanks

What does NFL stand for???
Not for long. Hopefully that's the case with these chumps staying in the biz. BT's...with eggs in a year. Puppy dog tame alligators pictured with a dog. I'm almost embarrased for them.

THE SAD THING,,,
I guess to me the sad thing is,, These people are putting such blatant lies in their ads ,,, It really shows they don't know one thing about reptiles,,, Everything captive born,, and the BT laying eggs just takes the cake,,,
So i wonder how well there husbandry is..?
Also if i were producing some of the animals they say they are i would proudly post pics of the parents the eggs,, and the babies,,, But they have resorted to taking pictures from others to use as there own,,, Yep sure seem to be something very fishy here,, like a sardine factory fishy,,, Just a shame uninformed "buyers" are being taken by such blatant scam artists,,, this is truly a "buyer beware" seller,,,,

They were posting madagascan big head turtles from a pic I TOOK for Mario at Zoological Imports. I helped Mario sell these turtles to a good friend of mine. I figured he might have been sent the pic by Mario as a pic of animals they wanted to buy but they ended up brokering them>? Or trying to, well to make stories short, they kept reposting for WEEKS after I had my friend buy them.
They also stated the turtles ate goldfish of all sizes when those turtles wont fed on anything but pellets.
They just make up info to spice up ads. Not good practice if you ask me.
If i brokered an animal I would minimally offer right information , and only ad things If i saw something personally, etc.
But to make up stuff to spice something up isnt right if you ask me.

Hi, we are intrested in any malaysian or indonesian King cobra you might have. We prefer a dark brown one if possible. Please email me with pics of what you have at: beardedpets@yahoo.com ........thanks
What if these scammers start selling venomous to the unsuspecting public? I shudder at the thought.
Cheers,

I contacted them last month about some het....
for albino ball pythons. When I asked for linneage I was told that they did not know the linneage because they buy from wholesalers from Mexico to Canada. I told them that I thought it was rather odd that they did not know the linneage and they responded by telling me "if you want linneage go to Macy's, we are like Walmart. Good prices. Good quality. No Name Brands!" I was like, yeah right! I have the email saved somewhere but am unable to locate it right now. These guys are SHADY!

They had an ad up for Gaboon vipers, so they ARE selling venomous. They said they'd "only ship through Delta (so don't ask)" but... STILL.
