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.

Jon Allen, Reptiles Revolution
Jon Allen sold me a sick Burm at the Wasatch Reptile Expo in May, 2017. I immediately contacted him and let him know that I wanted to return the snake. He tried to claim the snake was just stressed from the show. It wasn't, and I've since spent over $300 in vet fees trying to get the snake over the respiratory infection that it had when I purchased it. Jon has since ignored all my messages. He guarantees his snakes to be healthy, but this guarantee is backed by nothing. He's dishonest and shouldn't be dealt with. If he wishes to dispute any of this review, I'd be happy to upload our text messages and my vet bills. Do not make any deals with Jon Allen or Reptiles Revolution from Utah.

Please post the text messages and vet bills, and let Jon know this post is here. I hope your snake is doing better.

This is a classic case of buyers remorse. He bought the snake at the show and said it was an animal he had been looking for and couldn't pass up. I produced this snake and had it since it was born(6.23.14). It's also worth noting that I have produced and raised a few thousand snakes(including roughly 300 Burmese pythons) in the past 12 years. In my care the animal in question never had a single issue. The buyer contacted me 3 days after the show saying it had a respiratory infection. I advised him that burmese can get stressed very easily leading to R.I.'s and to raise her temps to mid nineties, raise her humidity and let her settle in some. He immediately demanded a refund. I reached out to him and even offered the meds that I have used in the past to treat R.I.'s and offered to administer them for him. He declined, again demanding only a refund. I'm pretty sure he bought her, took her home and had a family member who did not want the snake in the house. No matter how many times I offered to treat her he declined because he only wanted to get money back. All animal sales are final for this very reason. We cannot be held liable for people who have buyers remorse(wife upset about the purchase, forgot to pay a bill, whatever. It's unfortunate but it happens in the reptile world all the time) and not to mention what type of care or lack thereof happens after an animal is sold! I was never told about this post hence the delay in my response!

I wouldn't worry overly much about this, he posted no proof of vet bills or any proof.
