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.

Big Daddy's Whole Sale and Big Dady Ball Room = Allen Belcher
May I first say that as much as I love my friends, my loyalties to the man I love and this industry are my top priority.
I received this email from an anonymous source this morning, and the email headers clearly show that Allen Belcher is masquerading Bid Daddy's Ball Room on K/S.

How did they test for IBD through bloodwork? I thought liver biopsies were the only true way to test for IBD?!?!? So what good would blood tests be?
How did he get the blood work done is 2 days? How did he get animals back and tested in 2 days? Gotta check my shoes again, 'cause something really stinks.
How do you not know what color the cards are? You don't look at them when you are handing them out?
Laura I think you should post this in the other thread also.

I'm pretty sure that somewhere there is a piece of paper, maybe more than one, that have these results written on them.
Of course, if you DON'T want to have the results made public, you would NOT mention faxes, emails, snailmail, PICKING IT UP IN PERSON, scams, er scans, none of THOSE methods would be practile. Would they?
I bet alan's eyes are brown now, and I bet they weren't when he was spawned.

Feel free to post a link between the two threads, however, I started this new thread to show the deception of Allen's business practices that was brought up in the existing thread by John Schmitt. Not to argue about the mode of transportation of Inclusion Body Disease.
Let's not forget boyz that Allen is listed as a vendor at the FIRE show in Orlando. Free to try to lure the public into a false sense of security that he is someone all together different.
Please keep it on the topic at hand and don't let this thread turn into the bad secpool that the other one has become!!!!

Sorry Sweetie!!! But are we only suposed to talk about the seperate business name in this thread? I guess I don't understand, if someone read this thread then they would only know he changes his business name.

They can diagnose IBD by bloodwork. They cannot RULE OUT IBD by bloodwork alone.
There is a simple blood test, that they stain, then look for inclusions. The fact that there are inclusions in the blood does not 100% mean that it is IBD, but it is highly likely.
The liver biopsies are not 100% but they are as close to 100% as you can get.
Just information.

I smell ...... sniff ..... sniff ..... FEAR . Seems someone was worried enough about the repercussions of public knowledge of IBD in his facility that he changed his biz name. Last I checked changing a name doesn't clear a building , room or anything else from diseases.
This is a quote from Allen in post #497 of the other thread...
Quote:
Big Daddy's Wholesale ... Now I have also been looked at as someone who loves the money but not the reptiles. You know truth is that is how it started for me. I saw the money that could be made. Very quickly though I found that if I did not enjoy this I would not make it in this industry very long. When I started doing this I had four companies. Now I have two and I have a passion for the reptiles that far exceeds my wildest dreams. I find myself calculating money in terms of that's 5 albino balls or a pair of super tigers, instead of another dollar in the bank.

Seems his love for the animals is so strong that he felt the burning need to keep selling animals under a different name without any conclusive test results to even remotely clear his facility. Do they sell Scammer Handbooks?
Post #413 is the first post bringing up IBD from Allen. Its dated 10 - 27 - 2006 , Big Daddy's Ballroom started shortly after that. Go figure. Heres the link to the thread , enjoy the posts from Mr Allen " I love the animals " Belcher.

I believe the banner he had over his tables at the FIRE show read, "Big Daddy's Warehouse".....
