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.

Well that snake and its siblings that are thriving have been gone for months. Like I said, the other fellow with a pair reported they are twice their size now and said all is great with them. I have received a dozen or more boas since then and all have been sold with no reports of any neurological or any symptoms or any issues with any types of diseases. Only great thanks so far.
Afraid of what Chuck? If you are implying I put a sick snake in a bag and shipped it and then gave the fellow back more than what he paid for it the next day, then that is just more evidence that you are a nut case.
The customer got more than his money back for the snake that was strangled so I am happy and pleased to show what an honest seller I am. Is that what's bothering you Chuck? You see me making great on a purchase and it just makes you upset doesn't it? Why are you so jealous Chuck? Go back and ask the mirror and tell us all what it says back. Are you still upset I called you a name or two?

Hey, why don't you post the photo so people can conclude for themselves if they believe its a case of strangulation? If its without any doubt that the snake was strangled it will clearly show in the photo. Isnt this a good idea or are you afraid?

Like you already know, the email is gone months ago and the snake was bloated as if something cut off its vent and gas built up in it. I don't know exactly what happened but strangulation was the best guess at the time. The guy got back 150 dollars and paid 125 dollars and he was happy and the other snake turned out great as did its siblings.
So if he was happy, and I am happy, why can't you be happy?
Is it because you are a miserable rotten person in general or did you take lessons from someone?

I am thinking, the reason some are not happy is that you posted in your own words tht the report showed IBD. If true, the arrangements with the individual buyer pale in comparison with the possible threat to the industry if a vendor who has that in his collection continues to ship other boids (you said you have subsequently sold dozens of boas) or if this customer trades/sells boids from his collection.
I think it is important that you post the report; and if as you say the snakes are well, it may be worth the cost to you to have them retested and post that report also.
Dan, I don't think folks here are hounding you for no reason, I genuinely believe that since you yourself said the report came back showing IBD, for the sake of the reptile community you should share what info you have until either the report is confirmed or a veterinarian explains that the report may have somehow been in error. To continue trading in boids after you had a report like that without a full investigation by a veterinarian, and if the report is in fact valid, may launch the disease so far and wide that containment may be increasingly difficult.
Post the report, Dan.

The animal looks like it didnt have a good shed, and to me dehydrated and also thin, the spine looks peaked. The skin looks flappy near the neck, but that could also be because of the dry skin that is stuck to it.
I dont see how a boa can have a bad shed like that unless it was kept in improper conditions, or a dry environment. ( understandably it happens sometimes to everyone sometimes) No attempt to remove the shed looks like it was made though, as well.

Just got off the horn with a vet who said that inclusion cells could be discovered in a snake that was strangled and later died from the trauma. High Five.

Who are you calling chicken little, there Dick Breath?
While we're on the topic of names, why do you choose the moniker of "Ravensgait"?
Do you see yourself as one of those unwelcome opportunistic carrion feeding pests, waddling along after filling it's belly with carrion?

I don't think I'm the only who is not so curious to know how another man could tell what another mans breath smells like after there had been a penis in it, but then I think your photobucket does show you were a navy man. It explains a lot.
