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.

He's one of the bigger breeders in Florida and doesn't do much retail, if any, I believe. I've never heard anything bad about him. I have some of his bp hets now but didn't get them directly from him.

Eugene is a great guy! He has been around forever! I bought a bunch of ball pythons from him everything went smooth and they were exactly how he stated them.

Positve Feedback
I recently purchased an 07' .1 Albino, and a 1475g CBB normal female from Eugene Bessette, of Ophiological Services. I travelled from Vero Beach to Gainsville to pick the animals up because I like to avoid shipping if at all possible. Eugene took the time to show me some of his collection, and around his great facility. He also spent about an hour talking with me, introduced me to his wife Cindy, and some of his employees who were very busy feeding animals and cleaning enclosures.
He has some great examples of many morphs, of several species. I was very impressed. Eugene and Cindy are very nice people and have a great crew. I would not hesitate to purchase from them again, and would highly recommend them.

Gene, is the man... A few years ago I spent a weekend at his place and him and Cindy are two of the most hospitable people I have ever met. He's been breeding reptiles for over 35 years or so and is a very stand up person.

I have known Eugene since around the late '70s, I think. Or maybe the early '80s. But a LONG time, anyway! He has always been one of the "movers and shakers" of the industry, often on the leading edge, even back when breeding herps was partly just a matter of luck. He has also been extremely active in the cooperative efforts between the reptile industry and our state fish and game dept., trying to develop rules we can more or less live with.
Although Eugene and Cindy breed A LOT of pythons, they still produce quite a few corns. I was just up to their place last Sunday and bought some newly hatched baby corns from them. They have quite a beautiful and large operation, lots of knowledge, and a great reputation. You will likely enjoy your dealings with them.

I bought an albino and a bee from Eugene in the past 6 months. Eugene and Cindy are great people and very hospitable. I would not hesitate to do business with them.
