I bought Baby Bearded Dragons from Paul, the first one was late due to the USPS taking 7 days to deliver, and he arrived dead. Paul did replace the baby, but it was always sickly, and upon sending in the fecals to WSU vet school, we found that he had high levels of coccidia 10,000+ in his slide and 15,000+ salmonella in his slide. Upon treating the baby he had to be force fed for 4 months, and never grew. Although Paul did offer to replace it, I did not want another dragon with salmonella. It is my concern that he has not done any treatment to remedy this problem, and is still selling sick babies. I have studied extensivly about reptile salmonella, and there is only one way to treat it, with nutribac, when it becomes an infection. As normal gut flora it will never go away, but will become opportunistic when other infections are present (like coccidia). So let the buyer beware, and ask if he has tested or treated his breeders lately, or you too may have a $300 vet bill on that cute little baby.

hi

I have bought 7 adult and sub adult veiled chameleons Paul McIntosh and they where in great shape! I think he is fine to buy from and will buy more from him. I have never bought bearded dragon from him though. From the business that I have done with Paul I think he is a good guy so talk to him about this! I think he will work it out and if he does not then let me know!
I hope this helps, Eric Russell (AKA: ericR)
