    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Rob has been a complete nightmare to deal with. After selling me a very ill snake refused to refund me and started a tread on fauna bad mouthing me. I have documentation from a vet in austin experienced in reptiles that the snake is very ill, and it is not my fault. I would never buy from him again. His snakes are terrible.
 
your post is full of inaccurate info. I have asked you several times to show proof that the vet specializes in reptiles. You are a dismal failure of a reptile owner and you ruined a perfect snake!
 
The OP is the one to not deal with. His paperwork consists for a $60 price for the vet visit. There were no tests or diagnosis done for that snake.

This guy caused this snakes demise

If you have that proof I would love to see it. My understanding was that you wouldn't have it until tomorrow.
 
SO you started a bad guy thread about someone else with a lie? I wonder where this one is going to go...
 
Very sad that Rob now has a Bad Guy attached to his name when he did not even Bad Guy Thomas. What a headache.

Thats because I'm not. I just got a bad snake. How does that make be a bad guy? If you send me a defective animal? That would make ME a bad guy? Rob should have just taken the animal back in a easy manner. He deserves it because he could do this to anyone. It's obviously in his character.

Well, I have to think that anyone who's actually put the effort into reading and understanding the situation would see this thread for what it is: petty, baseless retaliation. The List has definitely gotten one name longer, unfortunately for the OP, his own name is the newest addition. If someone's going to come to a decision after simply reading a thread's title, I say that their business is probably no big loss. Who really wants to cater to the lowest common denominator?

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I only hope that when people research Rob, they read through the bad guy thread.
 
If he makes good I will write that he made good on his add. I took the snake to the vet.
 
So... the snake he sent me went bad in the time frame he posted on his advertisement. He did not honor his own agreement. He deserves it.
 
So after reading the first thread and now seeing this. The Op is out of line anyone can tell this by looking at what he says are racks in his video that he posted in the othe info thread. he shows no understanding about heatng and husbandry for the animals he has boughten off of this site. he bought a very pretty killer bee from laterob that may have had a slight head wobble issue. so here is of list of issues caused by thomas that may have caused the animals downturn:
1. the racks he had set up did not give a cool side any cool area would be two inch strip in the middle of cage with two hot spots.
2. he fed an animal a meal and then force fed the python by feeding tube, water, instead of soaking the animal in a tub. since he is not vet and only has two years of experiance owning snakes he very well could have done it wrong forcing water into the lungs.
3. he goes to a cut rate vet. that may or may not be an exotic animal vet where the vet looks at the animal and say it very sick and then allows the animal leave his care to go back into op's care and say he email the finding to him. that right there doesnt click since he took this type oath when he gradurated i qoute ""Being admitted to the profession of veterinary medicine, I solemnly swear to use my scientific knowledge and skills for the benefit of society through the protection of animal health and welfare, the prevention and relief of animal suffering, the conservation of animal resources, the promotion of public health, and the advancement of medical knowledge."
4. he used the internet to diagonosed the animal himself to have IBD which just show he has never experienced ibd before. and continued taking the snake in and out of tub causing more stress and possible damage.
5. the absolute lack of quarantine of new animals due to the fact that he decided to go on a spending spree instead of thinking of the animal well fare that he has..

in closing this OP is not well educated about the animals he keeps and shouldn't be sold to. he was the one that caused the down grade of the killer bee. Rob hutcheson offered to pay for the vet which actually makes his guarantee valid. so this is a sellers beware this op will come after you for things he causes due to hi own lack of knowledge. he should not be sold to.
 
So the snake ate 3 times before showing it being sick. I think you don't want to take responsibility for harming the snake and now trying to ruin another man reputation with lies.

Thats because I'm not. I just got a bad snake. How does that make be a bad guy? If you send me a defective animal? That would make ME a bad guy? Rob should have just taken the animal back in a easy manner. He deserves it because he could do this to anyone. It's obviously in his character.
 
I don't even know Rob and I would put my lot with him before ever associating with Tom. This is just immature. It doesn't really matter but may I ask how old are you Tom?
 
All I want is rob to follow his own advertisement. He is unprofessional to say the least. Thats just the first think I would expect from anyone trying to run a business. For him to start a thread about me, not give me the benefit of the doubt. That is just so unreasonable. I am glad I went to the vet and have further proof of the kind of animal i was provided. You can watch a video of it below.

After watching that video and he still does not want to offer a refund. I would not want to do business with this kind of person. He obviously just wants the money.
 
Your vet did nothing more than what you been spweing out.

Your vet proof is moot as theres no tests ran on anything. No blood work, not xrays/ultrasounds and no fecals done. Therefore this vet paperwork is not proof of anything but you took it there.
