First let me say that this threads purpose is to warn potential buyers that this fellow, Michael Nino, is trying to sell extremely sick and malnourished looking bearded dragons that he openly admitted to me he rescued as "close to deaths door" and is now trying to turn a profit with by misrepresenting them.
He had contacted me a few days ago about a possible trade for some boas I had posted in the trade section. Below is a copy from the email he sent me describing the bearded dragons he had to trade.
"i have 2 juvenile hypo trans from blood bank dragons stock. these go for $425.- on blood Banks List
I have several adult citrus, that fire up nicely when heated well.
I have a non marketed leusistic german giant x citrus white male I was keeping for breeding, he is from the Daichu line and will make incredible babies. I have 1 male with a scarlet throat I thought was a female until i put it with a male and saw it turn aggressive and puff up lol"
I asked for some pictures and these are what I got. Besides the fact that they all look incredibly malnourished and dehydrated, every one of them have either a missing limb, toes, huge kink, over 50% of their tail missing and all are living in filth which you can plainly see in the pictures.
I emailed him back politely describing all this and this is the email I got in response
"lol omg whata bunch of shit!
i take in animals that need attention and bring them from deaths door to pet quality. Nice setup, friend of the haters."
I would be wary of dealing with this guy, maybe Im wrong, I didn't actualy receive an animal from him so I can't say his sells poor quality animals but based on the pictures and his emails to me I would never consider buying or trading for anything from him. He greatly misrepresented all his animals to me which makes me believe he is to others. His email is [email protected] and goes by Malestrom on fauna.

Couldn't even CLEAN the cages? Disgusting.
detector go a little crazy. Based on the OP's pics, it'd appear that the guy's given up any pretense of rehabilitation. Looks like he's simply trying to flip his possibly ill-gotten animals, regardless of their health. Lame.
