    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Bad Guy Bad Experience with Carson Phelps of Herps Etc

Perhaps someone else could answer one of the questions I asked Carson. Is it common for someone to be incubating alot of eggs in October?
 
I have question for u Chris

Do u breed at all

And the answer

It all depends when u breed and when females take etc

Late clutches early clutches double clutches etc etc

I'm not sure how many clutches he had I was told 80 percent of his clutches went bad

So that brought me back to square one

I can answer that, seeing as I know his name from the corn snake forums, and he was known for having tequila sunrise projects for the last few years. He does breed corns.
To be honest, I kind of felt that was a flawed question to focus on as well, though. A guy in south Florida could aim for November hatchlings, I suppose. It isn't common, but it could happen. From my perspective, the most fishy part of this whole thing was your laid back attitude about being ripped off. I'm just one guy on the Internet, but a Bad Guy thread for Steve Miles would go... miles.

Not recently, but have bred colubrifs in the past. Mostly Pits. Funny how you answered the only non threatening question I asked after taking you out of that equasion. Fascinating. How about the other questions? You've had lots of time to prepare and I know you viewed them all.

What's the questions

In the quotes braincell. What is your attorney's name that sent a letter to Steve? What adress was it sent to? What are the contact numbers for Steve? If you don't know, your lawyer will have records. I'll call him for you if you'd like. I know how busy you are.
 
2nd question
I was basing the 1 year for the breeding season and eggs hatching of the balls
And the time frame on the agreement

The agreement was after the scaleless corns was a no go

The I would give the OP spark ball morph and some co don het ultramel balls

Neither balls breed last season but are breeding now this season

So we came up with banana etc etc which I have here and are ready to go

I received a phone call today and sold the banana for a chunk of cash and called the OP and said the money on its way no snakes

Which ill wire in the am

Try not to be elusive and please focus. You did not come close to answering the question. I'll dumb down a hair. What made you realize it was actually 22 months, which is still inaccurate?

Lol. How old are you? Forget it Carson. Your antics are here for all to view. You should be ashamed. Your future in the herp community will be seriously questionable. Perhaps non existant before long. Take care and good luck.

Someone who is this laid back about being ripped off could mean they weren't ripped off at all. He might be happy he got his cut of the deal and who cares if he lost the rest of the other person's money to the 3rd party. Most people would have been rather loud over losing that much money - especially money that really didn't belong to them seeing as they were merely acting as a broker and hadn't earned their cut yet. Honest broker would have pried the money out of the hand of the 3rd party to return to the 1st party... or refunded out of their own pocket and then concentrate on trying to get 3rd party to own up or just eat the loss.
