A little worried about the future for this kid... Actually, no I'm not, I'm worried about multiple Torts in his care right now. We found him flipping a Pyramid Shell'd Sulcata on a Facebook group last night. I, of course hammered away at the kid for it.

Just to find out that he has had it less than 30 days through his own posts. Furthermore, he is now trying to flip the rescued Tortoise from the Phx Herp Society for $200... and it SPECIFICALLY STATES in a contract that he signed, it goes back to them if ever unwanted...

They are not to be resold! That's it! I wanted this up, as he started banning people immediately that were on to his antics and getting bolder and bolder with each post... The kid is apparently 15yrs old, so, I just want this to be a lesson for him, and a warning for the good people of the reptile community.

He doesn't seem like a quality character to me based on what I've seen him into... Thank you for your time; I, of course, didn't bother with screenshots, so, my rep will have to hold weight... :)
 
He admitted to using a false name and information... Fwiw. This kid can not be any good! My fueled fire is now coming from his funny PM's to me. I want this out in the air. CLEARLY SHOUD BE IN RED! But, I'm trying to turn a new leaf these days! (Keyword: TRYING)
 
Let's see screenshots of the PMs. So far, we do not know how he keeps his critters, and buying and selling is not a bad thing if the critters have good care and vet visits when needed and if the sale is honest.
Would like to see proof of the false ID on adoption, perhaps you can get the Herp Society to say something about their adoption process.
 
If you are asking me to stop requesting some proof of your allegations, you know that is not going to happen.
You are perfectly within your rights to allege what you wish.
It is important to nail scammers, but just as important not to nail those who may be innocent.

You say you have PMs. Post them.
 
He's coming in... Sorry to do that to you Lucille, but had to! The good stuff was in the thread I am banned from. Jerron is coming in soon. Patience is going to pay off on this one... Sabali!
 
Sorry to do that to you Lucille, but had to
You had to be rude when I asked for simple proof of your allegations? When you mentioned but would not post the PMs?

I look forward to what Jerron has to say.

Your posting as if you missed reading the entire initial post... Wait'll this kid comes in and bombs this!
 
Forgive the spelling error pretty please... Fauna and Apple software is conflicting this morning. Or, I would have posted some screenshots, some people will/should chime in later with some good stuff.
 
Here's proof of the sale if a rescued Sulcata. Not even in his possession 30 days admitted by him...

Sorry I have no idea how to take a pic of the conversation so I copied and pasted it. This is my conversation with Jerron AFTER he banned me from his group. Apparently the thread is down. Bottom line I was not disrespectful in any way.....I was just saying that I thought the fact that he was flipping a reptile that he "rehabbed" for a month was wrong. I also pointed out that when you have ppl in this industry with a lot of experience and knowledge....if they offer help its good to listen to them and be respectful. Anyways I was banned and blocked. Its ok....but still....just the picture alone above shows that he is not very educated in taking care of torts...feeding it fruit messes with the PH balance

Are you kidding me? You were beyond rude to me and my passion for reptiles. You had no right to be in that conversation as well as others.
Michelle Bell

I said nothing disresptful to you other than to be honest with you as to how I felt.

You are young....I have seen it a million times. You might not like how some come across....but when you are dealing with ppl from the industry that have a lot of knowledge...it is best to show a lil respect
Jerron Helldorfer

If you don't show me respect, I won't give you respect back.

End of story.

You are not automatically given respect in this industry...you earn it
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:02pm
Jerron Helldorfer

I should have just as much respect as you get from other persons.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:02pm
Michelle Bell

really? Because you put years into this...paving the way for others

That would be like me saying some of the fore fathers of this industry should show me respect out of the gate. Respect is earned.....

Yes, just because you are older doesn't mean you are any better than an infant or a teenager.
Michelle Bell

its not better....its knowledge

that you gain from learning over years and years
Jerron Helldorfer

I've been apart of this "industry" for almost 4 years now. And you don't see me getting any respect.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:05pm
Michelle Bell

wow...4 years. Talk to me when you have a couple of decades
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:06pm
Jerron Helldorfer

And I still don't care. You were being rude, not showing respect for what I was saying or doing. And just butting into the conversation you were not invited to was rude.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:07pm

so funny....well have fun with your lil group. Get ready to not have much of one
Jerron Helldorfer

I'm not trying to be funny. I'm telling the truth. That's okay, we are 200 members strong.

Plenty of people in that group, I would say in my opinion, are very knowledgeable and very respectful to the upcoming generation of reptile enthusiasts. And then there's people like you. Pushing them away. Saying they should get rid of their reptiles, or not being able to own one or care for one.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:11pm
Michelle Bell

Ok...you go with your 4 year self. And anyone that thinks its ok to break a contract and rehab a tort for a month only to resell ...not someone I would like to deal with.

I be sure to put your name out there on my site...along with my page. Over 500 followers....lmao
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:12pm
Jerron Helldorfer

I did not break any contract whatsoever. There was a mistake in his beliefs/findings and he respectfully apologized for his mistake.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:13pm
Michelle Bell

Oh ok...so its ok then to flip a rescue
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:13pm
Jerron Helldorfer

The contract he was talking about, was about adopting a desert tortoise in which I did not adopt from PHS.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:13pm

again ok to flip a rescue
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:14pm

You said it yourself.

Right there. I have proof.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:14pm

what ok to flip a rescue...lmao.....I dont do that. Apparently you think its ok
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:15pm
Jerron Helldorfer

I don't think that's okay. You said it yourself right up there. ^^
Michelle Bell

Oh jesus...really. Ok you cut and paste that somewhere....lol. Everyone knows I do NOT agree with what you are doing

grow up

Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:17pm
Jerron Helldorfer

Why don't you grow up, and stop arguing with a 15 year old kid. You are the idiot. For fighting with a 15 year old kid.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:18pm

lmao....hey that is a great tag line.

Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:19pm
Jerron Helldorfer

Yea totally, because I like to show people that 40 year old women, like to argue with 15 year old kids over something the obviously know..? Haha

Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:20pm

Michelle Bell

I would rather be a grandma....even though I am not....then a snot nose kid that thinks he deserves respect because he was born

that is unethical with rescued reptiles
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:22pm
Jerron Helldorfer

Hey so do you. You think you deserve respect because you are an "elder" and you have been in the reptile "industry" for soooo long.
Michelle Bell
4/16, 10:22pm
Michelle Bell

Nope...not from my elders that have done it longer
Jerron Helldorfer
4/16, 10:23pm
Jerron Helldorfer

Well, you certainly act like it.

Just grow up, and don't stoop down to a 15 year olds level.
 
Easy fix. If he lied about his age and has violated the adoption contract, contact PHS with the info ... and this.
