    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.

    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....

thats all you have to say about me really and laura is my wife she gave me the accounts as a birthday gift years ago thats why her name is on the account maybe instead of making that comment you coulda called and asked me instead of making it appear to be something it isnt
 
well whoevr this person is they wanted me to send money through paypal as gift and i have a hard enough time buying hets from an unknown source so i couldnt do it... so needless to say im still looking for another adult het pied female for my male pied i did pick up some albinos from the herp vault last night anyone done buisness with them?
 
I know that email to be Artie as well. Dont know who laura is.
ive made a few snake purchases from him but they were all local meet ups and nothing to do with hets
 
Perfect...and since burmbreeder5 is viewing this thread right now, I'll just post my message here: Artie, it doesn't work like that here. Laura can't "give" you an account; and the name in the profile has to be the name of the person using the account. Contact WebSlave, and request that your profile be amended to show your name...and do it before you post any more ads (or comment here). Failure to do so in a timely manner will result in your ads being removed, and could ultimately lead to a loss of posting privileges here
 
Artie, this thread isn't on me, it's about you. Where did I throw dirt? I just let people know who they were dealing with. Sorry you are so upset over this.
 
laura

i am laura i set all internet dealings period there i post all ads answer all emails my husband deals with all animals shipping and meeting if anyone has a problem with that then that is there problem

As far as bill z what was the problem was it getting an albino ball baby for 200 or the fact that you didnt meet me ?

secondly if we are talking about 2 different names on accounts ROB

why is it that when you post animals matt ****y posts the same animals for sale are you a couple or just both selling the same animals?
 
Laura/Artie....not sure why you are attempting to redirect at me, but I will gladly tell you that Matt dropped off a few females last year that I bred to my males and we co owned the clutches together. I don't know why you feel the need to answer to you because I posted your name...no need to be secretive, maybe the publicity will help you move some animals.
Here is an article that ran in Newsday last September.

A Bay Shore man was fined $5,000 after wildlife investigators caught him selling snakes on Craigslist and launched a sting that led to the discovery of a 14-foot breeding female python in his car, state officials said Tuesday.
After seeing Arthur Davidson's ads about Burmese pythons, agents from the state Department of Environmental Conservation and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service faced many "twists and turns" to gain his trust, DEC officials said.
It's illegal to sell certain wild animals as pets in New York, DEC said, but the fast growth rate of Burmese pythons, among the largest snake species, have made them popular in the United States.
A DEC officer posing as a buyer met Davidson at an Oakdale parking lot July 13 and bought 23 juvenile pythons for $2,400, state officials said.
As soon as the sale was sealed, agents rushed in and found Davidson had a 14-foot, 100-pound breeder, a female, in his car, along with five more juveniles, DEC said.
Last week, Davidson, of 1149 Hyman Ave., pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of selling wild animals as pets and was fined $5,000 by Judge Gaetan B. Lozito in First District Court in Central Islip.
Davidson, 42, reached by phone Tuesday, hung up after being asked about the snakes. "I don't know anything about them," he said. Davidson works for the Long Island Rail Road, but he has been breeding reptiles a long time as a side business, the DEC said.
Three agents tried but could not uncoil the 14-foot-long python, according to the DEC. The snakes are banned for interstate transport by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
In New York, the DEC requires a permit to possess the snakes, officials said, but certain python breeds are legal.
Burmese pythons can grow up to 22 feet long and weigh up to 200 pounds. They kill their prey by constriction.
They are native to Southeast Asia, where they're hunted for their skin and meat, leading to a large drop in the population of wild pythons, the DEC said.
Pet pythons released into the wild have displaced native species in regions such as the Florida Everglades, the DEC said.
The DEC said the snakes have been donated to educational and research facilities with proper permits that have DEC permits to possess the animals.

You read my mind, Rob! I was just going to ask if that was the same dude that was busting in the sting. I remembered because it was all over the different herp forums.
 
laura

that is my husband stop confusing the two so if you want to keep this up as far as we were told you are the one who called the cops on that incident as far as you posting this makes me think you did ok now then what about you dead hidden gene woma that came back to life after you said it was dead you are liar and and flipper who has ther own issues does the town know you hve snakes in you paint store?
 
Laura/Artie - by your own admission, you are in this together...so what Artie does in the snake world is not isolated from Laura. As such, the post about Artie's involvement with illegal reptiles is very much relevant in a post about the burmbreeder5 account.
 
Anybody else notice that Laura and Artie type in a nearly identical manner?
 
Artie/Laura....seems like you're grasping at straws to make me out to be a bad guy. Good luck with that. All this anomisty over the fact that I let people know your name is a bit ridiculous. Kind of funny you think I would call the cops..you posted Burmese pythons for sale on craigslist and didn't think the authorities would ever look there. I'm done here, if you want to redirect and slander me, you should probably start a new post or add to the one I currently have on the BOI. Best of luck to both of you.
 
laura

ok if this going to be it i am laura i deal with internet bs so i will address the burm issue first off we have kept burms for many years before they were banned in ny granted when they were banned we should not have kept them but we did and we bred them many times we sold the babies out of state mainly a few in stae big crime you know burms are deadly to ny native wildlife

as the federal banned loomed in we sold off most of the adults we had one female that was gravid and couldnt ship before the ban so my guess is since rob starzman of long island was awrae of this and informed the dec .


the dec tried to get us to cross over to new jersey with them we were aware the price of that and didnt we meet them real close to robs store hmmmmmm isnt that funny any way we all know the took the snakes attempt to sell burms in ny over 1500 in cash felony o well

went to one court date arraingment one day walked out 5 k fine


you know anyuone who finished a felony case with one court date anywhere ?
it wat about the 5 k fine and where are those snake all killed by dec but not the adult female she doing birthday parties with local snake show sorry educational parties
