    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....

Mike.....why dont you call this guy I had the Axanthic sold to and ask him why when I talked to him 3 days ago.......

he said to me " I thought it was one of Tracy's"

And then ask him if he purchased it or not ! because he didnt.
 
EVAN,
THEY HAVE NO NEED FOR IT AT ALL HUH? EVERY BALL PYTHON IMPORTER ALSO REALIZES THAT THE LATER BALLS ARE IN WORSE CONDITION AS WELL. AND IT WAS NEEDED FOR THESE ANIMALS BECAUSE THEY WERE DYING-SIMPLE ONCE THOSE SNAKES DRINK ANY WATER IN AFRICA YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH KISS THEM GOODBYE WITHOUT ANY ANTIPARASITICS OR AM I WRONG? ISNT THAT THE REASON THAT BALL PYTHONS START OFF IN APRIL MORE EXPENSIVE COMING INTO THIS COUNTRY AND DROP TO RIDICULOUS PRICES BECAUSE THE LAST BATCHES ARE USUALLY THE BAD ONES.

MIKE BROOKS
 
The fact that I asked Mike 6 or 7 questions/topics and he spoke to only 1 and strongly to that 1 really makes me think that he is trying to avoid answering my others and taking focus away from them. How about it Mike? You told me to know what I am talking about, so how about setting me straight?

YOU said YOU soaked the balls in a COCKTAIL.

You did not dispute the size or price issues on your site.

How about the thread you had your girlfriend post?

You are dismissing all of us and saying it is only important that the animals are dead. How about facing the fact that you might have killed them with your "treatment" of soaking them in a cocktail. Please don't tell us again that your vet individually treated them. What would he have charged you to one by one put a syringe down the throat of 700-800 snakes? How much time would that have taken? You told us one thing now you are completely changing it.

It looks like you should straighten these out for us.

ALEX ARE WE GONIG TO BRING THESE OTHER PEOPLE INTO THIS. I PERSONALLY DONT CARE BUT I DONT KNOW IF YOU WANT THESE PEOPLE BEING MAD AT YOU. THIS SNAKE WAS OFFERD TO YOUR GUY BEFORE HAND AND HE KNEW EXACLTY WHAT THE SNAKE WAS. YOU SHOULD CALL ME I DONT WANT ANYONE GETTING IN TROUBLE FOR THINGS SAID ON HERE. I THINK IT WOULD BE IN OUR BOTH BEST INTEREST NOT TO TALK ABOUT THAT HERE BECAUSE OF REASONS YOU KNOW.\

MIKE
 
Mike, you are wrong. The reason they get cheaper is because they hatching in larger quantities in Africa. The reason they do worse here is because they are not watered in Africa or here by the importers. They die from dehydration. Have you ever dealt with imported shipments of ball pythons? No? I thought not. I have. So don't tell me. Juveniles and adults need to be treated for internal parasites because they have lived in the wild their entire life. Farmed babies are hatched in compounds, packed, and then shipped out of the country.

Also, again, you do not treat stressed, hatchling animals with flagyl as it is too potent for them.

Also, how about you answer some other questions pal?
 
mike

Tell me for the last time........WHY DID YOU NOT ONCE EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER MENTION TO ME THAT YOU WERE AND HAD BEEN TREATING THESE BABIES WITH MEDS ???????

Why the heck would you treat babies that were dieing of mouth rot with flagyl, panacure or any other type of dewormer ??????
 
EVAN IF YOU READ THINGS CORRECTLY I NEVER SAID HE TREATED EVERY SNAKE. AND I CLEARED THAT UP EARLIER, IM NOT TRYING TO DISMISS YOU OR RUN AWAY FROM YOU EITHER MY FRIEND NOT AT ALL. WHEN I GET ANSWERS YOU WILL I DONT SIT THERE AND WATCH MY VET DO EVERY SINGLE THING. SORRY MAYBE I SHOULD FOR YOU AND ALEX NEXT TIME. NOW REFRESH MY MEMORY ABOUT THE POST FROM MY G/F?

MIKE
 
I THINK IT WOULD BE IN OUR BOTH BEST INTEREST NOT TO TALK ABOUT THAT HERE BECAUSE OF REASONS YOU KNOW.

Ahhhh... It's one of those deals. Could it just be good ol' KARMA kicking you in the A$$????
 
Mike, could you also please explain to me why there is a thread on this board, started by your girlfriend, pretending to be a satisfied customer posting a positive comment about you?
Correction. It was started by someone else. Then it was answered by a girl pretending to be a customer. The thread can be found here.
http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/for...tid=54420&highlight=Mike+AND+Brooks#post54420

As far as other things about what i do for a living is irrelevant.
You are absolutely correct. It IS irrelevant. But if in an earlier thread you say you only work with your snakes full time and are now chaning your story to working full time plus doing snakes. it becomes relevant. it shows you were lying or are lying.

Unfortunatley the other thread went bye bye with the data base error. Because everyone here remembers you posting how YOU were treating your own BABY snakes with metronidazole. And now in this thread you are saying only the vet treated them. How is this pertinent. Again it shows that you are lying.

The fact that a positive post was made from your computer pretending to be your satisfied customer also shows a pattern. A pattern of lying.

In your post you clearly said the picture was from today. You came back to correct yourself and said 35 yesterday plus 20 today.

The amount of Decay on those ball pythons is way too much. Maybe you are frying them. Check your temperatures. And quit soaking them in flagyl. And Don't tell me it is because they were outside since yesterday. Your temps are between 60 and 70. That is way too cool to let those things get that rotten
 
FORGET THE OTHER GUY, WHAT DOES THAT AD SAY ON IT. JOLLIFF AXANTHIC CORRECT? JUST ANSWER ME.

AND EVAN NOT ALL THOSE ANIMALS WERE GIVEN MED SO WHY ARE THEY ALL DYING EVEN THE ONES WIHTOUT IF THEY DONT NEED IT?

ALEX REMEMBER YOU SOLD OTHER SNAKES TO MY BUDDY AS WELL. YEAH THEY'RE ALL DYING AS WELL WITH NO MED OR ANYTHING. HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT THEN?

MIKE
 
Thank you Mr. Luna. You did all my work for me and I am grateful.

Mike, I have no problem with you and Alex going at it over a deal. It is simple, if you choose to keep live animals you will at some point get dead animals. That is how this life thing works. What is really pissing me off is that you have been caught in lies here, very blatant and obvious to everyone as proven by half a dozen people pointing it out to you, and yet you can't admit it. You have to keep on telling lie after lie. You screwed up man. Just face it.
 
THAT IS A GIRL I USED TO DATE FROM UPSTATE WHEN I WENT TO SCHOOL UP THERE. AND THATS HOW WE MET IN THE FIRST PLACE. DO YOU SEE ANY NEGATIVE FEEDBACK ON THIS SITE? NO, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE-WHY I CANT HAVE A GIRL I USED TO BE CLOSE TO PUT UP SOMETHING BECAUSE SHE DID IN FACT BUY THINGS FROM ME? I HAVE NOTHING HIDE. THIS IS WHAT YOUR TRYING TO DIG UP? COME ON DO BETTER THEN THAT, AND YEAH I GOT THOSE SNAKES ON THE FOREMAN GILLER.

MIKE
 
I have to back Evan fully regarding his concerns over the use of flagyl. I agree 100% with his statements in that respect.

It is a godly medicine, in its ability to destroy life as easily as it could save it. It's powerful stuff and even a small overdose will likely cause permanent damage to various organs including the brain.

It won't however, rot the bodies of the animals as demonstrated in those pictures. Nothing short of long term neglect could do that, in my opinion.
 
EVAN THE ONLY THING YOU THINK YOU CAUGHT ME IN AS A LIE IS ABOUT THE MEDS. WHAT ELSE DO YOU THINK IM TELLING YOU THAT IS A LIE? ANSWER THE QUESTION ABOUT MY AD ON THE AXANTHIC? YOU BOTH STILL HAVENT ANSWERD IT HAVE YOU. THEN LETS SEE WHO WAS LYING.

MIKE BROOKS
 
Mike, "binning" those snakes as you have, losing 3-5% per day is not unusal. No explanation is really needed. Some came in sick. You "binned" them, and the sick ones got others sick, and so on and so forth.
 
Mike

Not once in this tread or the other thread did I ever once bring up anyone else but me and you.

But you're the one who keeps posting stuff like......

"ALEX REMEMBER YOU SOLD OTHER SNAKES TO MY BUDDY AS WELL."

"AND TELL ME THAT GUY WHO WAS BUYING DIDNT KNOW IT WASNT?"

Whos the one bringing other people into this ?????
 
Mike, again you go to lesser issues. The "thing about the meds" is the most important thing because you outright have repetaedly lied about it and changed your story several times now and it is extremely important as that could very well be the reason the animals are dead. If you were any kind of a stand up guy you would at least acknowledge that as a possibility. I really don't give a rats ass what strain the axanthic was. I very clearly posted that Alex said one thing and you said another. I thought that was clear enough for a retarded tree frog to follow. Do you need more? How about the "sold for $10,000" then smart guy?
