    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....

If that does offend you, then you need to adjust your sensitivity level. :rolleyes:

I think you need to adjust your reading comprehension level -- nowhere in my post did I mention anything about being offended by anything regarding the employee. :ack2:

Markers mean NOTHING regarding hets.

Some het pieds have them, some don't.
Some normals have them, some don't.

Looking at the "markers" will not tell you anything.
TSE anyone? Allen did the same as Chris so he can make more money off of a normal. What a comforting thought...

Allen your integrity has been compromised a long time ago. No matter what you say or do, your integrity will always be in question.
 
Hmmm.....since when is there a "marker" for het albino? I'd love to know what that looks like, please do share, Allen.

He probably painted his own.
 
Yeah, one that only shows up under UV light or something. Anyone who shines a UV light over their "het" will see the message "the only thing i'm het for is brown."

I verified that with your buddy ( Tegusforyou )on the phone while I was driving to the Sherriff's office to make my complaint. He admonished me for posting the pics but felt everything else was justified.It was a good conversation that lasted for around an hour. I found out a great deal that I didn't post as there was/are some that would not post against you but were willing to let the info flow for whoever wanted to hear it.

How odd your supporters will say one thing behind your back and something else to your face.
Kinda like how they flood here in droves , from that shock and awe inspiring vendor & customer list , to sing your praises loud and strong.

The bolded area should read " reverified ".
 
give some thought

I recently baught a butter female from allen and had no problems at all. She is very healthy and eats great. It is a female and is a nice butter. I dont own alot of snakes, infact I only own 3. I can say when I was feeding frozen thawed rats.My snakes wouldnt always eat. If I leave the rat in over night..it doesnt take much to make them smell like a thousand rotting bodies..It has made my entire home smell as if I killed a human or something. So I can imagine you can easily get alot of smell when feeding alot more snakes.
 
Allen Belcher Good Guy

I just recieved my first shipment from allen, all went very well, animals were shipped correctly on time, when he said they would be shipped. The snakes appear to be in excellent health. The Male butter I recieved is a smoker and pounded a rat crawler an hour after taking him out of the box and placing him in his new home. I obviously know there has been alot of negatives posted on Allen, mainly from the same group of people that post negative comments to numerous threads. I took a chance with him and I am very pleased that I did. Allen is helpful on the phone, always returns calls (at least mine) but most importantly delivered me (3) great looking animals at a fair price.
 
My experience was very much the same as yours. and see no problem in dealing with him in the future. I also notice it seemed to be the same people over and over. Cant make everyone happy all of the time.
 
I don't know but looking at the previous two threads on Fauna

The latest threads about Allen on BP.net (2 or 3) has many posters.

Just looking at those three threads out of seven or so that are available that sounds like enough individual posters to give anyone searching for varying opinions to draw a conclusion.
 
The two previous threads.. including the 1 with 200 or so pages appears to be the same posters with an incredible amount of time on their hands..and the majority of people with good dealings dont bother to post here. Which I am sure with him being a wholesaler there are thousands of customers.

Dude, what did you do....flip to the "Credits" page of the Scammers and Scumbags Handbook Vol. 2 and pick out who you were going to buy from there? :nonod:

Unfortunately as you have seen, posting a good guy thread on someone not liked by certain folks here is just stirring the pot and ultimately making things worse, not only for the seller, but the thread starter as well. Most of these people attacking any seller like this with no real honest dealing with them, all he say, she say, are just wanting to take down another competitor in the business!
It's also the reason you do not see too many negative threads on other sellers, anyone posting a negative thread on a well liked member of the community by some, will be ripped apart for doing so.
It's all politics, sales and market shares with 90% of these threads and posts. It's a shame, but the truth. This is also why most members of all these forums rarely post, including myself. When it comes to these situations, you're either part of the madness or against it, and those who are on the sidelines. This is especially true with regards to Ball pythons and the way the market has tanked and left quite a few pissed off people. Everyone seems to be kicking and clawing for that same $1.00 being spent! Anytime they can slander or eliminate the competition, regardless of right or wrong, it's how some seem to make up for the loss of sales!
Anyways, just wanted to let you know that not everyone in the reptile community agrees with all this, but we are the minority or actually the unspoken majority! What they do with all this fighting is really more hurt than good, every newbie that reads a thread like that feels they want no part of this community, and not because of the so called "bad guy".
Cat,
Have you ever done business with Allen? If not then you are one of the many malicious posters with too much time on your hands.
How many of those post's mentioned are you putting in your worthless opinion and personal dislike for Allen? If you have done business with him I missed your post where you had a negative experience.
You go in every thread that somebody starts giving positive feedback about a transaction with a seller that you do not like, and post libel attacks about the seller and the thread starter.
However, You came to the defense of a seller recently who was advertising animals for sale from a collection that had just had a deadly infectious disease wipe out a large part of the collection, including the sire of the animals offered for sale. There were many inconsistency's in the majority of the sellers post's defending selling these animals. I believe you were even purchasing one of the animals, weren't you?

If someone has credible information about a dealer and wants to offer it here despite having made not transaction with the seller personally (perhaps due to said information), why not present it?

As far as Cat's defense of another seller w/ a deadly disease, can you post a link or provide any quotes or specifics? I must have missed it and it does sound surprising coming from her.
 
Cat's Meow

Cat, Do you get personal satisfaction out of inputting your worthless two cents everywhere. You don't know me, you haven't done business with me. This is twice in two days that I have tried to lay out the truth and tell people about my personal experience regarding recent transactions. Both of them by the way went very well. Then here you come, posting your BS, (I don't care what you have to say) If you really want to talk shit about people then start up your own thread. What is wrong with you? were you tormented as a child or something or do you just like to sit there behind the safety of your computer and talk shit about everyone. Grow up!

Yet another frustrated newbie jackass potty mouth.

If anyone needs to grow up its YOU.
 
Still the Same

Incredible, this is why no ones posts! Here you have this member (Get Sum) who does not know any better and decides to post about his "actual" transaction with a seller as so did others.
Simply because the seller he bought from is not liked on this site by some, the buyer has been harassed, insulted and pushed to no end! Others who have "actually" dealt with the seller have also come out to post positive as well and they too have been called idiots and harassed! I bet if someone came out talking negative and supporting their BS, they would embrace that member and exclaim, "there it is!"
How can you expect people to come forward and post, when this is what goes on and it's the same people over and over. How can you expect people to post facts, then if the facts are not to the mobs liking they are thrown out and beat up? It's either you are with us, or you are wrong and an ahole as well!
 
My thoughts exactly

Robert, I appreciate you past few previous post. It's good to finally see someone with a level head come forward. I almost thought this entire site had no-hope. Myself, I am getting involved with BP's as a hobby to share some quality time with my son. If we can make some cool looking snakes three years from now then great, that's all the satisfaction I need- who cares what their market value is!
