    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....

Does anyone know some good ball python breeder's or dealer's?
I'm looking for a normal baby.
 
Hi,,,check out Shawn Gray at Sunbaked Serpents...he usaully has some normals,,but they are usually very beautiful animals,,,alot of color!!!
 he might want like 50 dollars,,,BUT,,he is probably one of the best people to deal with...i have done numerous deals with him and was ALWAYS VERY HAPPY!!!! he has excellent reviews here at the BOI!!
  good luck

I second Jerry's reccommendation on Tim Reichard.  Stand up guy who cares about his customers.  Granted I only bought 2 normals from him last year, but he still asks how they are doing whenever I see him.  In my opinion you can't go wrong with him.

A lot of people seem to like Craig Wyatt when it comes to ball pythons. <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
 
Quoting Bill Bordello:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some examples of what I mean:

cinnamon head ball?
wannabe pastel jungle?
silver spot ghost?
Jungle?( I am sorry but this is NOT A JUNGLE BALL!!!!!!

Is this guy so desperate to have a name that he has to label every normal ball that he has with a weird name? That one he is calling a jungle is NOT a jungle, not like any of the genetic ones that I have seen anyway. Some of the stuff he had labled last month was ludicrous.

WHats next? a 'Doorknob blushing nosepicker ball'?

I just don't understand why there is a need to quacky labels on a obviously plain ball python. Some of the stuff he puts up is different, but most of the time its just rediculous.

So whats his story? anyone here deal with him? How did it go? He has had a couple of snakes that tempt me, but I kind of hesitate to buy from someone who does that silly naming stuff.

Bill Bordello

So, Bill, what's up with you?  I mean you posted a thread just four days ago bashing Craig Wyatt for his using colorful names to describe his stock for sale saying, "I kind of hesitate to buy from someone who does that silly naming stuff," and now, four days later, you're posting a recommendation of him to this thread?<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

I in no way am trying to say that a person should or should not buy from Craig.  I don't know him and never buy or sell ball pythons.  I am completely blissfully ignorant of everything pertaining to the actual question of this thread.

I just thought I would point out that ole Bill here is either purposefully stirring up the fecal material on the BOI, or he is a clown to the Nth degree.  I don't have time for either!
 
I got a couple beautiful babies from Tribal Propagation last year.  I don't know if they have any 2002 babies available.  What they do have is captive bred, not just captive born or hatched, so the babies were $50 when I bought them.  Definitely worth it!
 
I just picked up some normals from someone..paid $55 for 3 of them even. They are cb also, not ch or wc's. I think he has more of them even at this point. His email is "Paul Farmer" <[email protected]> He's located in Florida and also is breeding some other reptiles too. Don't remember what exactly but try him for one. I highly reccomend him ... our deal went fine and I am thoroughly satisfied with what I received from him. BTW.. I didn't just buy 3 of them, but that is his pricing on lots of 3.
 
SORRY WEBSLAVE ! For some reason the email is not coming thru when I post it here .arghh. I tried to do it with the email link button first post..then with just pasting it on here in the second post.. dang I'm creating more work for you here  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>  Please delete the last post for me anyway  <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

This is the last time I am trying this btw. If it doesn't work just contact me via email and I will send you the dang email addy for the guy lol. My email is [email protected]

His email is [email protected]
& his name is Paul Farmer

Sorry guys/gals...
 
If you are looking for nice looking, healthy normal ball pythons I would rely on Shawn Gray or Craig Wyatt.

Maybe its as simple as I am pointing out a fact. It's a fact, a lot of people seem to like craig Wyatt when it comes to ball pythons, which I LEARNED[/u] as a result of my thread.

so I was passing it along to this person. Doesn't matter what I think, I haven't dealt with him and his animals so I can't say, but from what everyone else says he is a good source for ball pythons, hence why I said IT SEEMS LIKE PEOPLE LIKE CRAIG WHEN IT COMES TO BALL PYTHONS.

If thats stirring up crap or being a clown then you lost me with your logic on that one.

   RISEING SUN REPTILES

The owners name is Matt Tsonoda. He specializes in Ball Python morphs and is in fact one of the few people to actually, CONSISTANTLY produce albinos. A LOT of people SAY that they do, but in reality not that many actualy do produce albino balls every year. Attention to detail, adherence to strict quarantine procedures, and a high degree of cleanliness and concise record keeping make him my first choice. I like at it this way, if you are going to buy HETS from someone(Hets for albino etc) you have to trust that person with 3-4 years of your time and your money(Time it takes to raise up that supposed "HET" that you bought and breed to see if it is indeed a het after all) Theres only one person that I'd trust with that much of my time. with ball pythons.
and that person is Matt Tsunoda. Email me and Ill send you his number. Good luck.
