    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....

So we've all had a chance to read the letter. Now I guess we need a couple things answered.
Who has negative colonies?
Where are these tests being done that are better then Dr.Jacobsons?
Is it fair now to not let anyone know?
Jim.

From what I have seen of this particularly dimwitted troll, he's not real good at reading anything he doesn't want to know. He seems more the kind that responds to being smacked upside the head with a board than the kind who will listen and learn.

Good post.

Dennis Hultman.
If I want to buy AV neg dragons where would I ask if not here. Asking about the labs here seems right also.
This is where you inquire correct.
If its not, please point me in the right direction.
Jim.
 
The rules are posted in a sticky at the top of the BOI. Your thread has been moved.

As far as where to post regaurding information about bearded dragons, hmmmm, let me think.....there IS a bearded dragon forum here....I wonder if THAT would be a good place to request information about bearded dragons?

You've got to be kidding, right? You're not REALLY that stupid are you? It was just a jest, yes?
 
Wilomn.
Do you know the answer to my question?
If not, thanks anyway.
Jim.

Who said a test was "better" than Dr. Jacobson's? No one. The two tests being done, EM and PCR, are the same two he does. Just at different facilities around the country. Just in Denise's case she had a PCR blood done too AS WELL AS THE PCR FECAL. The word better was never used. By anyone other than you.
 
I know some have clear dragons beyond question as they had test more accurate than what is being stated here. PCR, EM, via blood and feces are not the only way to know and there are 2 much more accurate test that are being ignore but have many negative results. I have had some of those and most people that have had dragons for over a decade or lost one and had a necropsy with advance liver studies have 1 of those answers already, those are much higher negaitve statistic than the testing being done on fecal or blood which it seems the experts say may or may not be an adenovirus that is a problem. I would think any lab that does a necropsy with advance studies or does a liver bio can already give the best and accurate stats of positive and negatives and I know from the past you will find a lot of negatives.

Does that not say so or Im I not reading it right?
Jim.
 
Those tests are for dead animals Jim. Not live ones.
 
Shrap.
Please lets not turn this into another spat.

Is that done on dead animals?
I asked if I was reading it wrong. Am I.

Jim
 
What Spat? I answered your question.

A necropsy is a procedure done on dead animals to find what killed them. Much like an autopsy in humans.

And a liver biopsy is performed on dead animals as well in most cases. There are some live animals that a liver biopsy can be performed, but with most small animals the procedure itself will most likely kill them because they have to operate and remove a section of the liver to test.
 
jsrocket.
No. That is taken from something someone else said.
Jim.
 
I did. I don't see any clear description of the two other tests, other than you claim they exist.
