    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....

Bad Guy Blaze Garrett snake paid for not in the shipment with others.....

Chuck,

You don't get it. The end doesn't justify the means.

My feelings have not been hurt in the slightest...this current exchange is actually pretty amusing. I don't think bullying or intimidation is funny, and that's exactly what you were doing when you dredged up OP's past incident. At least own it...stop trying to justify it.

And just what does my "whopping one post a year" mean? Maybe that I have a life.

I don't think I'll run along.

Well lets see here. We have three choices by the way I see things...

A.) Blaze didn't send it :NoNo:

B.) Anna and Kelly have the snake and started this thread anyhow :NoNo::NoNo:

C.) Some how the snake got out in transit, re-sealed the box on it's way out and chuckled while thinking of the forthcoming Fauna thread his escape would cause. :thumbsup:

And that right there is actually why I jumped into the apparent issue of poor husbandry. I know it was off topic a bit but I cant help to wonder if Anna had her priorities straight instead of trying to jump from point A to point D to get into the breeding game and skipping all those points in between this may never have been an issue here at all.

They both cut corners to ship snakes, she cut corners to breed snakes, he cut corners to feed the snakes, she cut corners to properly house the snakes....

Its the basic nature of God's justice (if you believe in that): "You reap what you sow".

Neither of the two seem to give a crap about where the snake is. Neither I believe has notified UPS that there could be snake loose in there facility or on a truck (not that I believe that's possible but just saying). All it has been from the get go is "I'm out my money", "I cant breed this year to make more money", whaaa whaaa whaaa blah blah blah.

Anyway......can you change your avatar please. What is that thing?

If either has shown concern of the whereabouts of the snake I too have missed it.

Worries of a connection between my avatar and your recent close encounter? :dgrin: Ever wonder why they say roaches will survive a nuclear holocaust? Maybe they were bred that way?

It's a just shed Madagascar hissing cockroach and no, I don't see changing it in the near future, sorry (but you never know, I may find something I'd rather display at any time).

While I agree there are way too many posts that don't belong in a lot of the heated threads, to the point that it takes away from getting down to the truth easily, the BOI is a greater good for our community. Unfortunately it may take hours of reading to make a choice on your own if a person is truly a "Bad" or "Good" guy/gal after having to weed through all the BS. It would be a great loss to all of us if the BOI were gone. :(
 
OK... I must have missed this comment but now EVERYTHING was under weight??? How come you never said anything about this during the emails or during the PayPal dispute???
 
If I need to post the ad on here then ok but, I made it abundantly clear that one of the hets was very underweight due to her laying eggs (miss judgment on my part).

Yea are you being a jack ass. That message was aimed at you.

Why would you ship a snake that just finished laying eggs and was very underweight? Why would you even accept the sale knowing that she was going to be bred again this year?

Dont you care?

Was it always like this for you, caring more about money than whats best for the animals? What happened to change you along the way Blaze?
 
Blaze did say the "one" snake was underweight in his ad, and to us also, we never planned to bred her. I only want the facts stated here. Blaze gave us the little HET because the Het that had laid eggs was under weight and needed time off.

All five snakes were under sellers stated weights. We as buyers chose to accept this, and keep the five. This is our choice and we stand by it.

I still state that the albino is the "sale" issue we do not have him. This is what we are disputing with seller the absence of the albino in our package, not the female that needs much recuperation. She will NOT EVER be bred. I think what ever happened to her is unknown and therefore she is no longer to be a breeder but our family snake.

Blaze,

this thread has gone on enough I believe. Seller/buyer both have stated our story and it is still the same. I have seen where this has gone, people saying things back and forth.

I will say again to you, we only ask that you send the albino or refund his stated amount to us. There isn't really anything else to be said about it than this.

Just wanted to give everyone the heads up...If you don't see any responses from me for a couple of days, not trying to fade off into the nowheres.

Anna
 
Well we are still minus our albino..have settled into the reality that this is how it will be.
All other five snakes are doing well and have gained weight...hope everyone who watched this thread is doing well and again, thanks for all your added thoughts...That includes you Critical Bill...you salty dog you...LOL

Thanks all,

Anna Croffoot "skymountain"
 
Have you (Anna) or Blaze, heard anything from UPS regarding this? Was there any follow-up done by either party? Or, Is that it?

Wayne
 
Yes we followed up. Blaze asked for statement from UPS that snake was missing and then told us it was not good enough. Ups can be contacted by anyone who wants to and given the tracking number will state one was missing.
