    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....

Good Guy Bob Futo... GREAT GUY!!

I recently purchased a pair of Ghost Ball Pythons from Bob, and he was a GREAT guy to work with! I've owned both boa's and balls in the past and decided that I'd get back into Balls. Did a bunch of research and finally decided on this pair. Bob was very patient, especially considering we did a different type of payment method (Western Union). The snakes were shipped the day before a big snowstorm was to hit and they came out of their box happy and healthy. They've both been eating like champs.
This was our first experience buying snakes off the 'Net and Bob made it a GREAT experience!!
THANKS BOB!!!!!

I've done a few transactions with Bob and must agree with everything you've said. He is very patient as well as very helpful. This is my 3rd year breeding ball pythons and even after our transactions concluded, he was always very helpful and happy to answer any and all questions I had about breeding or eggs and incubation. Not to mention the exceptional quality of his animals. Thanks again Bob and happy herping to all!
 
I will agree with all the positive things people have said about Bob on here. I purchased a 2010 Suriname Bcc from him, and am very happy with my purchase. The snake is very healthy and doesn't look bad either (beautiful)! Bob was very helpful and informative before AND after the transaction.
 
Bob Futo is a pleasure to work with. Few that can match to his standards in business. I whould highly recommend him to anyone!

here are some positives about Bob:

- Very patient! waited on my end for the bank to to transfer money to paypal, took 3 days and he still waited on me even with someone else intersted in the same reptile
- Very Attentive! Kept in contact with me through the intire process, before purchase, after, during shipping, and after, and still does just to make sure! He called me when it was shipped to make sure if it had arrived, was healthy, not cold. Then checked up later to make sure everything was ok. No "Great you got it, Cheers!" and end the process from Bob. He makes sure you are 100% satisfied and happy!
- Truly amazing animals! my BP I bought from him matches the picture completly, no gimmicks or airbrush done to the photo to enhance the look. Plus what really gets me is how well tamed the animals was already! Right out of the box to this date my BP (baby female blonde pewter) is friendly, energetic, and curious! No hissing or striking. No defensive poses when you go to pick her up either! Never have i had a BP this well tamed soo young when buying online! and I have 6 now!

My negatives about Bob Futo:

- Needs more BP's! lol just kiddin, This man is flawless. Truly a "Professional" in the reptile industry!

Highly recommend Bob Futo to anyone! He is truly a pro. I forgot to add he went out of his way to assure I got my BP when he just lost a family member and was attending a funeral and family matters. Plus got it out before the big snow storm hit earlier this week! I did recommend he take his time because family comes first but he assured I was 100% satisfied by getting my BP out on time. I will do business with him again in the future, and still keep in contact with him. If your looking up info about Bob I assure you he is liable! I put my reputation on it!

If you want pics of the BP, the box it arrived in, etc etc I will gladly post them on his behalf!

Thanks Bob! You ROCK!!!!

I also had a good transaction with Bob Futo. The snakes were well packaged and healthy....and enthusiastic eaters which is always a plus. I wouldn't hesitate buying from Bob again.
