    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....

Brian Barczk-BHB Enterprises: Good guy

Just received several snakes from Brian, including a ready to breed het pied male, 10 230+ gram females, and a female pastel. They are awesome! I was very impressed with their quality, packing, and quickness of delivery. He communicated great, was very insightful, and asked me to call him when they came in to make sure everything was OK. He seemed like a very nice guy, gave me a great deal, and we could have talked for a few hours about ball pythons. I will definitely do business with BHB again. Thanks Brian!

I have yet to buy from Brian, but he has to be one of the nicest people in the business. I have talked to him at a few shows and I was very impressed with his great attitude and awsome animals.
 
This is nothing new with Brian. I got snakes from him back in '89 and '90 and still have some of them. Always a class act in person or on the phone and some of the best animal I have ever had.

Brian is a great person and his animals are nothing but grade A! When you buy from him you know you are dealing with someone who cares.
 
I bought two snakes from Brian and had mixed feelings about him for a long time after.

The snakes had some Protozoa and I was plenty ticked about it. Due to the nature of the snakes and the food items they were eating I later decided it was something that couldn't have been helped. At the time I was far too anal and shouldn't have blown it so far out of proportion.

I now must say I have a lot of respect for Brian and feel bad about how I've talked about and treated him. His shipping was great and the snakes were very nice as well as sold for a very fair price.

He's a good guy and I honestly wouldn't think twice about doing business with him again.

This is both an endorsment for Brian as well as a public apology for the things I've said about him that were either negitive or in poor taste.
 
wonderful man to deal with

I recived 2 georgeous female corns a bloodred and a caramel from BHB, for my 2 kids, both arrived in perfect health and condition, He was wonderful to deal with always taking the time to anwser questions. I was exceptionaly pleased with what i recieved from him. he has excellent animals and superb customer service, and we have been enjoying watching these 2 little girls thrive. i will deffinatly do business with him in the future.

Brian is one of the people to whom I owe a very deep debt of gratitude. I don't think I'd have made it to where I am today if it weren't for the direct influence of Brian during my "neophyte herper" years. He's definitely a class act.

Looking back on times past, I never realized how lucky I was to have gotten into herps at the time I did. Brian, Jeff Gee, and Mark Bell were all regulars at GLHS meetings at the time, and each was more than willing to help a geeky kid gain a better understanding and appreciation for our hobby.
 
11 years and counting!!

Brian is hands down one of the nicest, most generous people in the industry. His passion for his animals, his family, and his friends goes unsurpassed. In my book, he's in the top 2, and he deserves everything he's been so blessed to accomplish. He's been one of my best friends in the business for a long time and I'm very grateful for that.
 
Ive dealt with Brian for several years and have done numerous deals with him. He's a good guy with some killer animals. He will always have my business.
 
BHB Enterprises

Not one post mentions his wife Lorie!!! I sat next to her on a return flight from Daytona a few years back, awesome lady. I bought my male albino hog from BHB and Lorie handled the WHOLE transaction, never spoke to Brian once. Not only did she communicate nicely but sent me a KILLER snake. Brian deserves everything he worked for and is SO fortunate to have a life partner like Lorie. Bottom line.... doesn't matter who helps you at BHB you'll be very happy. Ron Radloff
 
Gotta agree!!

She's a great person as well!!! Handled a few of our transactions as well!! Super sweet, and gets an A++++ in my book!!
 
History often repeats itself......

Just got some more ball pythons in from Brian and Lori and they are all doing great.
Thanks BHB!

Brian is a class act

While I have never bought from Brian, I have been to his house with our mutual friend Phil [can you say pied hunduran Brian] and he welcomed me warmly. Most people that first off meet me are sometimes taken a bit back.
Definately a class act
 
That's what makes them so GREAT!!!

They absolutely treat EVERYONE with kindness. They definently deserve all the success in the world!!
 
my experience....

I bought a few snakes from Lori at a show a few years back (I think Brian was sick or something) and she was very helpful and extremely nice. I would never hesitate to buy from them again. In fact, I occasionally check his website to see what's available but its currently under construction. Either way, they are pleasant people to buy from. just my 2 cents.
