    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....

I started a new thread because this was a purchase and it went flawlessly. I did not want the great experience I had with Craig lost in his original post.

I helped Craig out on this deal quite a bit. Although he was not able to contact Todd, or better put, Todd did not contact him back, Craig felt the need to honor the above post.

We worked a deal for the pair above for a price of...well, he probably won't like me posting it here... Lets just say, it was really really good. His e-mail communication was great and he shipped when he said he would. The snakes were well packed and arrived a few minutes ago healthy looking and alert.

Much too my surprise when I opened the box, there is a note from Craig. In it, he says he couldn't decide which of the two females he had looked better so he sent both. The deal was for a pair and he sends a trio.

So this is what I received....

1.0 66% poss het albino 66% poss het anery
0.2 66% poss het albino 50% poss het anery

Craig was a man of his word on this and I hope everything works out for him with Todd.

PS.. Now the torture begins, waiting for them to mature and hope the genetics pan out.
 
Thought I would share a pic of the babies..hehe

Thanks again for your help, between the three of them I think you will end up proving something out, If not let me know and I will let you borrow a male or something. Good luck, and again. Thank you for all your efforts. Aren't those females HOT!!

Out of curiousity, are you a AHA memeber or just attend meetings here and there? Just curious.
I was just looking at the website you had a link to. Neat site. I did not know of Jeff's misfortune. All is well I am sure?

Anyway, jsut curious.

I would like to add, I have seen Craig's snake's. He has an awesome collection, he is very honest and I would not hesitate to ever buy one of his animals. Thanks Todd Tacey
 
Gotta add another atta boy for Craig. We just finished a couple month long deal and it couldn't have been any easier.

Back in the beginning of February, Craig offered an adult male 100% het albino BCI for sale. I offered him a trade for some of the thermostats I sell and he accepted. I sent out the thermostats and we both agreed to wait on shipping the snake due to the extreme cold on his end.

He sent pics of the snake and described it as being a bit skinny by his standards due to being cycled for breeding. That was his bit of misrepresentation there. This guy is a brute..lol The snake has very good weight and is much better looking in person that the pics represented.

This has been the second deal we have done and both have been perfect. Craig will always be at the top of my list when ever I need something.

Thanks again Craig.
 
Forgot the pic I was going to attach..lol This is the snake literally right out of the bag so that is why he looks all knotted up..lol Very active tongue flicking and cruising around the temporary rubbermaid I have him in.

I just wanted to say that I agree 100% with Craig being a good guy, he delivered on everything promised in a recent transaction I had with him. I got a beautiful snake at a fair price and couldnt be happier, definitely a good guy to do business with.

Craig Cade "Both Thumbs Up!"

Recieved two healthy subadult albino checkered garters from Craig in August of this year. The animals were exactly as advertised, and were shipped well and in a timely manner. The transaction couldn't have gone smoother. I'd order from him again with great confidence!
 
Craig Kade Great Guy

Recieved an albino boa from Craig, everything went smooth. Was quick to respond to any of my questions and quick with the shipping. Plus the snake looks great; well fed and good contrast and coloring.
 
Hogg Islands

hey all, just giving Craig some feedback here. i just purchased some hogg islands from him, which are my holy grail of snakedom. you can't find these guys for any less than like $400 dollars for a good one, and i only spent $300 with Craig for a pair! they are fricken gorgeous as well and are doing well in thier new habitat, now i just need 2 more and i will have a 2.2 set for breeding, i'm hoping that will be soon. Thanx Craig.
