    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....

Don Hamper, Great guy...

I just made a purchase with Don Hamper and am very pleased. I made the purchase of the animal sight unseen, and for a good bit less than I expected. I would also like to thank Ken Foose for referring me to Don, and helping me obtain exaclty what I was looking for.

Thanks guys,
Michael Beberman
 
Don, Robbie, and son, are all really fine people selling nice healthy animals. I have the pleasure of knowing them personally, and always look forward to seeing them and their latest offerings. I purchased a pair of Trinket rats last weekend and they are very nice. I was showing a friend some in their showcase when Don handed me the nicest pair, that he had already set aside for me. They are always willing to share information and don't seem to hold anything back.

Many Thanks,
John Chapek
 
I have never purchased anything from Mr. Hamper, but I have seen him at some shows. He seems like a real gentleman and always exhibits good manners and good stock.
 
Don is one of the best, period. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone for anything. You are more then welcome Mike.
 
Mr Hamper Is AWESOME

I agree with Ken 100%. If I am looking for anything I go to Don first. If he does not have it he knows where I can. His animals are by far in the top 2% of the hobby

I posted a good guy post on Don back in Sep 03'. I bought 3 womas from him. At the time I was also keeping JCP's. Mine would not feed or even act like carpet's. I asked Don about them. He gave me advice on my husbandtry practices and givin g larger prey items. Don is one of the best in our industry/hobby. Don Soderberg is another giant in our hobby. He is very approachable at shows and in his south Texas location. He has given me lots of tips about breeding colubrids and conducting business in general. Both of these guys are our mentors and set the example for the way herp business should be conducted. Thanks Don H. and Don S.

I bought my first snake from Don years ago. I have returned for other things from time to time and have always been totally satsified with the quality of his animals and his advice.
