• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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 Fascination Herp, highly recommended!

I purchased 3.3 Lytorhynchus diadema and 3 Scincus scincus. Fascination Herp was in constant contact and never hesitated to answer my questions. They kept in touch about the status of their animals (which included the awl-headed snakes, of high interest to me). My animals were not sent out until they were hydrated and deemed ready for transport.

The animals were sent via FedEx. Packaging was professional, and animals were in excellent health when they arrived. There were no issues!

Given all that, I can't recommend Fascination Herp enough (and I know they've still got some great animals up)! Everything was conducted in a quick and professional manner, and in a way that respected the well-being of the animals. I'm really looking forward to working with these fascinating--no pun intended--reptiles I received from them!
 
Fascination herp are solid folks

I've done transactions with Fascination on multiple occasions. Every single one has been solid, with healthy animals shipped out and exactly as represented for reasonable prices. Once I have more space I look forward to working with them again.

They posted quite a few ads on this site recently, multiple under venomous and a few others scattered about if I'm not mistaken.

Just got a pair of Cerastes Vipera from them. They stayed in contact the whole time and answered all my questions. Delta messed up shipping and they came a day late but Kristin stayed in contact with me and got a hold of them as soon as possible to take care of it. Great experience and the snakes look awesome.
 
I picked up this stunning 2016 male platinum genetic stripe reticulated python from Erik Keyster and Kristin Bennett at Fascination Herp last month for my husband's birthday. He arrived well packaged, safe, and healthy. Unlike many baby retics he's not at all defensive and is just a doll to handle.

We gave him some time to settle in and go through a shed cycle, and took advantage of the warm day for his first ever photo shoot. Given how gorgeous he is I expect there will be many more.

Had the very sad misfortune to have a doa from them this morning.
However Kristin handled it as a professional should and within 10 minutes of having sent an email with pic of the poor soul belly up, she had refunded my payment less shipping cost which is stated in their tos.
At this stage I would try again if I found something of interest they have for sale as poop happens......
