I am interested in purchasing a Dumeril's Boa from Glade Herp Farms. They were recommended to me as a breeder by a friend who purchased a healthy Dumeril's from them with no problems. However, I did some research on them here and am finding very conflicted opinions. I really do not want to buy a mite infested or unhealthy animal, or get ripped off $95. I have made contact with them and requested pictures, not as proof, just for my own personal interest because I want to see what I'm buying! :) I am not in any way trying to start a flame fest, and I hope that this post does not come off with a negative connotation. I am just trying to find the best Dumeril's breeder, as I have had trouble finding them.

My best advice is read the threads here about them, then make a decision.

Personally, I would keep looking for a dumeril's else where & if it came to it, spend a little more on one.
 
I have read through the threads and am just left with very mixed feelings about it.

From what I can tell, they seem fair-good as sellers, poor as buyers, and poor with customer service.

Unfortunately I am yet to find any other Dumeril's hatchlings for sale. :(

I have a friend who bought a Dumeril's from them and had no problems, and now has a happy and healthy baby.. so I am just overall indecisive.
 
Patience pays off. If you had enough doubt to post a new inquiry after reading existing BOIs, I believe your decision is pretty straight forward.

I would avoid them. First of all, they are the only dealer who charges you for the carton they ship in. Second, I bought a skink from them. They advertised with a beautiful picture of the skink. That was not what they sent. What they sent me was an emaciated skink with the backbone showing. It died in a few days. I called and asked for return of my money. They would not give me a refund. They offered to send a replacement skink, but they insisted I pay more money for shipping the replacement
