    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Inquiry:Any Dealings with KJBallpythons?

THAT IS CRAZY WE DO SPELL BUISNESS THE SAME WAY NOW THAT IS WEIRD. WELL THAT IS FUNNY BUT I HAVE SOMETHING I JUST SAW THAT DOESNT MAKE SENCE. IF YOU LOOK AT KENNETHS ADS HE HAS AN UPGRADED ACCOUNT CAUSE HE HAS A BANNER ON KINGSNAKE. NOW IT IS GOING TO COST ME AN EXTRA 85.00 BUCKS FOR ME TO UPGRADE MY ACCOUNT FOR A YEAR IF WE WERE THE SAME PERSON THAN WHY WOULDNT I HAVE A BANNER? JUST SOMETHING I THOUGHT ID BRING TO THE TABLE. BUT ANYWAY PEOPLE SAY WHAT THEY WILL AND MARIA IS SOMEBODY THAT HAS NEVER DEALT WITH ME OBVIOUSLY OTHERWISE SHE WOULD NOT BE DOUBTING MY CREDIBILITY IN THIS INDUSTRY.

Your message just showed up for some reason. No We(my husband and I) are not CMG Reptiles. We are KJ Ball Pythons. You can check out our phone numbers as others did ours is non published but I can call you and our name will come up on your caller id or you can do a little more digging and talk to people we have dealt with. Or as Chris posted we will both be at the northernVirginia show you can come out and meet us. Chris will have a table and we will be somewhere around there. This has given my husband and I a bad name, along with Chris. The inquiries we had on our post have not returned our e-mails. The way you stated Kenneth/Chris are the same person .......
is actually formed as a fact not a question. If you would have asked it would have had question marks. Just One phrase that you typed in has pulled business from us. I know a lot of people who type in all caps, does that make them the same person? I also know a lot of people who do actually misspell the same words does that make them the same person? I refuse to quit posting praises about other companies that we have dealt with. This is after all the purpose of these threads. To let people know that its is safe to deal with people. I agree that some are not as honest and they do misrepresent in a sickening way but that is about 5% IF THAT of people like that who post on these threads. Most everybody is here for one purpose, the love of their animals and they joy of giving somebody what they are looking for. This is the way that I will continue to believe. I believe everybody is a trustworthy breeder, honest and professional until there is hard core proof that they are trying to cheat people. Unfortunately people do get burned through these post but once again that is why this forum is here. To prevent it from happening to someone else. It would be totally different if one of our companies had screwed you. Then you would have every right to post whatever you wanted about us. But that is not what our companies are about. We are about honesty and integrity. You've never spoken to either one of us! Let alone dealt with us. So its when people do stuff like this that good companies do not get the recognition that they deserve. So if you feel that I have not answered your question thoroughly enough please feel free to e-mail us back or call us 703-257-9947.
Thank You,

To Whom It May Concern

Each and evey post made by Maria was written by me.

While at her house I started reading the forums and replied without checking what user ID I was posting under, and after my 2nd post I realized that I was the one using 2 IDs. I was unable to log off or change user IDs so I continued only to point out the reasons I thought they (CMG/KJ) were the same person.

It now is very clear that they ARE NOT the same person.

The reasons I thought they were are:
1. all caps
2. same area
3. same mis-spelled words
4. both parties talking about a similiar animal at the same time.

To all that read this thread, my initial post in this thread was uncalled for, and I should have written it differently.
If this thread shows anything, it should show that both parties (CMJ and KJ Ball Pythons) are VERY level headed and calm natured. I have seen a good number of people fly off the handle over posts like this where they have done nothing wrong and somebody tries to call them out on something.

If this thread shows anybody is at fault, IT SHOULD SHOW THAT IT IS ME THAT WAS WRONG.

Even in emails sent to me by Jessi and Chris, they were not rude and only wanted to know why I thought and posted that they were the same person.

If this reflects poorly on ANYBODIES integrity, it should reflect poorly on MINE!

To Chris and Jessi,
I am deeply sorry if my posts have deterred some from doing business with you. I tried to explain so it is clear that I was wrong in thinking you were the same person.
If there is anything else I can do, please let me know.

Al
 
Allow me to further choke myself with my foot...

and after my 2nd post I realized that I was the one using 2 IDs.
Click to expand...

Should have read.. During my second post....
When I quoted "Actually Maria I would like for you to call me now." was when I realized I was posting under my girlfriends name.
 
WELL I JUST HAVE TO SAY HONEST PEOPLE ARE HARD TO FIND AND I THINK I JUST FOUND ANOTHER TO AD TO MY LIST. IT TAKES ALOT OF GUTS AND INTEGRITY TO ADMIT FAULT AND TO DO IT ON A FORUM LIKE THIS PROVES INTEGRITY ON ALS PART AND I WOULD LOVE THE CHANCE TO DO BUISNESS WITH HIM JUST FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT LIKE I SAID HONEST PEOPLE ARE HARD TO FIND. I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THE DOUBTS WITH PEOPLE IN THIS INDUSTRY JUST BECAUSE A PERSONS WORD IS VERY IMPORTANT IN THIS INDUSTRY AND IF THERE IS QUESTION THAN IT SHOULD BE BROUGHT UP SO THE PERSON IN QUESTION HAS THE CHANCE TO BACK UP ACCUSATIONS AND I AM GLAD FOR THAT. BUT AGAIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE EMAIL YOU SEND ME AL AND I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING BUISNESS WITH YOU IN THE FUTURE.

To Maria and Al

We just wanted to thank Al for his phone call and to let you know that we completely agree with Chris. Apologies accepted and absolutely no hard feelings. It really does take a big man to admit when he is wrong, it shows great integrity and we also hope to do business with you guys in the future.

Humph. I thought anyone with a name like "KJ" had to be a good guy. I must say, it was a little humorous reading all of these posts with my name associated with Ball Pythons all over it....lol.

For the record, I'm not either Kenneth, Jessi, Chris, Melissa, Maria, or Al. I am also not a ball python. Heck, I haven't looked in a mirror yet this morning, so I might not even be myself...lol.

All caps sucks

The reason that Maria is thinking this is the same person is because of the post being in all CAPS both times. Most people don't do this but if you think that they are the same person do some research first. I hate when people use all caps and if they knew better they wouldn't do it. It is normally used to try and SHOUT out to signify that you are yelling. Do you yell the whole time you talk? I doubt it. I am not saying they are the same person or not but at least try to find out first.

P.S. Stop using all CAPS !!!!!!!!

OK CANT WE FIND A BETTER THING TO DO WITH OUR TIME THAN COMPLAINING ABOUT CAPS? I TYPE LIKE THIS AND ALWAYS HAVE. IF YOU TAKE IT AS YELLING THEN IM SORRY IM NOT YELLING. BUT COME ON THIS IS NOT THE AOL CHAT ROOMS THIS IS BOI WHERE ABOUT 40% OF THE POSTS ARE ABOUT USELESS GRIPES. THIS FORUM IS AWESOME FOR THE FACT IT CAN WARN OTHERS OF BAD DEALINGS OR NOTIFY OF EXCELLENT ONES. AND THIS INDUSTRY NEEDS THIS BUT BITCHING ABOUT TRIVIAL AND PETTY THINGS IS JUST REDICULOUS. IM A SNAKE BREEDER NOT A COMPUTER GEEK SO IF MY TYPING SKILLS IRRATATE SOME PEOPLE IM SORRY AND IF MY TYPING SKILLS STOP SOMEONE FROM DOING BUISNESS WITH ME THAN OH WELL DIDNT NEED YOUR BUISNESS. MY ANIMALS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES AND MY BUISNESS ETHICS DO TO. SO AS IT STANDS I THINK THIS THREAD THAT HAS GONE ON FOR A COUPLE DAYS NOW IS ABOUT EXHAUSTED ITSELF TO THE POINT OF HEADACHE SO I WILL JUST STOP BY SAYING ONE THING THAT ALL OUT THERE SHOULD HEAR IF GETTING INTO THE BUISNESS OR FOR THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN IN IT FOR AWHILE.

GIVE 1 CUSTOMER 100% SATISFACTION HE TELLS 10 PEOPLE,
BUT SCREW 1 CUSTOMER OVER HE TELLS 100 PEOPLE.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IS SOMETHING I STRIVE FOR AND IS SOMETHING I DO SO UNLESS THAT IS IN QUESTION HERE THEN STOP WITH THE USELESS JIBBER JABBER

THIS IS JUST GETTING TO BE FUNNY I THINK. THIS PROBLEM WAS SOLVED FOR ME YESTERDAY AT ABOUT 12:00.WHEN AL CALLED ME AND APOLOGIZED FOR THE MISUNDERSTANDING THAT IS IN THESE THREADS.AND I WILL GLADLY DO BUSINESS WITH HIM IN THE FUTURE. AND THE TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS JUST HOW I TYPE.I ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL .I HAVE NOT BEEN IN SCHOOL FOR A LONG TIME AND I KNOW THAT IS NOT WHAT THIS IS THIS IS THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT THERE SOME PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT DO GREAT BUSINESS AND SOME THAT DON'T. THIS IS A GREAT PAGE AND I WILL CONTINUE TO USE IT FOR ALONG AS I AM IN THE SNAKE BREEDING HOBBY. I AM NOT TIRING TO OFFEND ANYONE BUT IF I HAVE I AM SORRY.I WOULD HAVE LEFT THIS ALONE BUT I AM NOT ONE TO SIT BACK AND NOT SAY WHAT I THINK.THANKS FOR EVERYBODY'S TIME AND HAVE A GREAT DAY.

THANKS

Kenneth and Chris,

Typing all caps is understood as yelling in computer jargon. Not only that, but by using all caps you loose the capacity of stressing an important point, like for example: SALE! Reading all caps is also difficult for the reader, and even monotonous making it not very pleasent, something you absolutely don't want a potential client to feel. Just my thoughts in the matter.

Regards :)
 
Point taken. I look at your critisism as constructive and look at you and all that reply to threads about me as potential clients so if thats how you take it then its something I will change. I do buisness on the up and up 100% of the time and I take feed back very seriously so thanks for the feedback and ill try to tone it down. One thing i am not is a pompous jerk or a know it all nor to I want that to be thought of me so im not going to argue with customer feedback unless I feel im totally 100% in the right and on this subject i dont feel i am so again thanks and to all out there I apoligize for capin it up like a loudmouth. Geez that took me forever to type that lol

OK .I will not type in all caps anymore.As many people that has looked at these threads,this has got to be bad for business.I am just out here trying to make buy and sell pretty snakes.
