    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....

Gents and Ladies,

Does anyone have experiences with Dane Meyer of Big Daddy Boas out of Fort Lauderdale, FL? I searched but unfortunately came up with nothing.

Thanks in advance. :thumbsup:

Well,

I'll give him a shot. I sent him a deposit this morning for a female triple het. boa, hopefully everything will work out for the best.

It has already been established in one of the Allen Belcher (Big Daddy's Wholesae) threads that it is NOT the same person. Allen Belcher is from Alabama, I believe....not Florida.

This is correct. :thumbsup:

I spoke Dane Meyer (Big Daddy Boas) last night and he voiced the same concerns regarding the similarity in the names. Unfortunately the association of the names (according to him) swayed persons from doing business with him due to the other guy's reputation. Dane is out of Fort Lauderdale, FL as mentioned.

Vic, definitely not the same person. I haven't done any business with him, however I have spoken with him on the phone, and he seems to be a straight shooter. I hope this helps. I think mistaken identity has been a drawback for him.

Thank you Rick for your input, again greatly appreciated.

Update:

I actually personally met with Dane yesterday to pick up the female boa, and he seemed legit. The animal was a Triple Het. for Moonglow female, and she is an extremely pretty F-1 Salmon (especially for for a triple het). It will take time to prove the genetics, but i'm confident they will prove out.

Regards,

Update: Initially, the snake was sexed as a female and based on the inital probe it appeared that way. Unfortunately, my good friend Frank Martin who is working with this animal noticed the animal was courting it's water bowl..... and long story short appears to be a male. Very disappointing as this point to say the least, and I am now trying to contact Dane and advise him of the issue.

Very disappointing...
