    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 on bearded pets?

That would be greatly appreciated. Even if it turns out he doesn't know anything, at least we can check him off as a possibility.

When did you get your hets?What kind of paperwork was sent with them? And what kind of condition were the snakes in when you received them?

Scott Vernooy
 
Scott, I got a Certificate from bp saying thay are 100% with a photo of the snake . I have a sheet from Elija Collins (Atlanta) breeding record 04/04 .(with photos) I got them in June in good shape. I did get mites but I don't know from were.(could have been from his snakes) I got 2.3. The sheet I got from Elija has 13 snakes on it one blacked off(like it died) and my 5 underlined. I know that thay are not hets But I have to hope. ( ha ha ha )

scott:(
 
I have 1.1 hets from them. All I got with mine was the gaurantee from BP. He swears up and down, in emails, that they are hets though. But he won't disclose where he got them or any proof of lineage.

Scott Vernooy
 
Does he give you a phone number to call and discuss herps, etc?

Any contact info?
 
Scott,
No one was at the church when I got there about 6 PM today. I'll check back in another day or two.
Marla
 
Thanks anyways. I really doubt he is the guy. A couple posts earlier he was said to be out of Atlanta. But who knows.

Thanks a bunch

Scott Vernooy
 
People in Snellville and Lawrenceville refer to themselves as being from Atlanta. It's just the 'burbs. No one who doesn't live in Atlanta has any idea where these places are, but Atlanta they know. I searched the local phonebook and the net and also only came up with two Elijah Collins in Georgia, apparently father and son, with the son living and working in metro Atlanta (Snellville for both).

I'll check back and see if there's anyone there to talk with, though I won't bother him at home. If he is a pastor, chances are he values a reputation for honesty and respectibility and would want to clear his name if he is not involved. Not that we don't have our share of crooked clerics here, but they are the minority.
 
This is true...

... I'm from Fayetteville, GA and when asked where I am from I always say that I am from Atlanta. If I were to say "Fayetteville", the immediate response would be, "Where's that?". It is a pain to have to explain to everyone that it's about 30 minutes Southwest of Atlanta, so instead I just say Atlanta. :)
 
I have not chimed in much but have a interest in this.

They sent me two balls and one, as I stated, was sickly and emaciated - it died yesterday.

Thanks Bearded Pets! You guys are quality!

Your time will come.
 
I almost sent them money for a het albino female ball but first posted on ks to see if anyone had heard of them. Thank the lord I did. Thanks to everyone who helped me out. Matt

Here's a link to another thread on them. The last reply should be from myself concerning a few email I've had with Tracy...need I say, I'm not surprised.

Check it out
 
scam artists

i would seriously reconsider purchasing any reptiles of any kind from those guys horrible experince with them pretty much same story as everybody else asked for pics dot have any cameras broke asked for address of company never responded just an allaround bad company would never recommend them to anybody
 
I emailed the Barkers about them and of course, they had no clue and said they have never sold any snakes to Bearded Pets.

My question is, how can they continue to be that fraudulent and do so blatantly?
