    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....

Some really nice animals at good prices but I had never heard of missdaisy before. Then, I saw the contact info.

For more info call Tom @ 239-645-9661 or e-mail [email protected]

Has anyone gotten anything from Crutchfield recently?

How did the deal go?
 
Miss Daisy

Hi Steve,
I saw that you were making an inquiry on Miss Daisy. I wouild like to share with you my experiences with them. I was looking at ads on kingsnake and happened to come across an ad from them posting Female Pastel boas for sale. I looked them over and requested additional photos of them. This was on Mon. 5-9, Tom crithfield e-mailed me that he would send me additional photos out the next morning 5-10. I thought to myself yeah right due to the fact that I never knew this Individual, but to my suprise he sent them for me to look over, they were really good quality photos of the animals. I e-mailed him about one paticular female that stood out, and I also asled him if he had any males that were of the same quality. He replied that he had 3 males and he e-mailed me photos of one that was outstanding and stated that he had 2 others the same. They really looked good, and he asured me that the photos were accurate. I ended up purchasing a pair of them. I paypaled him the amount needed and he told me he would contact me when he was going to ship out which was going to be the next morning 5-11, he called me and told me that things were set to go, but that someone had fed the boas and he didn't like to ship them because of the stress factor and regurgitating. I agreed with him and we set up for him to ship out on Mon.16th for a Tues. 17th delivery. He called me in person the morning of the 16th and told me that he was shipping out and gave me a Fed-Ex tracking #, and stated that I would have them by 10:30 A.M. gauranteed. Tom also told me to get in touch with him if there was any questions or problems, and to notify him when I recieved the animals. Well I did, and when I opened up the box they were packed very well and labeled and the sex I.D. was on each bag, bags secured very well. Well the time of truth, a million thoughts running through your mind when you are getting ready to open the bags. I was flabergasted this pair of Pastels boas were absolutly Drop Dead Beautiful. I could not believe it, I have had experiences buying snakes from other individuals that have told me that you would be impressed only to be dissapointed in the animals you recieved, but not from Tom Crutchfield. The boas were far above what I had expected. I gave them a couple days to settle in and fed them, F/T small mice just as he said, no problems. All in all everything was handled very professional and superb from start to finish, Great communicatios from start to finish, SUPER ANIMALS. I would not hesitate to buy from Tom at all, I actually look forward to doing more business with him. I hope this helps to make your decision a little easier.

Thank you

Miss Daisy.

Steve,
I also forgot to mention that Tom Crutchfield has other associates, affiliated with Miss Daisy. If you go to www.ecosafari.com you will see some of them. Hopes this helps you out.

Thank you

The search won't help.

Crutchfield was out of the business for a while.

I am looking for recent transactions with him.
 
Well my transactions were less than favorable with him. All boas were nice when I received them but in a few days one had died, Tom replaced it. Then the others started to fade and one died then another died, mind you this all happened in a few months time. I still have the replacement and she looks on her way out. And I have mites in the boxes they were in.
When I posted my experiences with him he called my house twice acting like an A$$ with some name calling and such. Wanting to give me his address and doing a lot of chest thumping. well thump thump back.
Doing business with Tom can go only one way in my opinion :toiletcla
 
Since I am in Florida and do the show circuit I have seen Tom at the bigger shows for a little while now. He has been bringing quality animals-mostly boas to the shows, that look great and many have good locality data.

I agree that with Tom's length in the industry, importing, and other activities have made him unpopular with several people. However, how many hundreds of thousands of herps have pasted through his hands?

I would have no problem buying animals from him currently from what I have seen.

Thanks

All the animals that I have gotten from tom recently have been just as represented and all appear healthy and well off.
