    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....

As a new upcoming snake breeder, I have spent a majority of the last couple months browsing through various forums and classifieds in order to start up my business. I have thus far had approximately 32 shipments of snakes to my door, each with a different seller; and out of all 32 shipments, Isis Reptiles have proven to be the best!

I ordered 1.2 Mexican Black Kingsnakes from Isis and Mike Madec, and I cannot express how appreciative I am of these guys. Being my first time doing business with them, I was expecting nothing more than your standard service, but they go above and beyond in every way. The MBKs, first off, were priced surprisingly low for the current market -- and even at this low price, Isis and Mike knocked down the shipping by $37 for me. I was already extremely appreciative of their service, but they even went a few steps further upon receiving the shipment. All three snakes were not only in perfect condition, but along with the shipment, there was detailed documentation on each snake's hatch date, feeding history and shed history from birth! Since I keep individual detailed records of my own, this was of immense help when adding to my analysis sheet. In addition to this, the snakes were all older than I anticipated -- just about a year old, which came as a shock, considering their price which was already the lowest I had seen.

I rarely leave reviews for any business, but I couldn't help but spread the word about Isis Reptiles. They are the best breeders I have ever done business with, and I will continue to do business with them every chance I get. They take both the animal and the customer into thought, and that seems so rare nowadays. I highly recommend these guys and am thankful I was able to receive my personal favorite snakes from them.

If you're looking for a genuine breeder with excellent service, definitely check out Isis Reptiles. Best service I have ever received!
 
Yeah they are awesome! Purchased through them several times many years ago. Glad they are still killing it!
 
Thank you for leaving a great review! I wish you the very best in your newfound quest to become a snake breeder, I hope you are happy and successful.
 
We have purchased well over a hundred snakes from them over the years. They have been the best we have ever dealt with in a decade. Great quality animals in addition to being good all around people.
