    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....

I had nothing better to do this afternoon so I snapped a few photos of my balls to send the fella. Heh heh......cant wait till he opens the envelope.

Time to snap a few pics of my balls: $10.00
Stamps to mail the pics of my balls: $0.78
The expression on the scammers face when he gets to see my balls: PRICELESS!

BWAUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! There's always something new in the ever changing ball wolrd.
You need to come up with a clever morph name for them. :rofl::rofl:
 
Good idea, Laura!

I know there are Granite Burmese ...

The new ball morph? Granite Balls :D

I think something is wrong with that link. it doesn't seem to go anywhere other than logging me out and takes me to a page that says I need to register.

The original links are on post #36. I am not sure why it isn't working on our thread.
 
This has probably already been thought of...

But, by asking for pics, I am sure the pics he gets are the ones he sends out as pics of his own snakes.

Well I got the package today and opened it at the post office and we have another ball morph to add to the list. THE INVISIBLE BALLS. The box was empty and I am glad of it. The pics of balls is absolutely the funniest thing I have heard of. Great idea. Well guess this is over for me and I hope this thread keeps someone from getting burned. Best wishes to everyone and thanks for the insight and the laughs.

They used to have a Fort Wayne Reptile Show. I have not seen it listed in a while so I dont know if they still do it at all or only infrequently.

But if they do have it again I will be sure to make the trip up there and see what I can find out about this guy.

No, there's not a show anymore. The last one was October '06. I wish I could help, since I'm a local...

What a tool, sending an empty box. Allen, glad to see you have a good sense of humor, and didn't get taken by this jerk. :yesnod:

Did you (or are you going to) inquire about whether you have any kind of case for attempted fraud?
 
I have already checked into the attempted fraud. Since I did not send anything out it does not apply. Also on a sad note I was told that for the feds to pursue a fraud case over the internet, a one time case has to be over 10k and/or the total amount in all cases has to be greater than 100k. That's crazy. With a law like this that seems to protect the guilty we are in for a long ride. This J D REPTILE story will be only one of many that we will have to deal with in this industry.

Allen,
Check the box again. It is possible that he is using the new "growth hormone steroids" (if you've seen my thread, you can appreciate the humor-rumor better) on the critters that he sent, and as we all know, the net result of such use is that balls actually shrink. Maybe they are there, and just very tiny at this point ?

Its true Allen. Small balls are better then having none at all. Nothing to be ashamed of. Handle your small balls with pride!

I always thought that was just due to being out is sub freezing weather. Hell, mine have been known to actually disappear completely in sub freezing weather.

Thats called Snow Balls. If you keep them out in the freezing weather too long you get Blue Balls.

Hey Alan, you may want to check that box for a tiny whole, that the tiny growth hormone induced shrinking balls could have escaped from.

It has been said on this forum before that snakes can get shipped and espcape through holes in the box :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Those would be called called Slick Balls! So smooth and small they can slip through the tiniest of crack. And you wouldn't even notice! Its always better to use a tight box. Taping up is not the answer. Because if tape gets on your balls....it could cause pain when you peel it off.

So true. And good advice, Chuck. Why, I heard of a guy once who shipped two good-sized balls. He used duct tape and somehow those balls got entangled in the tape. His balls were really in a wad! :D
