    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....

Just wanted to say that I purchased an Eastern Kingsnake from Jim a couple of weeks ago. My king was a very healthy, flawless specimen. Perfect, unbroken chain pattern on a jet black snake. Jim was very pleasant to deal with, answered all my questions, as well as sent me pictures of what the snakes I was looking to purchase. He has a very good mix of high quality colubrids. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again. Highly recommended.

I contacted Jim about a pair of Outer Banks kings he was advertising. It turns out that they were already on hold for someone else, but he had another pair of '05s and a nicer pair of '04s available. He offered to take pictures of both pairs if I was interested. I know taking pictures of snakes can be a real hassle, so it was very nice to come across someone who was not only willing to take the pictures but also got back to me right away with them. I ended up purchasing only one pair. Jim was very accomodating with the shipping arrangements and definitely kept the safety of the snakes as his number one priority. On top of that, the OBKs are in great shape and have eaten for me a few times without any trouble. I'd be happy to do business with Jim again.
 
Jims snakes are second too none

Jim is a great guy to deal with and his animals are as good as it gets. I always look forward to seeing him at shows, his table always stands out and he is a cool guy to talk snakes with. I always recommend him to people and many have thanked me for it. You can buy with confidence from Jim
