• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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 bought a USCBB Emerald tree Boa and also a baby Lereh GTP from Joe Switalski. Animals arrived packaged perfectly and both are in great health. both fed and shed since being in my care. I would not hesitate to buy from Joe again. communication was great with responses usually within a few minutes
 
I have to agree. Joe is refreshing because he offers wild-collected animals that are almost on-par with c.b. animals. He seems to put actual care into them before simply shipping them out, and it shows.
 
I have sold animals to Joe and bought animals from him. Easy, flawless transactions every time both ways. Animals I received were in great shape!
 
Ditto. Not much to add except that the 30-something WC animals I have received from him have all established themselves beautifully. Clean inside and out, eating like clockwork and thriving.
 
Not such good luck, I purchased a female captive hatched Suriname yellow tail cribo and it died despite using just about every conceivable trick to get it to eat. It never ate. Not necessarily Joe's fault. I learned that these are WC and captive hatched.
 
I've bought a number o f high end animals from Joe. All were accurately described, shipped beautifully, and have done well for me.
Joe's customer service and communication is second to none.
I will continue to be a customer.

Received a trio of Blue Beauties from Joe and I honestly couldn't be happier! He's an awesome guy with beautiful animals. I would not hesitate!
 
Had a great experience with a recent purchase from Joe. Quick communication, excellent packaging, and beautiful specimen.
