    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....

Inquiry Laucke Hooper?

F Arab Het Albino (breedable)

I am not sure, Laucke, and this should probably be in a PM. Babies are usually listed at about your price, but adult females are listed at 1500-2500. Go to KS and search 'arabesque'. I'm not sure those people are getting their price, but there's a POSSIBLE het listed for $1550.

I wonder if the the breeders you asked didn't hear the 'het albino' part. The only reason I bring it up, expecially in the BOI, is that prices that are 'too low' may make people nervous, like me.

I just got an '05, and paid, well.....about triple what you are asking. I understand wanting to move her and not sit on her, but she is priced so low she makes me nervous.
 
Thank you Rob for the input. I was just told by a large reptile vendor here in Ohio that my price is to high at 800.00..I guarantee my animals genetics. To a point that if you buy my pair and you do not produce what you should of. I will give you back your money and sell your babies for you. However Since there has been so many questions about pricing on these animals i will remove the add until I can get more reliable information. By the way the 1550.00 one you are speaking about is also het anery. I looked at her last night before i posted my add. Again thanks for questions, i will repost her in the next week or so.
 
This is starting to look an awful lot like a classified ad....
take the discussion someplace else
 
Well, this is an inquiry about Laucke. He has an animal listed that is nowhere near market price. To me, that raises suspicions. I thought he should be able to respond, either adding to his credibility or taking away from it. That's why I didn't PM (sorry, Harald).
 
Wow, I am brought to Fauna over bs from Reptile mike, and now I am defending a price? Rob you should of called I just thought I was answering questions.. If you dont like the price dont buy it..I guarantee all my animals for both health and genetics. This is petty..I think I am done with this. Thank you hhmoore
 
Wow how did I find this? To any one that reads this, this far. I have bought some animals off of Mr. Hooper before and have had no problems. I am not a boa guy so as the price thing I am not sure but the bloods I picked up were right on. I even went back to him for a pair of carpets. The second time was just as smooth as the first. Looking outside in the rat mouse thing sounds petty. This is just my two sense....I know a bottle of Tylosin does not run one hundred dollars. It is not even used for for most respiratory problems any more because most URI's are a Pseudomonas witch Tylosin is resistant to. How ever it will work against Mycoplasmosis. I would stick with Ceftazidime for Pseudomonas. I don't know I guess I would gram stain first?

Take it for what it's worth,

All of my 8 leopard geckos,1.1 albino tegus and 3.8 ball pythons and 1 albino boa have come from Laucke. I never have had any problems with shipping, quality or price of animal. He was easy to deal with and spent a lot of time educating me on husbandry and breeding practices of the animals.

I don't suppose you did have any problem with shipping since you are both registered from and posting from the same computer.

Yeah I realized that as soon as I hit "post" and tried to edit, but no go. So then I was looking for it in my usercp and couldn't seem to find the place to edit names. I thought I had put it in my signature though, weird . . .:shrug01:
 
Yes it is true that Beckie is Laucke's girlfriend. Reptiles are how we met and what I said about my purchases from Laucke before we bacame an item is true. So BUSTED as you say is okay. Greg as asked for some responses and I thought I would give my input. I am sure in time more responses will arrive.

Beckie,
Now that you have created your own profile, there is no reason for you to post under Laucke's. Using your own will avoid any undue confusion.

Sorry Beckie but it looks a little fishy especially when you don't initially disclose your relationship with him. Not to mention the biased opinion isn't likely to be taken seriously (which may be why you didn't initially disclose it which seems dishonest to me). If you were his ex-girlfriend and saying he was an ass, a thief and had poor quality animals it would not likely to be taken seriously either.
 
I just got two ball pythons a pastel and a pin off of Laucke. Everything was smooth just like transactions in the past and the pin is one of the best I have seen. No a bad guy. I will buy from again.
