    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....

I ordered a pair of blood pythons from him and when some possible problems came up with the snakes I already have, he was willing to work with me on my situation and took the time to promptly answer all my emails. My snakes are all doing fine now, so I had the pair shipped yesterday.  I just recieved them and they are in great shape and were packaged very well.  I would definitely recommend doing business with him if you are interested, and wouldn't hesitate to buy from him in the future.   <img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

David is a great guy.  I got a couple of baby BPs from him back in January and they were great.  Packaging, service, the whole nine yards.  I keep in touch with him and look forward to buying from him again.
 
We purchased some Honduran Milks from him earlier this year.  He was great to deal with & the snakes all arrived healthy & beautiful.  I would definately consider doing business with him again.

David shipped me five "wow" Variable kingsnakes--the BEST I have seen at THAT price. Good communication and great packing.

hate to write negative posts, but I feel that this post is needed to possibly save others from making a mistake.
I purchased a 100% het albino baby ball python from David Van Houten, Logan Enterprises in Oct, 2002 from an ad he had on Kingsnake. I requested he send me a pictured certificate with the snake to verify my snakes genetics. I did receive the snake and the certificate. I bred the female last yr. to a proven het albino male and the female produced 8 normal babies. I contacted David Van Houten and informed him. He assured me the snake was a het that he had produced using an albino male.
This yr. I bred the female to an albino male, the pairing produced 8 normal babies.
I contacted David and told him I felt he "scammed" me and I would like a refund and I would return the snake to him. He apparently does not give refunds and does not have any guarantee regarding the genetics. I think if this was truly a 100% het he would have jumped at the chance to reacquire her for the price of a baby, but he does not seem so inclined. He did offer up some references to prove his integrity. I contacted a couple of them and they pretty much said they would not deal with him again. I realize she could possibly be a het. but also feel that David would have "bought" her back if she was. After all, isn't an adult proven 100% het. albino female worth more than $600?
