    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....

im looking at a possible trade with mathew oakley where i would be shipping first and am looking for any info or dealings with him.any info would be apriciated.thanks for your time,
paul
 
I purchased some leopard geckos from him a few months ago and went to his house to pick it up. He has a clean environment and had some nice well fed leopards. I would without a doubt drive up and see him again.
 
WORST due I ever did business with in my life

Through all the he said this, he said that crap with my deal...this is what ended up happening.

I got a sick Blood Python in that was packed in a banana box

Mites, RI, Mouth Rot

I had to put her down, so I'm out an animal and the money I spent on her. She went on a few different rounds of meds and it never cleared up.

STAY AWAY from Matt Oakley

Something about him "thinning down" his collection for the past 4 or 5 years tells me he's a flipper and is worried more about the money than the animals.

I only wished I knew of this before
 
You know, that's what I like to see.

I'm out an animal and an amount of money....can't change that.

BUT

If I'm able to cost him business in the end, I feel better knowing that that's a person that gets spared the headache and frustration of dealing with him or his animals.

yeah i read the thread with the blood python and it instantaneously made my mind up for me, and thank you all for your replies i could have been out nearly 1500 bucks or worse a sick or dead bp. so with the upmost apriciation thank you all.

Like stated before, it is a mixed bunch. And feelings arent in the grew area with him it seems, either black or white. In other words, you love to deal with him or you don't. Just to clear that up because i know people will blow that out of proportion. Now i read about the blood, that made my mind up. But however hard we try, their still will be people that deal with him. And im pretty sure he is a flipper because he always has different animals in stock. Now with that said, i have never been to his residence or place of buisness so i cannot judge that part. But from what i have read and saw, i will choose not to deal with him. If you are looking for other ball python morphs, contact Joe1985. He is a local breeder in my area he does trades, and always has great animals...
