    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Mike ? Inquiry....

I was wondering if any of you have done business with a guy named Mike (I don't know his last name)......his contact info is:

e-mail:[email protected]
phone:(954) 689-0849

I am possibly interested in buying a sub-adult Columbian Boa from him and I want to make sure I don't get taken.
 
I do believe this is the same Mike I purchased a long term captive corn snake from in the past. I will check when I get home tonight (I am at work now) but I am pretty sure. She is beautiful and has been doing just fine. I had no problems what so ever with the transaction. I will post again tonight after I have double checked.

Yep, that's the same Mike! I have his last name down as Cottom.
I had no problems, and would buy from him again.

You are very welcome!

is it MIke C

If it is Mike C. I picked up a pair Surinames from him a year ago his cages were clean and the animals were in great health...Hope that helps you. Jesse VanHorn
 
Mike Cottom of South Florida is a great guy with great snakes at great prices. Period.
I've been friends with Mike for many many years and was introduced to his good friend Bill Parks through Mike.

I go to the NRBE in Daytona (used to be in Orlando) with Mike and Bill every year - we'll be there again this year.

Mike also has some of my animals for sale. Mike and I have some projects going with Bill Parks too.

Anyhow, no worries - pleasure to do business with him. Buy with confidence.

I give him my animals and collect some money once a year or at the show, whenever I see him... NEVER a problem!

Thanks and take care! Joe Rollo - BciJoe
 
Definately a Good Guy

I am in the process of picking up a couple of 07' Jungles from Mike, and he has been nothing short of outstanding in the customer service department. He is willing, and able to work with you the best he can to make a deal happen. I would gladly recommend his boas, and services to anyone. Thanks for everything Mike.
