    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 Just Had To Write A Thread On My Recent Purchase From Tom Stevens...i Have Done Business With Tom Starting Late Last Summer....he Continually Amazes Me On What Quality Animals He Produces.....he Is Extremely Knowlegble On The Animals He Keeps As Well As Their Husbandry... I Know That Any Questions I Ask He Gets Them Answered Quickly And Honestly....
He Was Very Patient In Waiting For My Payment To Arrive And Let Me Know When It Was Received...great Comunication Skills...
The Animals I Received Were Packed To Perfection...very Carefully Padded And Containers Taped...
Don't Hesitate Buying From This "a+++++++" Herper!!!!
I Look Forward To Many Purchases In The Future...

Nocturnal Tom - Good Guy !

I've done a bit of business with Tom over the last couple years, and actually got to meet him in Daytona this past, Hurricane ravaged year :)

Tom is knowledgable, courteous, honest and an asset to the reptile business !

Thanks, Stephen Emerick
 
I want to buy some pits from Tom, but the weather here SUCKS!!!! I wanted to buy his patternless pines and a couple of Deppei. Ah well, spring will be here soon!:)
 
Tom is a great person. He really knows his stuff. Have met with him on several occassions and his pits are awesome. I know that I will be getting some from him this year also.

One of the Good Guys!

I've bought some stock from Tom--nothing but excellent!!! But more important to me has been Tom's willingness to share his techniques, his willingness to tenaciously track down information, his humble attitude and he has one of the cutest little girls around who will one day be an awesome herper. Reading his posts are a treat on whatever forum.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

I am happy to know my snakes are in good homes and feel lucky to have the good friends that I do. Best of luck to everyone in the upcoming breeding season. Thanks again Tom Stevens
 
Tom Stevens is one of the good guys in the business......

I got some beautiful Mexican Black Kings from Tom a couple years ago and they were top notch. Tom Stevens is a very knowledgeable herper. He has top of the line offspring and does not slouch on healthiness and cleanliness.
I plan on doing much more business with Tom in the future. I would not hesitate buying from him again.
Sincerely,
John Lassiter
 
Mr. Mom!

Tom also has a business he runs out of the house so he able to stay on top of caring for his collection. Having known Tom for several years I can honestly say he is picky about his breeding stock to be the best available. He spends as much time with his purchases as he does his customers. I have seen his collection grow into a top of the line stock that he has a right to be proud of. I would recommend him highly. :wavey:
 
nockturnel tom.......good experience!

i recently obtained an 04 normal s. pine from tom and everything went smoothly. she came in w/ good weight & size and is doing very nicely. thanks tom!.....dan felice
 
Also have had the pleasure of meeting with Tom. We shared space next to him at an expo in Waco. He truely cares about his animals and the hobby!

I would like to buy..

I would like to buy a couple of snakes from him but his last ad says local sales only, guess its due to the weather. I hope he has some left come spriing.
 
whoops...

sorry for that last post, it was preacher pats ad i was olgling over that he said he wanted local sales only not toms sorry. Tom has nice stuff though and a great reputation.
 
Great Snakes !

I was fortunate enough to get three beautiful Brooksi from Tom Stevens a couple of weeks ago. He has amazing knowledge of his snakes and their genetics. I got to pick out my snakes. I will go back for more. Thanks Tom...and to his little smiling helper...

I have to echo all the good things said about Tom. We breifly met in Daytona in 04. A super nice guy with a lot of great snakes......some he's probably hiding from us too. An honest guy in my book. I'm waiting for that first clutch of WS Speckleds. Great stuff.

Theres more than enough good guy stuff here, but figured I'd add mine as well. I've not actually done a deal with Tom (certainly not from lack of want), but I know him and have seen his collection. You're not likely to find someone who is more attentive to his animals and more eager to get a good outcome for both parties from any deal he makes than Tom is.

I got a pair of Mexican Black king Snakes form him all i can say is that he is a great guy! He gets you the best animals while having the best price! Works with you on everything from shipping to animal care. recommend to all. Thanks
