    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....

Last year at the NARBC at Tinley, I purchased a male ringer ball python from Sean and was very satisfied. Sean was available by e-mail and responded promptly. A pleasure to do business with.

This year I was interested in purchasing a male pastel and a pair of 100% het albino's. I contacted Sean and Celia by e-mail to obtain more information on the pastel and talk about a package deal. I still wasn't sure about the purchase because I thought I could get a pretty good deal at Tinley which was only a few days away. I asked if they could provide current pictures of the pastel and there was no hesitation. Still not being sure, I called Sean and talked to him on two occasions. Sean was more than willing to talk about the animals and the business in general. It was very clear that Sean was confident in his animals and confident in the customer service and guarantee he provides. Needless to say, I made the purchase from Sean and could not be happier. The pastel was much more beautiful than the pictures that were sent. The het albino's were just as beautiful in their own way.

Seeing Sean at Tinley was like seeing an old friend. The animals were in order, the paperwork in order, and there was an open invitation to call him at any time if there were problems or additional questions. Sean and Celia are truly stand up people in this business/hobby. One of my faults or attributes is that I am fiercly loyal. If I am happy with a vendor I will purchase again from that vendor. There are only two people in this business that I can say I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from and they are Sean Bradley and Casey and Darla Hulse. There will be no hesitation to purhase from Sean in the future and infact, I cannot wait to do so.

What this really is is a long-winded way of saying great people, great animals, and great, customer service. You will not be disappointed.
 
Larry,

Though I have not purchased anything YET from EBN I would have to agree you made a wise decision in purchasing your Pastel from Sean & Celia, they are very prompt in answering any questions and they have some very fine looking animals.
They are definatetly on my list of vendors to do business with.
 
EBN - Great People !

Sean and Celia (EBN) have outstanding animals. Their customer service is top notch, knowledge superb, and best of all, really awesome individuals to hang out with in person !

We concur wholeheartedly with this thread. Sean and Celia are both professionals in every sense of the word and are great to deal with on either side of a transaction. Knowledgeable folks with good quality animals and customer service skills will always do well in this industry and we expect to see these 2 for many years to come.

Now I just need to fly Celia in for some photography tutoring, or better yet, let her take pics of the entire collection! (hint)
 
EbN Rules ;)

Not only are Sean and Celia great people, but their facility and animals are top notch as well !! One of the most immaculately maintained collections that I've come across.
Sean has been known to help out his fellow local herpers in any way that he can, whether it be with husbandry tips or ANY other questions that may come up (within reason ofcoure :))
Celia is extremely knowledgable and genuine as well.
Can't go wrong with these guys and gals !!!
 
This is the business model we should aspire to. Satisfaction guaranteed and my best wishes to EBN for their business endeavor. Jeff Hardwick
 
Agreed.

Somewhere in the dark recesses of the ether is a thread I started about these folks a little over a year ago.

Sean was great to deal with, and when UPS took its sweet time, he followed the action, or lack there of, as neurotically as I did, which says a ton for a seller.

Wish them the best of luck, and the Apodora papuana he sold me is still doing amazingly.
 
I don't think enough good things can ever be said about these two people. Sean and Celia have an amazing collection of animals and a great facility. If ever you have the time to stop by his shop, do not hesitate to call and let him know you are on the way, you won't be disapointed. I have been dealing with Sean for two years now, and have always been more than pleased with the quality of the animals I have purchased, and you can't ask for better customer service. On a side note, Celia has got to be one of the best photographers around, especially when capturing the true appearance of reptiles. Thanks Celia and Sean for all of the support over the years.

Buy with confidence,

sean & EBN

Sean is the BEST, they don't come any better than my cajun buddy, honest as the day is long, you can't go wrong buying from Sean. great customer service. jeff mcclure
 
Just recently made my first purchase from EBN, Sean and Celia...and I am extremely happy. Superb communication and a great looking little male ball het albino who ate with no hesitation. Thank you!!
 
I have purchased from EBN on several occasions and been more than satisfied.
 
A few weeks ago I was able to visit the EbN facility and was thoroughly impressed! They have a super clean, well organized shop and are very knowledgeable. I made a purchase of one snake and some misc dry goods. Definitely will take the 2 plus hour drive to buy from them again in the future! I would highly recommend EbN to everyone.
 
We were looking into getting 2.0 of Sean's het. pied males, and followed through almost until payment, but then decided to go with another breeder. Sean's customer service through the whole thing was outstanding! Even after we decided to shop elsewhere! He is very quick to respond and super friendly and helpful. I am very much looking forward to doing business with him in the future!!! Highly recomended!!!

The big Louisiana breeder, EBN :)

I have stopped by at their place a few times and they were really nice people. Sean even took out his wicked Super Pastel male to give me a look. I can't wait to get a chance to do business with them since all I hear is good things.
 
my first post...

I have yet to run across a thread more deserving of my first post then this one :)

They are an absolute breath of fresh air!!! People like Ceilia and Sean make me proud to be apart of the herp industry.

Ebn is one of the best. Beautiful and healthy animals. Quick and thorough responses. Very professional through out the entire transaction. I hope to do business with them again.

Sean's customer service is top notch! He took the time on the phone with me, discussing morphs and bp's in general, sent new pics of the animals he had available, and just generally made the whole experience a pleasant one. The male pastel he sent is more beautiful than his pics, and eats like a pig! :lick: I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again! Thanks Sean!

not exactly a purchase, but a great experience

I just had a deal that Sean, in effect, brokered. I purchased a trio of Blue Beauties from a friend of Sean's, and Sean handled the payment and shipping AND backed the deal with HIS OWN TOS! I spoke to Sean a few times on the phone arranging shipping, and he was great to talk to, extremely knowlegdable. And when the critters got here I was very, very impressed with the packaging. Really first rate! I'd do business with him anytime!
