    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Kathy, these snakes are shipped like always.my gf packed them like we usually do. but i cant understand why she didnt use any insulation? unless we were out and didnt have any

ive shipped several snakes the sameway never had issues

So which is it? Do you always ship snakes without insulation? or did you run out?

Either way I think it's time for you to just admit that while you've never had problems BEFORE, you're having one NOW and the way you handle the issue and yourself is going to be the deciding factor in your future in this industry.

Quite frankly you aren't the LEAST bit concerned with the fact that animals that were previously in your possession are now hurt due to your poor shipping practices. I think that speaks volumes.
 
Broken rib girl seems better, will move just prefers not to. RI girl took a turn for the worse and we have been nebulyzing antibiotic for 4 days and and isnt not worse and might be better. The smallest one has eaten a few times F/T and the largest badly scared girl has eaten one less time F/T. Paypal has now awarded the refund I requested.

RI girl that was supposed to be bred and is laying inverted today....Not wanting the added stress but what do you do....She is doing much better as far as the RI problem since we have been nebbing Antibiotic.
 
Laying inverted can be just her being uncomfortable, shes got follicles developing or mean nothing than just laying. Palpate her and if you feel nothing your fine, chances are if you keep males away she wont ovulate from few locks.
 
So happy you will have those funds to hopefully cover a portion of the medical expense. I'm happy knowing those snakes are in your care and will be taken care of from here on out!
 
She, RI girl, is lumpy, skinny and in blue :( I am not good at palpating but you can see lumps in the lower part of her body. We are not handling her at all, except to clean her tub. The broken rib girl took a F/T weanling rat that we layed in her tub. Thankfully she did not wrap it just took it into her loosely coiled body and sorta held it while she ate. Now we wait anxiously to see if she has damage that will prevent her from digesting or defecating. If this one does ok, we will offer her a weanling every 5-7 days. She weighs around 2000 grams.

A picture of you holding the female that bred would be good. Let the tail dangle in pic straight line. This way we can tell if shes developing enough to ovulation or not.
 
I will see what we can do. I am working 12 hour shifts the next few days to pay for the vet bills on them. Really should get pictures of them all, since they are doing better :) Really if the RI girl does or does not have eggs it doesnt matter because there is nothing we can do to change things. It might explain her not eating/refusing food a few days ago.
 
Update

The initial Girl with the RI seems to have fully recovered but the smallest girl broke with an RI a few days after the first one finally seemed healthy. She underwent the same treatment but still seems to struggle some with feeding well so we may still not be out of the woods yet. The friend, Brandon Ripple, that posted the initial RI girls videos, tell me that Shane Porter sent him a message about filing a lawsuit for slander. The 'she is getting better' video I put on my youtube account has received no message at this time. Broken rib girl still struggles, has not defecated, and we are considering euthanasia :( Her neuro issues remain the same, and probably will if what Shane Porter said was true about her being that way for 6 months before I got her.
 
If Shane Porter didn't want to settle up financially with Kathy before being forced to through Paypal, I doubt he is actually ready to pony up all the dough that an attorney would want UP FRONT to try and un-defame his name, which he managed to defamed all by himself by how he handled the whole thing. Hope those Ball Pythons get better.
 
Hes back to selling on FaceBook

If he's selling 2 gravid probably heavy and costly to ship for 250 shipped I don't think he would have money left over enough to cover all these vaccines. He's a liar.
