    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 did a trade with them about a year ago.

Everything went smooth. However, the trade was done in person so we were both able to inspect the animals we were getting. Other than that, I dont know them that well but they seem like real nice people.
 
The Reptile Ranch Read their Terms

Please read their terms. They do not guarantee live delivery, most sellers do if someone home to receive delivery.

Also I paid $400 for three Arizona Mountain Kings delivered. I received only two Arizona
one the male has yet to eat on hid own and the third snake was a knoblochi mountain king found in Mexico.

I let them know within an hour of opening package I had wrong snake and have had no positive reply about a replacement on wrong snake.

Check out the web most breeders will guarantee live delivery. This does not mean you will get them live but if something happens to shipment buyer should receive replacement snakes or their money back.

I am not a happy with my dealings with The Reptile Ranch.
 
as far as shipping, I have heard stories from others of problems about a year back.

I do bussiness with them at there store in Gilroy, CA often and Laura is quite helpful and offers full information on animals.
 
My recent experience I'm posting on all related threads:

How are these people still in business!? Worse, how did I not see these threads before I became another victim? I was a victim of the Mr Peanut alias...I received 4 snakes; all were horribly packed, starved, sick, and dehydrated. I'm trying to rehabilitate them the best I can, but one has a fairly advanced RI and another is yet to keep down a meal. Of course, no responses to my emails. When I first offered the snakes water, it was amazing how long they drank. I've owned snakes for years and never seen them drink as much as these did. It's just sad for the snakes' sake and, for my sake, pisses me off! What is wrong with these people and how can we stop them?
