    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....

Just wanted to say that I just purchased a nice Bairdi Ratsnake from Tim at Vivid reptiles. His Eastern Bairdi are unreal. Anyway, arrived very healthy and well packed, with excellent heat packs. Tim really produces some awsome animals, and I'm more then 100% happy with my purchase. His animals are of excellent quality. Highly recomended.

I am right there with ya!!!!!!

My wife for the third time this past Christmas, bought me a snake from Vivid. It's a deppei deppei ( Durango Mtn. Pine snake ) and is by far the best baby I have ever seen. Also, I have 2 cape gophers from Tim as well, one orange phase and one red phase. They are the best capes I have ever seen anywhere.

The snakes were always shipped on time, packaged excellent, and again, the best examples of these species I have ever seen or had the privledge to own.

I highly recommend Vivid for those who want the best of what they are searching for, if he has them.

Take care!

I purchased 3 jungle carpet pythons from tim of VIVID and they were great looking and well packed. It was several years ago but he was a good person to but from. DAVID
 
I just recieved my 1.1 Metallic Ratsnakes today. They were packaged wonderfully. Tim is a great communicator, has high quality animals and was a real pleasure to do business with.

Thanks,

I'm currently dealing with Tim now purchasing some baird's. Paid for them back in December but we've been buried in snow since then and he's been great about keeping me updated on the status of my snakes. Can't wait to get them here within the next week or two as the weather breaks.
