    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....

Hi all,

About 3 or 4 weeks ago I purchased a 07 Coral Albino Female boa from Tim. I got a reply to my inquiry about her pretty quickly (minutes) and the deal went smoothly. We exchanged a few emails and everytime he was very polite and helpful. Easy to communicate with. I actually got a better deal than he was asking for so I lucked out there too.

She came in packaged nicely and I took her out and she was perfect. Very good coraling all over her head and some of the body. It was my first albino and first time dealing with Tim and it was a pleasure.

She's taken two meals now and is fixing to shed any day. Still is a bit shy and flighty but think she will settle down with a little more time. She has great muscle and is not fat or overfed looking in any way.

I highly recommend using Tim and hope to do future business with him again.
 
I'm not sure if I ever posted in one of Tim's threads - so, if I haven't, this is long overdue. I've purchased a handful of snakes from Tim over the past 4-5 yrs, and all have been problem-free.
 
It's been a awhile since I've bought from Tim, but he's a good guy.

I had the chance to meet Tim and Eric at a show last year, great guys with some amazing animals.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again.

I bought a potential super ghost from Tim last year and everything went perfectly. He's a very nice guy and so is his wife. You can tell he's very passionate about his animals and takes good care of them. The ghost I got had good size and was an eating machine from the start. His prices are usually pretty fair as well.
 
I've purchased several snakes from Tim at the Columbus shows. He always works with you on the pricing and 1 snake (1st shed @ show hatchling) striped spider never ate for me. Tim made it right at the next show. Very good person and business man.
 
My daughter purchased her first ball python at a show from Tim. He answered all questions and gave her great advice. We've had the snake for close to a year now and he's doing great.
 
I also just got a Black Pastel male bp and he is gorgeous. He is a very nice man and I am very glad to have met him and his wife at the Reptile Expo. My husband and I are very pleased with him, so good job Tim. He is still settling in and has not ate yet, but I am very sure that he will. Thanks again and great job Tim.
 
I have bought a few snakes from Tim. Everything was great good health good purchase. Tim is one of those that you could talk to for hours and not get board.
