    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 got a baby Rhino Iguana from Tom for my birthday a few weeks ago (a friend purchased her for me) and he did a great job with her.
She is healthy and active, shipping was exactly when he said it would be, she was packed up wonderfully, and his communication as a seller was spectacular.
At one point shipping had to be put off for a couple of days due to weather and he was great about keeping us posted.

I highly recommend him...

THANKS TOM! I love my girl:thumbsup:
 
Yes I agree Tom is a great guy...He has some of the nicest animals I have ever laid my eyes on...Every transaction I have ever had with him has worked out PERFECT....

I purchased a green tree python this past winter from Tom. The snake came in great condition and is doing wonderful here. Tom called and e-mailed with all info. I'd definitely buy from him again.
 
Tom has been keeping and breeding herps longer than anyone I know! I used to look forward to his Price List like the holy grail! Its always a pleasure to talk to him wherever I see him! Cant go wrong with Tom C thats for sure! Jim Elliott <Tampa Fl area>:yesnod:
 
I have purchased many snakes from Tom over the years and it was always a pleasure doing business with him!! If I'm looking for something that is not so common in the trade Tom is one of those people I will always contact. Not only does he have great stock and many cbb animals originating from his facility but what he doesn't have he usually has a good bead on who his working with what. Tom is a great guy and this industry wouldn't be what it is today without the likes of Tom and a few others.
 
I've done business with Tom since the 1990's. He's a great guy and very passionate about reptiles. He is the only broker that I will buy from, and his current business model focuses on low volume/ high quality stock.

Tom is a pioneer in our industry, and is one of the guys that started it all. :thumbsup:
 
I had heard all of the history involving Tom (of course) but I had never gotten an animal from him.
I had been wanting another Rhino for some time, since mine died a few years ago with egging problems. I had been looking at online classifieds here and on kingsnake and I can tell you there were less expensive babies out there but my friend swore to me we would not find a better quality animal anywhere.
I am very glad we went with Tom.
