    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....

Bad Guy WARNING....Nick Nistico "Precision reptile labs"

holdthepickle I just wasnt sure what you wrote thats why, sorry. anyways Im taking this road to try and get him to admit hes wrong and nothing else.

Its as simple as a LIE that hes saying to try to make himself and his "company" seem bigger then life. A dealer down here saw the video and said that that was not only the funniest, full of BS thing he has ever seen someone do in this biz, and hes been around 15+ years, but he nailed on the head when he said "hes pure delusional" , lol
I jsut have to agree.

We'll, lets looks at his claim mathematically. 52 weeks per year. 52 x 5 (week days) = 260 weekdays in 1 year. 260 x 50 boxes (a day) = 13,000 boxes going out per yer! Wow, that's pretty freaking good. Lets say each box averages $25 order only. 13,000 x $25 = $325,000. Now we call know Nick's income annually. Bruce, you might want to drop the plant business and take over his operation! :eek:
 
By the way, my business sends out 350 - 750 boxes per day. So suck on that all you other breeders.

Hey Josh-

I gave you some advice/heat about proof earlier. Now I'm going to give you some friendlier advice.

Those who know you seem to think and speak highly of you. Don't allow this whole thing to consume you. Feel free to chime in EVERY time you hear a mention of Nick, Precision Reptile Labs, or DFR, but don't go out of your way to try and slam him. If at 15 you succeed in outclassing a grown man and business owner, I would say you have a very bright future. If you allow him to keep you down on his level, you may sacrifice your good name before you even build one.

Every time you have an urge to slam Nick, think to yourself, "What would Nick do?", and then do the opposite!

Again, good luck
 
I haven't bought anything from Precision but I couldn't help myself from watching that last YouTube video.

As a consumer of the information contained in that video, I can't help but share that I pooped a little in my pants while watching it. :yesnod:

Now I will probably be accused of living in LaLa land. Lets see now, I am ignorant, jealous, scumbag, and called the webmaster a liar all in less than 12 hours. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Wow you're such martyr just "can't resist" coming back for all this terrible abuse. You've made it very clear how you feel about this site and it's members, but "Oh GEE WIZ it is oh so entertaining, just can't resist. let's talk about landscaping companies. poor nicky my boy, just can't win pooh pooh, blah blah...it's ALL hearsay...won't stand up in court...just so entertaining...going to bed now...had to get this in...so entertaining...can't resist"
... and that he has never done any harm to me.

This narcissistic comment pretty much says it all...never done any harm to me. wait and see, wait and see...
 
You know folks I was compelled to look at this site after several emails were sent to me concerning me renting space to Nick. It even went so far as a threat that the whole place may be burned down. I had a long talk with Nick and Jerry this morning. Will have another in the next day or two. I got him to take down the stupid Kawasaki mule racist slur video on u tube and I can't find the others that people are talking about, I assume they have been removed. I'm not happy about being brought in on this at all. Nick has agreed to think before he reacts in the future. He knows I can survive without the rent and that he better start acting accordingly. I'm sure others on here will be unhappy with me short of taking his first born, selling his mother's kidneys and lungs, and casterating both him and his father, maybe even going back 3 generations.

I welcome some constructive suggestions .
 
Bruce, i will call you in a bit, But a constructive suggestion is that Nick never keeps to his word and dont fall in his traps! sorry but I had to say it.
 
You left out some

You forgot to mention, ignorant, jealous, harbouring a racist, calling the webmaster a liar, blah, blah, and more blah.

Glad I am into orchids, bromeliads, cactus, and general gardening, certainly a less blood thirsty hobby, but after visting this site.....booooooreing!

One thing I see, it has certainly got more people watching this continuing saga. Kinda like a soap opera. ....I still think Josh and Nick should sell movie rights.....maybe Critical Bill could finance it.


Gee to inexperienced ( no make that ignorant )on here to get this portion onto another thread.
 
Burce, again I wouldn't say we're more "blood thirsty" than plant hobbyists. I would say we're more passionate. If someone mistreats and orchid, most people would see it as a death of a plant. If someone on here mistreats a ball python, for example, most people would see it as a death of a living breathing animal. I guess that's why there are animal cruelty laws and not orchid cruelty laws. And I'm not just saying that's the case in the "reptile community", I think it's all encompassing. My 2 cents.
 
Certainly got to agree with that. I love and worship my 9 corgies. Loosing an orchid is not the same. But when you see the habitat distruction in the wild, it does bring tears to your eyes. Is there a place on here where we can discuss and I can bash CITES. May be interesting to get plant people expressing opinions with animal people. I would love to add 4 cents worth to this discussion. Looks like we are loosing our audience here.

You and I were told by the owner to stop the sniping, and still you continue. Add "rude" to your list above.
 
Can you move this to a more appropriate site, like was suggested. Think people were getting a kick out of this. With each post both our credibilities go down....... and I will continue with this sentence if we can get to a different section. Maybe the owner can suggest a thread. Would really like to follow up with some of your comments.

Did get a little accomplished today with this fiasco. Hope to get some more results tomorrow. that is if someone does not burn my place down.

Did you register for HELL yet, as I suggested in a PM?
 
Heyyyyy I was named in his cute little video... Do I win some sort of prize?

It really enrages me that he gets a damn smirk on his face when he talks about his video where he continually insulted my wife. For you who doubt he made a video that should be proof. He talks about how ‘we’ hide behind the computer, what the crap is he talking about? Several of us on here have put out the any time and any where offer, yet here he is posting videos on youtube to defend himself; big man making videos hiding behind his computer. Some comments I want to voice about his video.

Please correct me if I am wrong but I don’t believe that I called him a racist, I expressed concern of that word usage epically on a public business account but hey he can do whatever he wants.

What conclusions have I jumped to with him? Questioning his breeding ethics and calling his BS? Telling people that he has been to Maddigascar, has the purist chameleon lines in the country and is on his 7-8th and greater generation... Nick is 24 I believe, to be that far along I would say it would take at least 5 years to do that, so that means that he went to Maddy to pick out panthers, ship them back and start up shop that long ago and never make yourself public? I find this highly questionable but even so it’s possible. So to have the purist lines in the country he must keep his chameleons individually caged and keep great records, right? Well he keeps his chameleons in large cubes with multi male and female pairs, in another thread he said keeps different locals in them... Babies are told apart with dot patterns on the tail. For example baby A that is a nosy gets 1 dot, baby B that is ambilobe gets 2 dots... 100% accurate system im sure... How the heck can you keep that pure?

Do I have reason to question this? Hell yea I do. Saying stuff like that and then in the end for everything to be false makes the community as a whole look bad.

He said that I make assumptions about him... Making the assumption that he is a criminal, liar, thief and known scam’r? Well it would so seem that all my assumptions have been proven true.

If he has been in the business for 10 years that would put him at 14...

100 people a week, thousands of people a year? Wow... You do better than anybody than I have EVER herd of. . . Whew, he must easily be a bored millionaire.

“The way we represent ourselves on these reptile forums is ridiculous” “You guys have too much time on your hands” You are kidding right? He is the one that on SEVERAL different reptile forums that is has already been banned from and even more that he is working on im sure (sorry, just made an assumption). Do some good? Why doesn’t he do some good, for all the ‘good’ he is doing he is doing much more bad.

Doing something good is being honest, having integrity and strong ethics, not lying about everything.

*ring*ring*
Aw crap... I gotta go get this call.
