    good place to buy balls
    Hey I live in Gainesville Florida which is north central for thoes not familiar and I'm a big fan of buying local but I'm wanting to expand my collection and I just can't seem to find anyone in the area that can provide quality animals I mean ofcourse I could find what I'm look on Craigslist but I want quality balls not cheap ones so my question is who would be some breeders I should check out in the southeast with a great reputation thank you in advance

    I wouldn't deal with Ben Siegel, simply because I've tried to do business with him in the past and he has always acted like a complete ass to me. There is a breeder that is outside of Tallahasse, I believe if you google ssnakes it should pop up. She doesn't keep her website up to date but if you email her she can tell you what she has available. There are also some great reptile shops in the Jacksoville area. There is also Family Reptiles in Lakeland....

    Also, go to the Daytona show in August! You are definitely close enough for that :)

    Thank you! That man is full of himself and thinks everything he has is gold. People pay it too because of the name. I think BSR is an overpriced rip off. Muuuuch better breeders/importers to deal with, IMO.

    I would also avoid dealing with Underground Reptiles as well. I made the mistake and ordered from them once and so did my buddy. Both of us got sick animals (ALL of them had issues). Despite countless vet visits and both of us having many years of experience keeping reptiles, none of the animals either of us ordered survived except a single Jackson's chameleon.

    I am not sure where in Florida they are in relation to you; however, I had a great experience with fortheloveofreptiles.com Both of my pickups (pied and queen bee) were well care for, very healthy, high quality, and are some of my fastest growers so far.
