Yeah, it actually represents all the bloods they have. I heard they don't even breed their own animals, they just broker them

Well its a risk with any breeder who doesn't give you pics of an animal they are selling to you.
So are they an "risk" or are they "known for bad animals." The two are signifigantly different statements.
As with ANY animal, pics or not, information is key. A picture is worth a thousand words, but the words "wild caught" and "captive born" are worth ten thousand pictures.
Pretty outlandish, however, to claim they ship bad animals because they don't have pictures of them.

I didnt say they ship bad animals because they dont have pictures. I said its always a risk when you don't see a picture. Someone I know on another forum knows some people that have had bad animals shipped to them/

Shaun, this is really the worst way ever to try and support or back up something you've said. It's not just hearsay, but it's third-party hearsay and quite frankly has absolutely no credibility whatsoever.
I understand you're trying to help, but to claim someone is "known for shipping bad animals" while backing it up with such flimsey evidence is no more than slander.

Now, if you want to back up your claim by saying, "I know of four separate people who have been unhappy with their animals shipped from LLL and here are the links to where they are discussing it..." or something along those lines...you'd have a bit more credibility.
Otherwise it comes across as silly as saying, "Yeah, well, my mom works with this guy who knew somebody who's cousin said that he saw a man eaten by a 40' retic."

So, I decide it isn't a good idea to keep the snake in there because it is a pretty nasty crack and I didn't want the snake to get cut. Well, I decided that one night in the same enclosure wouldn't hurt until I could get to the store tomorrow. I was laying there in bed and I hear what sounds like a snake pouncing a rat/mouse, so I get up to check on all the snake and I see that the little ball python has a hold on, and is trying to constrict the bigger one! So I grab the two immediately and separate them, fortunately there is just minimal bleeding so far, we are going in for a vet check tomorrow just to make sure everying is fine. I know better than to keep them together, but I figured one freakin night wouldn't hurt. Well, I guess I know better, and to everyone on here, it is worth going to walmart for a tub and lid. I just got back from there and have everyone settled in. I feel like crap for letting this happen.”

“I think the issue is SHOULD they be housed together and the clear answer there is NO!…Ya know why? They are just not social creatures. Housing them together puts them in a fundamentally abnormal situation and they get stressed. They have no instinct on how to be social and get stressed out from dominance issues.” One last one? Ok then:

“there may be some species that you can put together in a single terrarium, but BP's are NOT one of them.”
There you go. There's also a good example I found the other day. Ok, so say your BP is being housed alone, there's still a chance it'll be stressed right? Imagine that as a revolver with 10,000 chambers and 100 bullets in it, you spin the chamber and pull the trigger (kind of like an even more extreme version of russian roulette). If you house together, you are adding another 3,000 bullets into that gun. I don't know about you but I find that quite explanatory.
That's just part of my massive quotes database.

Re: BP housing partner
Ok, I am sorry for those statements and ask if they be removed.
