FFS.
Apostrophe "S" is NOT PLURAL! It's POSSESSIVE! If you don't know that, have someone else proofread for you. I have a really hard time taking anyone seriously if your website isn't correct, regardless of whether or not you're a jerk on here.
So for anyone else in this business who is serious about selling their quality animals, please have someone proofread your site. Please. Or intellectual snobs like myself will just be turned off.
Oh, and keep up to date information (not you HCC, but others). Nothing I hate more than going to a BP seller's (see what I did there? It belongs to the seller, hence the apostrophe) website and seeing info about their "just hatched 2010 babies".
(/rant)
imperfect grammar is excusable, infringing another's copyrighted property is not. that combined with HCC's hostile demeanor are the issues here, not the proper use of punctuation.
I hate to see English maligned as much as the next person, but I've seen spelling and grammar errors on almost every website I've visited, including those whose names I trust. I wouldn't let that be a determining factor for you when making a purchase.

I believe, and this is just my opinion, if you are a professional and presenting yourself as a business, it behooves you to have a professional appearance. Spell check is included in everything now, including what I'm typing at the moment. Does it keep me from buying from them because of a typo? Not really, I prefer quality snakes over a misspelling. Does it look less than professional? To me, yes, glaring errors in spelling and composition are unprofessional. If HCC had not picked on spelling to begin with, it probably would've just been ignored. I'm not rehashing his attitude here, I think we've covered that. I'm just leaving a message for future site owners and professionals as to what not to do, myself included :)

After he does all that, he will have to keep business records. Good records, preferably on a computer program with a business format. Records of all purchases of animals, housing, equipment, food supplies, their housing, equipment, and food, receipts, dates, etc..
Then records of all sales with all pertinent info.
Somehow, I just don't think he's that much of a legal business yet. Not enough to have even a toe to stand on. Even IF he had some worthwhile "evidence" of defamation or loss of sales by another..

Snakes, Jeeps, Dragons, Nature, & Knives.. Makes my world go-round!
Yea also legit businesses tend not to steal images from other legit businesses lmao...
Thats as bad as stealing someones name basically.
