Dream Comes True

my shipment arrived from the US without any problem...which is very strange coz I always have trouble all the time lol

All 100+ ball pythons came safe and sound. Been busy with customers untill late night. Came home at 1am and finally got time to take pic of ball python that I'm keeping for myself. Here're some of them :)

First is a female spider. Not really sure why I'm keeping her and not selling her since I already got one female spider(1,700 grams) already lol

next is a male pastel, also not sure why I'm keeping him. Already got 2 proven breeders male pastel already. My bad habbit, always want more of everything(greedy bastard) :D

next is a trio of female pastel. And one bigger female pastel from Evan Stahl. I think I import something like 12.24 '06 and '07 pastel this time. And I got to choose first ;)

hint lol

He's a homo pied, not a het. Many customers are interested in this guy but I told them this dude is not for sale. He's here for life. Coolest pied of the year for me :bow::bow::bow:

Last but not least(my college professor always said this in the class and I thought it's kinda lame. Now I always say it D'OH!)

My dream snake, have been wanting his for two years. He's a lesser x mojave. There's a yellow stripe on his back but not that obvious. He's the perfect example of get what you like for breeding project. Because even though you're not success breeding you still got what you like the most as pet.
Never name any pet(except dog of course)but I name this dude "DCT" you can see what DCT stand for from the title of this topic...god I'm so lame :oops:

wow......speachless.....what a shipment!

VERY NICE!!!

You can send some of those back here if you want ;)

Ohhhh my goo'ness!! I can't even imagine how it must have felt to go through that shipment and open up each of those stunning beauties!!! And how awesome that such a large shipment can go sooo far across the world and every snake arrive safe and sound! :banana:

I'm curious about something...from reading the picture captions...it seems like you have snakes from multiple breeders. In buying such a large group of animals from multiple breeders...do you arrange to have them all shipped overseas from one shipper? Or did they actually arrive in separate shipments? Just wondering how that works.

(And that pied....has GOT to be the coolest low-white pied I've ever seen!!!)

In the US I have a guy who help getting cites, keeping animals from breeders for me and ship them all for me. He's a fulltime breeder, but export regularly.

I used to use broker to keep animal(from other breeders)and do everything for me, and believe me they will find a way to create problem for you lol

Here're some of the problems I've had in my importing career...and I've been importing only since '06!
- Broker switch my animal with another customer's shipment. They ship my animals to malaysia and ship malaysian customers' animals to me.
- Broker sold my animals(to their walk in customer)that I bought from breeders and never give back my money, they can't keep my animals for 3 days before my exporting schedule. They didn't even have a gut to tell me their employee screw up and I found out by myself after I got the shipment. And I paid $800 for those 4 baby cornsnakes(butter stripe and other stuffs I forgot back in '06)!
- Broker screw up booking and my shipment got stuck in different country for 2 day...yupper I lost caramel albino red ear slider and other stuff.
I hate those wholesale brokers. They treat their oversea customer like....

Holy Crap what a delivery!! :O

Awesome snakes! :banana:

WOW!! Beautiful animals yo got there!!

Risky business for sure! I'm glad you finally found somebody to work with that is both honest and good at it! :gj:

Wow, what a shipment! That spider though - :O She's super hot!

Holy crap! That's like Christmas times a 1000!
