Who Have You Bought From?

Who have you bought your animals from?

Bailey and Bailey
NERD
EbN
Ben Seigal

8Ball Pythons

Adam Wysocki.......period

Ed clark, Jamie Quick, Chun Ku, Bradford Cole, Cueball(came from BHB), and Tim hoppenhaufer or something like that haha... if you read this Tim... my bad on the last name!

Petstore, Joe Dembinski, Evan Jamison, Will Bird

NERD and 8Ball, but I couldn't put both in! Maybe you could change the poll to allow more than one answer so that you're actually measuring what you intend to measure thus having validity... ;) Yeah baby~ I passed my stats classes!!!!! :rofl:

The past 4 snakes have all been from Adam. Before that I had bought from Ed Clark (has has passed, no parasites or mites), Joe Dembinski, Tim Koppenhoffer (who I highly recommend), Eric Erb-Reptile Tubs/Platinum Reptiles (who I also highly recommend), CBR, and a couple others from our local show who's names escape me at the moment.
Other than Ed, I can say that I would buy from all the above again. With CBR, I am very careful though. And as much as I know he has used it in the past successfully, I will not use homemade mite brew again!
But when I go looking for something specific, I call Adam first!

Adam @ 8ball Pythons, Jamie @ Quick Reptiles, John @ Super Serpents, Scott Michaels DVM, Stan Ruppel, Ian G. @ Outback Reptiles, Tom @ Habitat Systems, Chris @ Simone Reptiles, John @ John Piro Reptiles...

Dixie reptile show( from the owner, not the show) Janeothejungle and one other. If i find what i like with nerd or 8 ball i'll get it, but i also like the give the smaller breeders a shot, and some have some really awesome snakes.

12 from 8ball pythons
2 from Reptile Basics
2 from Ralph Davis
1 from NERD
20 CH from some guy on fauna
2 from someone at the White Plains show
8 from an add on Fauna (originally by Ed Clark and Brock Wagner)
3 from a fourm member (originally produced by someone in Indiana)

A vendor at the All-Cleveland Reptile Show & Sale who was selling Colubrids.

1 CH from a Vendor at the Raleigh Reptile and Exotics Show (First snake)
1 Female Cinnamon from Lawrence at Superior Serpents (Amazing Guy)
1 Male Pastel from Garrick at Crested Gecko.com (Came in with a shipment my roommate got so I didn't actually deal with Garrick directly, great animal though.)
1 Female Pastel het for Hypo from Frank at Coldblooded Novelties (The breeder linked to on Reptile Basic's Page now, awesome guy as well.)

Ron @ www.Rcreptiles.com = albino,mojave,het albinos, large normal females
Jon @ www.coldbloodedaddiction.com = black pastel, normal females, het hypo, spider

got a pastel from a Random!!! and rescued some normal females from a friend that bought them at petco

so far to date ive purchased from Gold Coast (Craig) and Ben Siegel

ralph davis

the guy standing in the dark alley with a long dark trenchcoat and a hat pulled down to cover his face... he's such an upstanding guy!!!

I have bought from various people from small hobbyists to big breeders.

none of them unfortunaltly but maybe soon :)

I've bought great snakes from Mark Petros, George Knaack, Scott Michaels, Jennifer Harrison, Heather Wong, Jeff Lively, Striking Serpents, TexHiss, Steve Markevich, Constrictors Unlimited, Michael Thorn, Ed Clark, and Don Lowrie. Sorry to the couple of good sellers I'm forgetting.

I've had a couple of bad transactions with people I won't mention.

1 from PetCo (before I knew better :oops:)
1 from BHB at a reptile show (loved not paying shipping)
1 from Craig's List
1 rescue that was surrendered at PetCo
Next one.... who knows? If I wanted another Ball Python, it'd probably be 8Ball unless it was a morph he wasn't selling that year. I met Will Bird and liked him, too. I think I would have a tough time deciding between Adam (8Ball), Brian (BHB), and Will (Ectotherms) if it were a snake they all produced. They are all such stand up guys. Of course, another rescue speaks to my heart.

If he sells good animals cheap and lives nearby, I'll buy from him. What alley?

So far I have bought 3 from Adam @ 8 ball
4 from Bob Clark
and a couple of random pickups locally.

8ball Pythons, exclusively from here on. Also NERD, EBN, Morph Makers, and others from shows.

so far, all the bp's I have or are getting are from forum members.
