The thing about a business the size of BHB...there WILL be negative reports. Period. No one is perfect and mistakes will happen. When you have as many different customers as someone like BHB, then those mistakes are that much more likely to make it to the public ear.

More often than not, we hear bits and pieces of such stories and rarely ever get a full picture of exactly what happened and what was done to correct it.

I've met Brian on several different occasions and seen his animals at those shows. They're beautiful and healthy, from everything I've ever seen. I've known people that have visited his facilities and never heard a bad report from any of them.

There is ALWAYS a small risk when buying live animals...no matter who you buy from. I trust that buying from Brian is a sure way to keep those risks very small.
Of course I will quarantine but the thing is I rather have a good looking healthy snake during the first two weeks that I had it instead of having mites or RI during the first two weeks. The other two snakes that I have so far have been from breeders and I got them perfectly healthy, no mites, or RI during the quarantine process (finished now). But if I see a snake from a breeder like BHB and during the first two weeks I see all sorts of problems, I would lose total respect for BHB.
