I work out of my house.. So there are a rare few that get to come by and see the snakes. Its not so much for the health of the snakes but more for my piece of mind..I have some priceless animals that I'd rather not come up missing. Now I'm sure that 99.995% of the people that I have to turn down are just fine..However its that .005 percent that would cost me tens of thousands of dollars in animals if I had to replace them.
Its nothing personal I'm sure but understand they not allowing walk in having people over is after all their prerogative I think you even have to make an appointment with NERD to see their stuff . Not every breeder lets people just come over and cruse their racks on a whim .
