What he is asking is have any of you who are so openly arrogant about me being such a bad person with IBD snakes ever bought from me!
I will answer the question for you since it is being avoided. The answer is NO see people like to take an (opinion) which we all know what those are like and run with it. Try to follow this example: Because Jill's boyfriends, sister's, best friends, dad's, girlfriends, brother's, Bosses, ex-wives, sisters, boyfriend- said that he heard I did Bubba wrong or had something that didn't look right, then I must be scum. What is funny is that when you talk straight to bubba about the situation the story is not as you heard it. I have had 1 person who claims he bought a snake from me many years ago that had IBD. After talking to the vet and the kid on several ocassions, It was discovered that I did not even sell him the snake, just as I claimed the entire time. Joe my friend who it still hard for me. If I had IBD in my collection it would not be the government who we would be worried about shutting our industry down. With the number of snakes that I produce and sell ever year from my facilities. I would be what was feared. As I have said many times before, I have done my research and homework about the disease. I even went to Gainsville to The University of Florida where the disease was discovered and talked with Pete himself. Pythons can not live with the disease or be carriers of the disease. If I had IBD I would have been out of business along time ago, along with a large mass of the reptile community. Stop bustin' my balls over something that is bullcrap. We are 1/3 through this month and I have already shipped out over 80 snakes this month, I also sold/traded over 130 snake at the Hamburg show. I have a guy flying in and picking up over 40 more this weekend. On top of all this I have over 100 eggs hatching this week alone. Bottomline is that I could not continue to have successful breeding seasons with unhealthy, not cared for or diseased snakes. Anyone who has bred snakes can testify to that. You have to be doing everything right and still have either good luck or God on your side to pull it off.
