JnJ reptile?

[wilomn]

Just keep in mind that cars can't get sick. I've yet to hear anyone that resells in high volume talk about their quarantine methods.

And so, as you so cleverly imply, there are none?

Interesting assumption there.

Isn't it ultimately up to the end purchaser to quarantine any snakes that they buy no matter who they come from?

For the record, I've not bought from JnJ but have heard others do so with good experiences.

Not to hijack this thread, but I flip snakes.

Got a problem with that matt?

Personally i think its wrong to do but its a part of the snake industry.

no i dont, houses arent living animals. I think that flipping houses is an interesting job and a way to get the bills payed

No my statement was just a fact. The only one making an assumption was you.

It just seems odd that this information wouldn't be shared; it would probably bring in new business from people who are currently hesitant for such reasons.

I'm not saying its my right to know the business practices of another person but it is my right to not purchase from someone for those reasons.

Hmmmm, a right you say? Interesting. I'd go more with option, but to each his own.

I make no assumptions, merely interpret what I read and there was a heavy implication of a negative nature in your post.

You have a right to your opinion and to express that opinion, but no guarantee that what you write will be read as you think it should.

It is entirely within the realm of possibility that I am incorrect in my interpretation.

But, given your response and the initial statement you made, I doubt it.

Why would you think it's wrong? Virtually EVERYBODY who makes their living in the reptile trade resells animals at one time or another.

I know that there are certain individuals who have been running a campaign to demonize resellers and are trying to make the label 'flipper' into a derogatory term. Don't buy into the hype.

It's not the widespread practice of reselling snakes that is the problem, it's how certain individuals go about it that is the problem.

I know what you mean, its not like i wont buy a flipped snake. The female butter i just bought was a flipped snake. Im not in the anti flipper wagon but i dont really like it.
