Hammer Apr 05, 2005 06:32 AM

Hi Hammer:

I was wondering if you can pass along an undate regarding your bad dealings with a certain company that delt you the famous "Frankencobra"

Cheers!

Yes... The 20th of this month is the date.

By the way, any news on the bank yet? I saw your booth in Hamburg but never saw anyone there to talk to. I'm ready, willing and able to pay up! Once again, great work.

Hi Hammer:

I was at the show by myself, so on occassion I would wander around or hit the head.

Regarding NEAVB: I will make a formal announcement later this week. We will be accepting memberships at the Hamburg show. Matt and I have a few more hurtles to jump with the FDA..they only have an 8 PAGE... SOP to "request" a meeting...yes just a meeting! ..etc...anyway almost ready to go..

Thanks,

Al

All I can suggest is email a few ball python importers. Alan Bosch had thousands come in DOA due to a shipping error a couple years ago. The only problem with this is that they are usually babies and you need a lot per feeding.

My O. H.'s regard balls as good friends. They'd probably "mourn" if a dead one were tossed in.

That's interesting-A few breeders I have emailed said that balls were the OH's "favorites"-have you tried contacting Glades or Diamond about DOA rattlers? That might be an option too, and it doesn't take as much work to find a "big" rattlesnake as it does with the small python species. Might be worth a try if they don't all get sold for taxidermy(I know of a couple people that buy captive deaths and stuff them.)

i dont want to hijack this thread but where do they get their snakes? i'm doing a skeleton project and am looking for various species to put to gether for that project.
thanks
