I could never imaging anyone who’s researched superdwarf and sd/d crosses ever going anywhere else other than Garrett. Reach Out Reptiles IS the top. I love my girl Leda. I love that she had the very best start to life not only for her health but also for her disposition. She’s never struck at us and she just wants to interact with us and explore all of the time. Couldn’t ask for a better animal and I know it’s because of the start she got with reach out reptiles.

I can personally attest to your ethics. I made the decision to buy a SD. You asked where I lived and I told you south Florida. It was an immediate “no, it’s illegal there to have them”. I knew that but in my excitement, I had forgotten. I really appreciated your honesty and wouldn’t have dreamed of asking you to “do it anyway”. Which I know you would’ve refused. Lol. Ethical breeders are so important!!!🐍❤️🐍

This isn't something either me or the breeder I bought my ball python from did, but it does sort of imply a lot about other buyers. I went to 2 reptile shows before I actually bought my BP to talk to breeders and ask for their feedback on husbandry and care. The day I bought my bp, before I finished the transaction, I talked to the breeder and asked if my enclosure and husbandry that I'd already set up sounded okay. Every single time, breeders commended me for doing my research and preparing ahead of time--which implies that most buyers don't! That's a little scary to think about, given how delicate some snakes or other reptiles can be, or how large some enclosures need to be! So I guess to buyers: don't impulse buy!

All very good points. The one about the response times, and appropriate hours to call is very relevant to pretty much everyone these days. Some people expect everyone who wants to sell something, no matter if it's a business or just someone selling something on craigslist or Facebook, to be available whenever they want them to be. When it comes to businesses, a lot of people have forgotten (or in the case of younger people, have never known) the concept of normal business hours. I'm just old enough to remember when a lot of stores weren't even open on Sundays.

Just don´t! It could be house, car, clothes, pet, breeding stock... anything. It you think you could regret the buy... don´t buy. 3) I love your videos... And the information in them. 4) Even if somebody has (or can) vote for others by not buying off you... they can have been watching your videos on youtube and can even be a Patreon...

How about what a lot of popular pattern designers (knit/crochet/sewing) do. They have an automatic response that says "Thank you for your question about the pattern you purchased"/"Thank you for the inquiry about the patterns and services we offer" followed by, someone will personally respond to you within 48/72 business hours. Our business hours are "xyz". If you can't wait that long, please see our FAQ or check out our forums "here" to see if your question has already been asked & answered. It's not weird in the US and Canada at least to expect longer hours for a retail business as well as weekend hours. But depending on the retail business, its also not weird to expect earlier hours or later hours or to be closed during some week days to offset the weekend. My local yarn shop used a similar response since they weren't open before noon during the week and were closed half day on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. So, if an email was sent Friday evening, a reasonable response could come Wednesday afternoon and still be "48 business hours". Just something to think about. People deal with insecurities and a lot of people deal with intrusive thoughts. That's not your problem, I know... but if something simple can be done to mitigate intrusive thoughts about how your business treats them... I think its worth doing.

It is nice to know the person you’re buying from has your back… Now of course I’m not saying that means an immediate response at 1am or something unreasonable. Also, there are breeders who I know I would buy snakes from forever, because they took time to answer questions after I purchased from them, and I know they don’t have to do that.

I think that idea might backfire unless the overseas employees are super dwarf owners/fans themselves prior to hire. You can train someone in all of the possible ways they can respond to only a very limited number of questions that you assume a customer may ask. Once they receive questions outside of that training or their own knowledge base, then you receive weekend questions from them instead of your customers which is against the point. Although if strong instructions for a 'what to do if the question can't be answered' protocol is taught alongside super dwarf knowledge then that may remedy the issue. Having the employee may help in customer retention for those who would be fine with working through out of hours service, but that's assuming that the accent isn't so bad that the English is inaudible. More than likely you will get the same level of frustration either way and it's way cheaper to set up an automated message stating your hours of operation and that you do NOT reply to inquiry outside of working hours.

i understand what u are saying about supporting the wrong places with your money, but bottom line is most people are going to buy from who ever has the best price unless they know for sure there is something wrong with the animal then they would stay away. If the best breeders had lower prices we would avoid this hole issue but then the breeders would say that they don't make enough money, it would be amazing to meet a breeder who just does it for there love of the animal and not to get rich and would sell at prices normal people can afford with out going broke. i know probably gonna be an on popular opinion but its how i feel. This is for all breeders not just in the reptile world cats dogs ect there all priced way to high any more its crazy.

Should I re-watch the video to answer each of your "5 things that..." hmm... 1. do not be a "know-it-all" even if you think you know everything there is to know about ... "whatever" not even though you "know" you are the acknowledged foremost authority in the world... 2. No knows everything there is to know... not even the moment he or she dies. Never expect others to break the law for you. Just do not. Be honest and follow the law, both where you live and where you are. It is just common sense and best policy. 3. Know what you want and can do as in following the laws... I for one, can not keep a reptile at all... No one is allowed to send me a reptile and I am not allowed to bring a reptile into the country I live in. Yes, there are no reptiles in my country at all. (Only birds that either - or both fly to here or hatch here) 4. Expectations from customers and would be customers later.... First you look into each "sale-offer" and you do what you can to find out how the "breeder" thinks about his animals and look after them. You also look at the prices the breeder wants for his animals and the animals the breeder has for sale. You look at every breeder and animal for sale... and if you "fall for a single animal" that is the animal you buy... regardless of who is selling. Being happy over the animal you buy is the most important thing. Do not buy an animal you will (possible) regret buying. And are you really buying a living breathing being even if that living being is not a human? I say no. No one can buy a living breathing being at all. What you do, is paying for the care the animal has gotten and the animals parents have gotten till now. It should be clear to every human on this planet that we do not own others... we decide to take care of them, feed them, house them, teach them, and respect them. Unfortunately too many humans think they have "the right" to control and "own" others... regardless to what others think... this is a pet peeve of mine... Two cats live at my house, I give them food and they give me company... I do not own them... nor are they my pets... I have responsibilities to them and others around me, because of them.... We as a species do need to think about this... we do not own the planet nor do we... (ok. I stop now) 5. If you are looking at many possible animals and have to choose one or two... pay the "breeder" who you trust most. it is just common sense. 6. Every other person has his or hers own live to life and can actually be busy. I know... how mad is that? Others think, others wonder, others look at things and come to a conclusion about the situation that can be totally different to the conclusion you reached! NO! No way! (Actually better to think... the conclusion others reach is more likely to be different that your conclusion than the same as yours. I´ll stop here and now.

I think the most annoying thing some breeders do on KZbin is the clickbait heading 🤦🏼♀️. It’s lying and completely misleading. I get it, how important views are but it just makes them untrustworthy to me.

Had to get rid of my small collection about 10 plus years ago. I'm buying a house in the next year so I'm definitely buying a snake or two from you.
