Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
I just want to know, do you guys like LLLReptile? I've heard a lot of great reviews, but I'm not sure I like LLLReptile a whole lot.
I ordered a juvi corn snake from them, and it shipped on time, but there were issues. He was very thin when i got him. He was a bit aggressive, but that didn't worry me too much. I kinda expected a little aggression. But, the next day, I went to check on him, and there was a weird clear goo substance in his cage. I cleaned it up, and just four days later, he died!! I contacted LLLReptile about the issue several times, and they never would reply. So I was stuck with a dead snake and a wasted 150 bucks.
Was this just a one-time freak mistake, or does this happen often? I don't think I'll be buying from them anymore.

I think this is a hate spam and nothing more. Not the right reason to join.

I agree. Besides you can do a lot to a snake in 4 days that could cause it to die. Especially someone who is obviously inexperienced.

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
Tell us all the details about how you housed the snake, will help us advise where the fault (if any, some animals arent meant to live) lies.

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
Wouldn't the husbandry have to be like, TERRIBLE to kill a corn snake in 4 days Unless housing it in a freezer, I don't see how the OP could have killed a corn in 4 days. That being said, I never ordered from LLL Reptiles so I can't comment on that.

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
Do you happen to have any pics of the corn? Like what it looked like when you first got it and over the next few days?

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
I would be interested in know what this "weird clear goo substance" is, did it come from the snake or did something toxic/poisonous accidently get in the enclosure ?

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
I bought a ball python from them, I was young but he was star gazing what not, and died after 2 days. Luckily I didn't have any other snakes at the time.

If you think it was IBD then wouldn't they have to get a whole new collection?

Re: Hi Guys!! I wanna know..
I got a Diamond x jungle Carpet from them three years ago and have never had a issue with it. But i have heard some really bad and good review on them. To kill a corn snake in four days you would have to be trying to kill it. My guess is it had issues before you got it or something happen during shipping.
