BTS breeder websites? (captivebred.com)
I'm not sure if it's allowed because I'm not really advertising, but I'm wondering if anyone else has ordered a BTS from captivebred.com. That's where I got Plinko, and Donna was really wonderful to work with. I mostly see users who buy from other users, or get them at pet stores (wildcaught/captiveborn). I also feel that most of the users know of most of the breeders (especially Northerns) and I was just wondering if anyone knows the people from captivebred.com

I don't know the people from the website. I do know people who have received their skinks from them though

I don't know them personally but I did exchange emails with Donna a few times, and found her to be nice.

That is one of the recommended breeders here. The only reason they are not seen more/spoken more of is that they don't really have a "presence" on this website or other forums...but they are good people (that I do NOT know personally, nor have I met), but I have heard nothing but good about them.

I've been e-mailing Donna back and forth about Plinko's growth and progress, and she loves hearing about him! I love having contact with the breeder just to let them know how their little bub is doing sometimes

If you're in contact with her, I'd be happy to add here to the recommended breeders page if you can get me the info she wants up there (if she cares to advertise here). Like Jason said, if they don't have a presence on the forum then they are generally overlooked, but there are lots of great breeders and very experienced people out there that don't participate here or on other forums.

Only dealing I have had with them is when they purchased my northerns. Very easy people to deal with. Wouldnt hesitate to do business with them again.

Donna is very nice, and does very well with her skinks. I have done business with her over the years, and she has always been great to deal with.

Re: BTS breeder websites? (captivebred.com)
I'm a little late to this party, but I got Grinkin from Donna at Captivebred in 2005! I loved doing business with her, and even went back a couple years later when my cousin decided he wanted one. He ended up buying one of her babies as well, and of course everything went wonderfully.
Had I not been so darn impatient (wait for baby season? HA!) I would probably have gone back to her again this year.
She seemed very happy with my constant updates and pictures of Grinkin as he grew. I enjoyed keeping in touch and just letting her know that he was still safe and happy. :B
