Has anyone seen or heard from Midwest Exotic Pets (Art Cerda) lately? I've gotten some nice animals from him in the past, but for some reason he hasn't been at the Lee Watson Reptile Swap lately and his website is down. Should I be concerned or is everything cool?

Dang. I'd love to know if he's going to be at Lee's next swap before I order my next T's to be shipped.

Darn! I noticed the site was down the other day, but thought it was just a temporary glitch. I've been seriously considering getting a couple more S'lings from Art.

I'll bop him an e-mail and see if it goes through and to be sure nothing earth-shattering has happened over there. If I hear anything back I'll let you all know if'n you'll do the same!

Hoping he just went on vacation and all is well.

Wonderful news! I haven't checked the e-mail yet today, but as of this morning had heard Nada.

My vivid imagination had me dreaming his spider collection had revolted and webbed them all up for mealworm ransom or some such! :)

Your imagination is FAR less macabre than mine ;)

Haven't heard from Art in quite some time. I have no idea what it up. I tried contacting him at the end of last year but never had any response.

I just picked up an order from him last week end. He always returned one out of two calls roughly. He works full time plus runs the T business. I did have a large order $$$. But he had alot left from what I saw. I would have brought more home if I had more $$. When you call leave message about who you are what you are wanting and return number if you did not do that already. He prefers for it to be a bit warmer outside as it is pretty cold in Chicago ( as some of you here might already know). I live in central Missouri and that day I went to get my order it was 67 degrees here and near freezing there less than 400 highway miles away there. He still has stock and I got everything I had ordered. He seem friendly even though i was a bit edgy dealing with Chicago traffic on Friday at 5 o'clock ( I don't believe you could sell a vehicle in Chicago for more than 5 dollars if the horn did not work) for those of who live there know what I mean. He appeared to be willing to do busines in the future after it warms up a bit as they have a low pressure cold front moving out only to have another moving in this week over the area.
