    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

If a female is, according to the last owner, 3 yo but only 243gms would you breed her? The last owner was a breeder and this is a friend's snake now. She hasn't been bred before but the male has. Not that that is really relevant....it is her size that concerns us. At 3yo is she gonna grow much more anyway?

Just a datapoint for you... When Kathy Love listed several years worth of breeding data in the Cornsnake Manual, the original minimum breeding weight was 200g and was later rasied to 240g for better results. So... the data provided in the CSM suggests that you'd be alright with breeding a 240g 3 year old, providing she's in good health.
