    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....

today at 12 PM I went to check on my reptiles to find that my 17 foot albino burmese python has Died. Reasons of Power outage while I was out of town.

Me and her were featured in Numberal Papers. and did many shows I cant Believe this has happened.

It really breaks me Down I have other herps but none can take her place they all have their own in my heart.

I am not in the mood for anything and It makes me loose intrest in the hobbya bit,But I just need time and hope,I due plan on getting another large burm or retic in the future, Its just I went threw so much with Tinky, Rest in Peace babe. Travis

Wow Jeremy! I am sorry to hear this. In 1994, I lost my collection due to mother nature (eathquake) and lost all of my prized Burms. Make some time for yourself to grieve and do what you can to overcome the loss. It took me 10 years to get over my losses and even touch a snake again, so I can relate to how you feel. I never wanted to see another reptile as long as I lived, but, I am thankful that I decided to come back into a hobby that I love more than anything. To this day, I still have not touched a large BOID other than a boa. Good luck sir.
