    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....

Chuck,

I am very sorry to hear this happened to you and Pet Republic. If there is anything I can do for you let me know. I will keep an eye out on this coast for anyone trying to move any of the animals. I doubt they would contact me as I am to vocal about being against this type of behavior but will try just the same. It really sucks when people have to steal someone else's hard work. Again if there is anything I can do please don't hesitate to ask.
 
THANKS ROB / RK Reptiles

Hi Rob,
With your reputation for doing the right things in the business, both morally and lawfully most would run the other way if they had any stolen or illegal animals. But I do appreciate the offer and your character in the hobby. If we had others like you, I would not have to post adds like this.

Thanks Chuck 407-831-1761

Hey Chuck, just wondering if there is any new news or leads with the theft of your reptiles? Been meaning to come over, but have been busy.
 
And why is this not on the BOI anymore? I see it's on the police blotter forum, but up till now i didn't even know the police blotter forum existed. And it won't get near as much attention in this new forum, imo it should be on both forums.
 
Have there been any updates on these thefts, I notice a couple of them in Orlando recently. I ask because we had an attempted break-in last weekend (our house) ... luckly we where there and I am a supporter of the right to arm myself. We are shopping for some sort of monitoring system now.
 
sorry about the loss

i frequent a few of the more exotic pet stores int eh ft lauderdale area . id be willing to bet it was a local job , but ill keep my eyes open none the less
