    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....

I am being overrun with rodents...

Thats an awsoem idea. I just added 2 more 20's and 4 tens. I am going to have to do something....
 
I don't see how you guys can stand raising rodents in aquariums. Cleaning them is a chore, and I hate water bottles with a passion. Having to check and/or fill them every day is a real pain for me.

I raise my rodents in lidless racks with feed hoppers and automatic watering systems. The resevoirs are filled twice a week, and a 20 tub rack can be cleaned in about 30 minutes. So for my maybe an hour a week of time I can produce 750 mice a month if I run the rack at full capacity.

You guys are far more dedicated to it than I am. If I had to go back to aquariums and water bottles, I'd just start buying feeders again.
 
You are right for sure, I cant build anything, well I can but I would hvae mice and rats running through my house like in the moviess...Hey Clay Ill send ya materials and you build it and ill come pick it up???
 
I don't have that problem...

My girlfriend does all the cleaning and feeding so I really don't have to worry she gets alittle mad when her "pets" disappear.
