    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.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    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....

Well I guess I will say hello too. My name is Jim Hopkins, but most folks just call me Hoppy. I'm 38 married for the past 15 years with two daughters (18 & 14) Yeah, I know those of you doing the math, it doesn't add up right LOL, welcome to the real world LOL,
Here is a picture of me, earning my living, can you guess what I do for a living? It's not what you think, this is where the picture usally gets pulled LOL.
Currently I am home nursing an injured back, but hope to be back at it soon.

I keep and breed about 60 snakes normally and produce a few hundred babies each year, Boas, Corns and now working with some small Aussie Pythons
If you ever get board please feel free to visit my web site, It is not that big or great, just an AOL free space site, but I have been building it for a few years now and have fun with it.
Thanks
Hoppy

Yeah, but I was herper long before I was the fuzz LOL. I posted that picture at Kingsnake once and the Mod there had a heart attack, But it is the only photo of me that I have and it normally gets a good reaction from folks

Localities....

Right now I am working with the Leticia Colombian Boas. I picked up a female and an Anery male from Ben Siegel in 2002 and they should be ready for breeding this next season.
I am Also working with a pair of Guyana Boas, 1.2 Honduran Boas and a pair of Ecudorian Boas. Both the Honduran and Guyana Boas or a few years off, but the Ecudorian Boas should go next year as well.
Thanks

oh sweet!!!!
i have some baranquillas that should go in a year or so and some costa ricans, i am looking for rotans (and i got my hogs many LOL) and possibly some corn islands from gus. other than that i have bolivians, argies and a few other boas
 
That's some serious lighting, that grower was no joke. I was looking at similar lighting for a reef (saltwater fish not REEFER) tank and they ran $1000+. Good job on the bust.
 
LOL, that IS a great pic!!! ;)

I blew out a disk in my back a couple of years ago.....I understand how NOT fun back injuries are!! And yeah....I learned to actually listen to my ddoc when he told me what NOT to do, lol. So take it easy, and you'll heal faster!
