    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....

Temps on your neonates?

I have read quite a few various opinions on what temps to keep your 3+ month old boa's at and was curious as to everyone's opinions here. As most know, I just got back into this hobby about 5 months ago and have purchased only adults animals. Well, I went to the NARBC show in Chicago and came home with an argentine het for T and a snow boa from Bill Gaines that are both around 3-4 months in age. I have a small neo rack that I am using. It is in an 82 degree room. I can run some flexwatt along the back but again, I have heard a lot of people don't use flexwatt on their babies only ambient temps. Thughts?

I have always kept the babies at the same ambient as the older animals. The only exception is during the winter months. Although I don't "cool" my adults, I do allow a small drop in temps. I make sure to add supplemental heat to the young ones during those periods.
